Editorial Review for Panty Raid – by Kim Cooper
In Short
Silver Lake gals don't have to head over the hill for their scanties when this comfy, funky and very independent undie emporium is open daily. The roomy, pup-friendly shop features a sexy, mid-range collection of imported and domestic bras, panties, stockings, sleepwear, slips and foundation garments from makers like Hanky Panky, Cosabella, Felina, Huit and Spanx. Everything's displayed for easy browsing, and Jen and Jessica are incredibly knowledgeable about stock, sizing and care instructions.

I have been to Panty Raid for the last time and it truly saddens me. I live in SIlverlake and have enjoyed shopping at Panty Raid in the past, but the rudeness of the staff has reached an unbearable level. I went in to buy some new lingerie, not deal with snotty clerks who roll their eyes at me and call me "sweetie" in a condescending tone, not to mention the bad advice when it came to fitting me for a bra. I considered contacting the owner, to let her know how her clientele was being treated by her staff, but discovered that the girl I assumed was a salesgirl, is actually the manager. They carry lovely things and have a fabulous selection, but the reason to go to a store like this is for service... I think I'll stick with the internet.
Pros: fabulous selection
Cons: terribly rude, incompetent staff

I recently joined my wife on one of her frequent trips to this store, and now see why she shops here. The items she purchases are always very pretty but not tacky. As a man, it can be intimidating to go into a lingerie store, but I felt very comfortable here. The displays are very modern and really show off the wares well. The staff seemed very helpful, and once again my wife was made happy. I may even come back on my own when her birthday comes around.
