Karen Thompson founded Lace Silhouettes Lingerie in 1988 when she opened the flagship store in Peddler’s Village in beautiful Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Thompson was passionate about creating an intimate apparel brand that went beyond the average shopping experience to truly satisfy what women want – personalized, knowledgeable service, a welcoming, comfortable environment, and affordable luxury that makes them feel beautiful and confident. She had a vision for a store where real women would experience a truly remarkable shopping environment, and where every customer would be treated like a friend, as though they were “a guest in our home”.
