For over a decade Lisette Limoges has been designing women’s pant for every body. From Oprah to Kathy Lee Gifford these are pants designed to flatter. Lisette founded her company after many years of working in sales, her goal was to design a pant that was not only fashion forward but comfortable. I can say from personal experience she has met her goals. I love my Lisette pants because simply put – they fit me! I am a lady with curves so pants are a little bit of a challenge.
Lisette Limoges and her husband Neil Small, who was already in the g
arment industry, decided to open a company of ladies pants as they were forever being asked for a pant with a great fit and couldn’t supply one to their customers so they decided to design their own. Now their son David and daughter Kathryn also work for the company.
“The origin of Lisette L Montréal came from my desire to create a fashion line for mature women where the fit came first. Of course, we wanted to make sure we were creating styles that were on-trend, but we wanted pants that fit right”, says Limoges.
West Islanders are in luck since we have a full selection of Lisette L. Montreal styles at our fingertips right here at Moda Elle in thePlaza Pointe Claire. Not to mention they are up to 70% off right now!!
“Moda Elle has carried Lisette since the beginning, her husband Neil was a sales rep of mine before creating the company and asked me to carry the pants when he and Lisette started,” explained Moda Elle owner Karen Alguire. “I now have an extensive selection of styles, I can honestly say that I am sure that I have the largest selection of any store, and it has become one of my primary lines.”
The pants are designed with a tummy control mesh on the inside and come in a variety of colours and patterns. The line has expanded to now cover pants, capris, shorts, skirts, skorts, and while still mainly bottoms they also do blazers, blouses, and tops. All of Lisette’s bottoms have the “flattery” fit and offer tummy control.
Moda Elle carries all sizes ranging from 0-16, xs-xl, and a few styles in oversize.
