Something Blue by Jessie-Lou

Jess Clatworthy asked TLP to take down the photos in this article, and we complied. For archiving reasons we have decided to keep this article alive on our site, but out of respect for the designer we have taken off all photos and links.

Jessica Clatworthy is the young UK designer behind Jessie-Lou. Recently, Jessica released Something Blue. The collection takes inspiration from Marie Antoinette. Jessica went to The Museum of Costume at Bath and The Wallace Collection in London for first hand research. Noting a gap in the market for exclusive bridal lingerie, Jessica crafted Something Blue combining 18th Century styling and bridal wear to produce a stunning mix-and-match collection of silk and lace lingerie, finished by hand with Swarovski crystals. Jessica is a product of the De Montfort school and even includes her hand sketches along with the finished product so you can witness both ends of the “from sketch to sale” process.

This bra is made from two kinds of gold Leavers lace. It includes an adjustable halter neck with small gold component fastening. Matching the bra, a frilly tie side thong has been designed, with the same lace frill to the back of the thong.

• Lace Soft Bra £49.77
• Frill Back Knicker £56.84

This corset is the star of the collection. Like many pieces in this collection, Jessica uses gold brocade piping between the boned seams, Leavers lace overlay, and a quilted hip panel. This piece may be worn as outwear for a wedding or just as lingerie.

• Corset £147.45
• Tie-Side Knicker £46.90

This elegant nightdress has a loose fit for extra comfort with a hand made cover button opening at the centre back to slip on with ease. With adjustable rouleau straps, this piece is very accommodating and is perfect for the bride whilst getting ready for the big day.

• Nightdress £64.67
