On the Lookout: Antonia Ghazlan

by

Antonia Ghazlan caused quite a stir in 2005 and 2006. She could use the triangle bra in seemingly endless ways. She had an eye for colour combinations. Each piece was hand finished in the United Kingdom by Antonia Ghazlan’s own workers. The corporate web site no longer hosts any content and is likely in the hands of a domain squatter. I haven’t seen many new pieces and the stockists that do carry the brand are offering deep discounts.

Antonia’s reputation was built on interesting colour combinations. Many fabrics in her collection were made exclusively for Antonia Ghazlan. Ghazlan was also known to do her own dying to achieve the exact colour. Besides the triangle bra, Ghazlan also used a thick or contrasting waistband and many camisoles to define her brand. Shop Glamorous Amorous (below) or Fishnets Lingerie.

Okay, you can always find the most exciting sales on our sales page, but this one deserves a special mention on the blog. Why? Because some of the designer pieces at Glamorous Amorous are now 75% off! That’s pretty awesome if you ask me. 😉

Glamorous Amorous is doing great, by the way. They’ve added a couple of new designers/collections since we last mentioned them – Patrick & Skinner last month, some new Rosanna Ansaloni pieces, Damaris, Mimi Holliday, Guia la Bruna, … and so much more is arriving soon, we were told! GA also stocks some less-famous treasures such as Fishbelly, Amoralia, Antonia Ghazlan, .. so they’re always worth checking out!

Antonia Ghazlan Silk Hearts Bra full viewWe’re starting to appreciate the Glam Am store more and more. Why? because they are a daring bunch. Their stocklist isn’t at all as large as our other favorite’s, Figleaves, but the selection they have made throughout their growth has been very impressive. Earlier this week we showed you their amazing Strumpet & Pink signing, today, we’re zooming in on some Antonia Ghazlan pieces they have in their stock.Antonia Ghazlan lingerie Coral Lace Bra and Knickers

Who’s Antonia Ghazlan? Antonia Ghazlan specializes in unusual lingerie in high class fabrics (silk and lace, what else?) with a focus on colors and textures. This sounds a bit cryptic maybe, but I’m sure the photo’s will speak for themselves.Antonia Ghazlan Silk Bra with Pink Hearts

Take a look at this Antonia Ghazlan Silk Hearts bra. The design combines delicate hearts and subtle flowers on stretch silk satin, with a sequinned dragonfly. It’s not cheap at $106.90 / £60, but hey, this is classy stuff!Antonia Ghazlan Coral Lace Bra

You don’t have to digg deep into your wallet to get something nice from a Antonia Ghazlan collection, though. This very beautiful Coral Lace Bra is only $35/£20. The matching knickers (£17.50) make the whole set a great buy at £37.50/$66.81. Happy shopping!
