Luva Huva Adds Bamboo to Selection

October 6, 2008 by Mandolina

According to several UK newspapers, Joanna Ketterer of Luva Huva recently added another group to her selection of handmade knickers. In addition to the end of line silks and cottons, she now sews her fancy knickers in materials made from the pulp of bamboo grass, which is similar to unspun cotton.

Barely a month into selling the new line, the most popular of the six items is the Bamboo Cream Knicker. Also available in bright ruby red and deep plum purple, each knicker has its own camisole to match. Like her other creations, these panties are beautiful with pretty lace around the waistband and little bows adorning the fabric. The legs of the knickers are gathered with elastic and finished with complementary stitching. The camisoles are equally as pretty with lace bordering the round neckline and the hem.

Luva Huva Lingerie

June 11, 2008 by Brenda

Pretty knickers and bra tops in exquisite silks and cottons with fancy bows, frills and little button adornments are the signature garments of Luva Huva by Joanna Ketterer. A London, UK designer, Joanna graduated from the Surrey Institute of Art and Design in 2004. Initially creating wall hangings, she felt that she wanted to design items that would be more practical and that used gorgeous fabrics. She tried sewing a pair of knickers and saw that there was a market for unique, luxury underwear so she decided to focus on the pretty underpants.

All of her knickers are handmade and orders are taken through Joanna’s website and small offline shops. A sweet and delicate collection, there are seven pictures of available knickers on the website ranging in colours of pink, blue, purple, yellow, peach and red in both solid colours and prints. Because the knickers are made from end of line remnants and throw away pieces, I would assume that the colours and prints seen are not the actual material that is received. It appears as though when ordering, the customer chooses the design and provides all information relating to her choice of knickers.

Further, the knickers come in two types, both French with the open leg, and Anglaise with elastic around the leg. The key ingredients in the making of the beautiful knickers is comfort and feminine styling and one can clearly see by the photos that these are definitely made for classy ladies. The bra tops are triangle shaped tops with tie strings around the neck and under the bust.

Although the website seems to be from 2006, there are many recent testimonials throughout the internet from women indicating that the garments are excellent quality and beautifully made. Considering the raw materials are scrap pieces of fabric, this tiny eco-lingerie label is truly decadent.
