The company was started in 1981 with Karen Millen and Kevin Stanford selling plain white shirts to friends. By 1983, the pair had opened a boutique in Kent. By 2009, the brand became part of Aurora Fashions which owns other brands in the UK. Today the brand is under the Creative Director Gemma Metheringham who oversees a team of twelve designers that work solely on the label’s ready to wear, accessories and lingerie collections.

This ribbon slot bra is £40.00 and the matching knicker is £22.00. With a full design shop like Karen Millen, you can also pick up these red satin sandals for £135.00.

The team produces two main collections and two transitional collections each season – within each collection are eight stories that cover day, work, occasion and week-end. Everything in the collections is designed in-house from the lace used in the label’s famed eveningwear to the embossed hardware on the statement bags. In-house pattern cutters complete the team and help to perfect the flattering fit for which the brand is famed.

This animal set has a bra for £36.00, string for £16.00, and suspender for £22.00.

With a strong sense of British style, the Karen Millen brand is expanding outward. The brand can be found in 29 countries with 93 stores in the UK and another 135 stores around the world. You can find Karen Millen on Facebook and Twitter.

This is the Ava with bra, string, and knicker options for £46.00, £22.00, and £24.00 respectively.

We want you to be able to wear the sexy styles you love, even if you don’t have the budget for the big-ticket items! The theme this time is animal prints. As always, there are links below the images to the website where you can buy each piece – whether you choose to splurge or save.

The pretty, sexy and yet affordable collection combines the glamour of sculpted silk corsetry with the delicacy of French Chantilly lace and the minimal understatement of smooth touch essentials. The pictures I could find over at Figleaves are somewhat small, and seeing as Karen Millen doesn’t really have a serious PR-team, it’s very hard getting better quality images… Sorry!

I’m on the lookout though — and am also very interested in hearing opinions on these! Seeing as I haven’t had the chance to try these myself, ANY info is welcome!

In the mean time — enjoy the smaller Figleaves-images: they’re all we’ve got for now! ;) Want to go shopping? Check Figleaves!
