This sumptuous Boutique Bridal line is Kiki by Kirsty Doyle’s first Bridal lingerie collection. Perfect for summer weddings, Kirsty is rightfully proud of this new step for her label.

Luxurious ivory silks that are elegantly embellished and use of silk chiffon for these beautiful pieces creates a demure yet alluring look, perfect for the modern bride.

Designer Kirsty Doyle says of her first Bridal collection: “Many brides want something truly unique for their wedding day, the Boutique Bridal collection has been created for a contemporary bride who wants stand out pieces that are undeniably feminine.”

Stand-out pieces from the collection include a selection of mini corsets adorned with luxury oversized bows or trimmed with feathers for a truly unique bridal look that can be worn under wedding dresses or treasured for the honeymoon.

“Getting married is such an exciting time and with many brides putting such careful thought into their dresses, they often forget about their lingerie. I wanted to create a lingerie collection that was as special and memorable as any wedding dress and yet was still fun and seductive.”

The collection is available from www.kikibykirstydoyle.com and Apartment C, London with prices starting at £60 for a pair of silk frillies up to £200 for a cream velvet cape with silk ties.

Mandolina — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 23:30:12 +0000

You devote hours searching for your dream dress, you try countless ways to wear your hair, and agonize for ages over the right lipstick shade and the height of your heels – but it’s easy to overlook the essential that will truly support you on your special day – perfect lingerie.

Shape up perfectly on your special day

If you take care in your selection, you’ll be well rewarded. With the right underwear, the hang of your dress will improve, you’ll look slimmer and walk taller. Even better – your intimate secret will bestow you with confidence that radiates into a beautiful glow.

Do allow plenty of time to try various styles and do ensure you get the right size – it will make a world of difference.

Agent Provocateur’s New Bridal Collection

Kelly — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 10:38:15 +0000

Agent Provocateur has just released their new bridal collection, called “The Brides of Ulysses.” This provacative new collection is inspired by the adventures of Ulysses – in the Greek myth, Ulysses was sailing a vessel of betrothed virgins and had to be tied to the ship’s mast to avoid being lured away by the songs of the sirens. Looking at this collection, I think it’s safe to say that you will be as irresistable as those sirens when you are dressed in The Brides of Ulysses lingerie! Of course, if you have someone tied up while showing your new purchases off, it would be nice to let him free eventually. Lingerie isn’t about resisting temptation, after all

To celebrate this new collection, Agent Provocateur is opening up select boutiques for you to host a bridal shower! The bridal showers ensure your party exclusive use of the store between 6:00-8:00pm, where you will enjoy complimentary champagne and canapés, a special gift with purchase for all the guests, and a decadently naughty goody bag for the bride. Visit the Agent Provocateur website to learn more.

TLP told you about Ell & Cee in July of 2008. It was time to check back in with the design house.

Ell & cee began in 2002 when designer Laura Cloke, a former Fashion Graduate (KIAD Rochester) started producing small handmade collections of feminine pieces for selected London boutiques. Fed up with taking 50’s style petticoats and adapting them into modern day pieces, Laura took inspiration from these original designs and began creating beautiful lingerie and other delicate fancies. Press coverage grew for the vintage inspired boudoir pieces and Ell & Cee began to establish a place in the luxury lingerie market, seeing the brand show for the first time at London Fashion Week in February 2007. Collections are 100% silk and made in the uk, with each individual piece hand finished lovingly by the Ell & Cee team.

The brand offers a seasonal collection and a bespoke/bridal collection that is offered throughout the year. There is no information about the S/S collection for 2009, but the A/W 2008 collection is currently on sale and some great deals can be had.

The bow tied knicker is a common offering from Ell & Cee and the A/W 2008 version is in a limited edition bluebll lace. They have scalloped edging and a black silk bow. Was £40.00, now £30.00. On the right is the Bardot bed jacket. This piece is perfect in the boudoir, but with the right layers, could be perfect outerwear. Was £65.00 and is now £42.00.

From the bridal & bespoke collection is the Amelie antique Peek-a-boo knicker with stretch lace and several cappuccino silk bows. It is £36.00. On the right, The Mrs. A cheeky silk knicker in champagne, aqua, or blush for £40.00.
