Decadent Lingerie

Her Rich Attire Creeps Rustling to her Knees

October 15, 2009 by Kelly

Did that title get your attention? It’s the phrase Strumpet & Pink have on their website, and it’s some of the only text on there that isn’t purely informational. The lingerie itself makes the statements, which is really the only way to give justice to it all.  I always love looking at pieces from Strumpet & Pink – although I obviously appreciate so many different kinds of lingerie, this is one of those exquisite lines that just makes you stop dead in your tracks and let out a little gasp when you see all the perfectly executed buttons, ruffles, ribbons, and chiffon. It reminds me of icing on a cake – perfectly sweet and fluffy, almost too pretty to use!

According to Glamorous Amorous, Strumpet & Pink was founded in 2002 by Lisa Z Morgan and Melanie Probert. They focus on limited-edition handmade knickers, using pure silk, satin, chiffon, and crepe. Morgan and Probert say of their creations,

“Our prime concern; how does a woman actually feel when she wears one of our creations. It is this experience that makes our knickers beautiful. Strumpet & Pink achieve this by embodying the sensibilities of the flower i.e beauty, fragility, sexuality and joy and combining these with the sensuous qualities of pure silk crepe, satin, chiffon and tulle. The knickers are cut on the bias in such a way as to trace and disclose the contours of the female form. Our knickers brim with contradictions; they feel beautiful, sensuous, humorous, naïve, sexual, confident and playful. Each pair holds a discovery…”

The only drawback? The price. You’ll have to save your pennies for these – if you even have to ask, you probably can’t afford it 😉 Prices vary, but you can expect to pay £200 to over £500 for these beauties. So for me, they will remain firmly in my dreams! But if you can spare the cash, you can find a selection at Glamorous Amorous, Catriona MacKechnie, Coco de Mer, and Faire Frou Frou.

New from Morgana Femme Couture

February 6, 2009 by Kelly

Last March I introduced you to Morgana Femme Couture, “lingerie with an edge.” The fierce, exciting brand has always had some seriously sexy lingerie to choose from, but there hasn’t been much news to share with you since last year. Luckily, we just heard from Morgana with an update about MFC! The company has moved to England, and has just released some new styles in the Couture collection, including Valentine’s and Bridal. Especially exciting are the new “cupped” overbust corsets! Until now, MFC offered gorgeous underbust corsets with matching bras – the overbust corsets are a great new addition. Read on for pictures and information about all the new Couture collection pieces:

This pale pink, sweetheart neckline, underbust corset is silk with a black lace overlay and floral applique. It has six shirred garters with satin bows.

The corset is complemented by the matching underwire bra and six detachable garters with black satin bows. This piece is hand-finished and has the option of genuine Swarovski crystal accents!

Chantal Thomass Lingerie Spring/Summer 2009

December 24, 2008 by Mandolina

How can we not love Chantal Thomass? The European genius/designer stuns us every single season with her innovative and inspiring designs (combined with photography of the same level, might I add) — and this upcoming Spring/Summer 2009 line is no different!

I really am extremely impressed with the bra set above. I’m hoping that front cover is detacheable — but everything else is just WAW. Check out the detail! Breathtaking!

More info on this collection isn’t on chantalthomass.fr just yet — but I’m sure that won’t be long!

Puimond Progressive Corset Design

December 2, 2008 by Kelly

I’m just going to start with photos of the most striking designs from Puimond corsets, because I think they speak for themselves!





I don’t think I have to point out that these designs are unusual and definitely not for the shy! Sold internationally to high-end boutiques and online, Puimond Corsets are named after the designer, Puimond himself. Based in Los Angeles, Puimond has been making corsets professionally since 1997, and told TLP that he is “obsessed with detail.”

Every Puimond corset is made to order by a selection of style, size, and materials. The corsets themselves are made of heavy busk closures, fabrics, and leathers, and each corset is lined with imported English cotton Coutil. Puimond says that standard-sized corsets fit as well as custom or made-to-measure corsets about 90% of the time, but he also offers custom corsets, which he has made for celebrities and shows. All of his corsets are strong and sturdy enough to withstand any tightlacing routine. And as you can see from the photos above, you can get a very dramatic hourglass figure with a Puimond corset! He has also made jackets to fit over his corsets, which further emphasize a tiny waist. To see more, to purchase, or to get more information on a particular corset, visit Puimond.com.

Bordelle Lingerie & Corsetry

November 1, 2008 by Mandolina

Nancy Meyer sent out an e-mail this week announcing the arrival of Bordelle corsetry. Bordelle’s a fresh new label from London, England that creates luxurious and exciting corsets, bustiers and camisoles… They do have an official website (link here!), but it’s pretty slim information-wise…

Nancy Meyer does have some info on the new line:

Bordelle Lingerie Leather and Silk Bustier and Panties Set

“With provocative stylings and couture craftsmanship, the new line Bordelle from the United Kingdom, combines ingenuity of design with utter sensuality and dynamic appeal. Each Bordelle product has been carefully made by hand, using a blend of the finest couture silks with original trims and accessories. Bordelle will have you feeling sexy, daring and provocative…”

I love these. They look decadent and super-luxurious — too bad pieces start at $374.00. That’s a lot of money… 🙁
