French lingerie on display in London

After New York in August 2024, French lingerie is heading to London's Ladbroke Hall on July 14 for a one-day event organized by Promincor - Lingerie Française, the association for the promotion of the corsetry industry, and DEFI - Comité de Développement et de Promotion de l'Habillement. The event will bring together buyers, media, and influencers to showcase French know-how.
Eight French lingerie brands will be taking part in the event: Aubade, Chantelle, Chantelle X, Empreinte, Lise Charmel, Louisa Bracq, Maison Lejaby, and Simone Pérèle. On this occasion, they will unveil their spring-summer 2026 lingerie and swimwear collections in an atmosphere claimed to be "intimate and refined."
The day will open with a "tea time", encouraging authentic exchanges between brands and influencers. A scenographic showroom will allow visitors to discover the pieces in a carefully designed setting before a lingerie fashion show that will highlight the wealth of styles, cuts, and inspirations specific to each brand.
According to a Kantar study carried out for the Salon International de la Lingerie and the Fédération de la Maille, de la Lingerie et du Balnéaire, the French women's lingerie market represented 2.08 billion euros between January and October 2024.

Strike by French air traffic controllers disrupts summer travel

The DGAC civil aviation authority has asked airlines to cancel some of their flights to ensure there are enough controllers on duty. The strike affected air traffic across Western Europe. Ryanair, Europe's largest airline, said on Thursday it was forced to cancel 170 flights, affecting 30,000 passengers. "Once again, European families are being held hostage by French air traffic controllers," said Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary. The Airlines for Europe association, which includes Ryanair, Air France-KLM, Lufthansa, British Airways and EasyJet, described the action as "intolerable". According to sources familiar with the matter, 270 air traffic controllers out of a total workforce of around 1,400 went on strike. UNSA-ICNA, the second biggest labour group in the sector, launched the action to demand better working conditions and more staff. It was joined by the third largest union, USAC-CGT. Shortly after 10 am on Thursday, flights were experiencing significant delays, including an average of 1.5 hours for arrivals and 1 hour for departures in Nice, France's third-largest airport. A quarter of flights departing from or arriving at Paris Charles de Gaulle and Paris Orly have also been cancelled. Airports in the south were particularly hit. In addition to Nice, 30 percent of flights have been cancelled in cities including Lyon, Marseille, and Montpellier. On the eve of the school holidays on Friday, the situation is expected to become even more tense at Paris airports and Beauvais, where the DGAC has ordered a 40-percent reduction in the number of flights. On Thursday morning, the Eurocontrol monitoring agency warned airlines of "significant" delays in the airspace managed by the air traffic control centres in Marseille, Brest and Reims. Sources said that business aviation, particularly in Nice and Le Bourget near Paris, has also been significantly affected. France's transport minister called the unions' demands unacceptable. "The demands made by minority unions are unacceptable, as is the decision to hold this strike at the start of the holiday season," Philippe Tabarot said on Wednesday. © 2025 AFP

French air traffic controller strike forces Ryanair to cancel 170 flights

Ryanair said on Thursday it was forced to cancel 170 flights, disrupting travel for more than 30,000 passengers, due to a nationwide air traffic controller strike in France planned for later in the day and Friday. The disruption comes at the start of Europe 's summer holidays, one of the busiest travel periods of the year. The French civil aviation agency DGAC on Wednesday asked multiple carriers to reduce flights at Paris airports by 40% on July 4 due to the planned strike. "In addition to flights to/from France being cancelled, this strike will also affect all French overflights," Ryanair said in a statement on Thursday. Passengers overflying French airspace from the United Kingdom to Greece and Spain to Ireland would also be affected, the Irish carrier said. Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary called on European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to take urgent action to reform European Union air traffic controllers' services.

Poll suggest Europeans want tougher Big Tech EU enforcement

The majority of French, Spanish, and German citizens want stricter EU enforcement of Big Tech, according to a new YouGov survey. Almost two-thirds in France (63%), 59% in Germany, and 49% in Spain said EU enforcement of laws addressing Big Tech's influence and power is too relaxed, when asked to choose between too relaxed, too strict, or about right. Only 7% of respondents in France, 8% in Germany, and 9% in Spain felt the enforcement was too strict. The survey, commissioned by two NGOs—People vs Big Tech and WeMove Europe—follows the EU's 2022 adoption of the Digital Services Act (DSA) and Digital Markets Act (DMA), aimed at regulating tech giants' impact on users and the marketplace. Both regulations are caught up in the trade dispute between the EU and the US, in which the US has described the DSA and DMA as unjustified non-tariff barriers. EU Competition Commissioner Teresa Ribera told Euronews last week that the EU would not give in to US pressure on the issue. 'We are going to defend our sovereignty,' Ribera said, adding: 'We will defend the way we implement our rules, we will defend a well functioning market and we will not allow anyone to tell us what to do.' Surprisingly, the survey results also show that the survey participants believed Big Tech holds more power than the EU itself. Half of French respondents (50%), 48% in Germany, and a majority in Spain (55%) believe that Big Tech companies are 'more powerful' or 'slightly more powerful' than the EU. In contrast, only 9% in France, 12% in Germany, and 15% in Spain think tech giants are 'slightly less powerful' or 'much less powerful.' The survey was conducted on a sample of 2,070 respondents in France, 2,323 in Germany, and 2,077 in Spain.
