A new store called Fiamour Lingerie opens today in Carytown.

A the corner of West Cary and Belmont Avenue, Fiamour is a shop that carries lingerie from different countries all over the world. It also carries a very wide range of sizes, from very petit to full figured, for women who have struggled to find garments in their size.

Said Fiamour owner Sheri Harabedian, "I'm one of those people. That's a big part of why I opened up this store. I find women are frustrated. They don't know where to go, they don't know where to look, so we made that really easy."

Fiamour also carries garments for women who have had mastectomies.

The store will host bridal showers and shopping parties after hours.
