Sale ends soon! Up to 50% off stock ranges, and there's still a few sets under £100. The Lilje collection would be perfect for Valentine's day ❤ fine French lace and satin trims make an irresistible combination!
Super excited to be doing another @underpinningsmuseum photoshoot with @tigzrice at the end of the month, I think it's been well over a year since our last archive shoot! 😱 The museum doesn't have a whole lot of shooting budget right now so I'm already in a flap trying to pick which garments to prioritise. There are SO many incredible new acquisitions that it feels like trying to pick a favourite child. What do you think we should prioritise? 🖤 If you enjoy what the museum does and want to help us expand our *free* access and detailed online collection, please consider joining our Patreon or throwing some pennies our way via the PayPal donate button 💵 Here are some of my personal highlights from the last year: 1950s couture waspie interior with silk velvet casings. 1930s Kestos brand girdle. 1900s wounded silk corset. 1910s silk step in trimmed with silk lace. 1930s suspender belt adjuster detail. 1890s corset busk closure engraving. Late 1700s padded silk garters with metal springs.
Lacing up my 'Trinity' wedding corset, a collaboration between @vanyanis, @sparklewren and @popantique 🖤 You can read more about this beautiful creation on my Patreon: bit.ly/trinitycorset Clip taken from my beautiful wedding video by @michaljumek
The Violente corset from 2017. Bobbinet tulle and silk duchesse, embellished with hand stitched lace appliqué and Swarovski crystals. Not for sale, but something similar can always be custom made for you ❤
Throwback to 2015, my first full lingerie collection after graduating from my BA. I will forever have a soft spot for the Daniela lingerie set and Erika corset, a mix of contemporary French leavers lace and antique silk lace. I need to bring this bralet style back, I still love the shape. 📷 @jtuliniemi, Model @__ephyra__, 💄 @jade_eleanor
I made this cape for my wedding day; obviously I *love* it, but it's been very polarising with everyone else! This fine chantilly lace is so wonderfully decadent ❤ You can order your own cape in this style under 'bespoke' in my online shop, in your choice of lace colour. I can also make a simpler cape design and am always happy to recommend other laces to suit particular budgets 😊 I'd love to make more capes (and matching tap pants!) this year and my order books are filling up fast, so get in touch soon if you're interested. 📷 by amazing @tigzrice
