Lingerie generally is traditional, feminine, functional, or sporty. Rarely is it considered avant garde. Nona De Samim is trying to change that perception with her N De Samim collection. She ignores the line between underwear and outerwear and peppers her designs with unexpected cutouts that frame a peephole into the feminine form. She designs shirts, dresses, slips, robes, and knickers (sometimes shoes too — at least on her shopping site).
Nona is influenced by history, specifically 16th century France.
Nona De Samim is available online at Glamorous Amorous. New collections should be available soon and TLP will be bringing them to you. Pictures courtesy of Nona De Samim.
