About CharmaineLouise New York, Inc. ®
Hand-crochet. Reinvented. ™

Welcome to the luxurious and glamorous lifestyle of CharmaineLouise.

Charmaine Louise Shelton loves all things classic with an elegant, feminine, and of course sexy edge. Her outfit of choice is a cashmere sweater with silk camisole, pencil skirt, and fishnets with stilettos—combining all elements for an effortlessly chic style.

While recuperating from a fall and lounging around her home in a leg cast, Charmaine yearned to dump the androgynous sweatpants and to express her sexiness and femininity. To occupy her time, Charmaine taught herself the art of crochet, loving the beauty and intricacy that allowed her to create the perfect solution, sumptuous loungewear that also transitions to stylish ready-to-wear. Versatile chic at its best!

CharmaineLouise debuted in 2005. Inspired by the sylph swans and buxom bombshells of the past and present, Charmaine created the collection for the sophisticate: hence, the line names Diana, Lena, Ginger, and Jackie.

CharmaineLouise offers timeless, effortlessly chic pieces whose versatility transforms them from intimate apparel to ready-to-wear—the possibilities are infinite. The high-end items are hand-crocheted by skilled artisans in only the most sumptuous Mongolian cashmere and silk hand-dyed yarns. Each line is unique with its signature crochet stitch. All made with the discerning woman in mind who prefers to set the trend, not to follow it.

The appeal of the collection is that it is made with the motivation to enhance the wearer’s innate femininity and to increase the wearer’s allure to their significant other. As one client says, “The feel is sensuous and I feel sexy.” Fait accompli!
