Kiss Me Deadly Winter Collection

December 18, 2009 by Kelly

Have I mentioned how much I love Kiss Me Deadly? Because I do. Everything is so sexy with a vintage/retro touch, and it’s comfortable enough (and the prices are reasonable enough) to make it your go-to range for everyday lingerie. This winter collection is no exception! Here’s what’s new this season:

Alouette is back in a limited-edition peach range. Alouette includes a waist cincher, garter belt, brief, and bra of black lace over shimmering peach fabric.

The Jezebel range includes a fantastically seductive longline knicker based on vintage pantygirdle styles. The Jezebel cutout brief has a peephole in the back to show off your booty!

L’Amour offers waist reduction and sleek styling from the basque and cincher, both of which have a double layer of stretch control mesh and steel boning. The six suspender straps on both are detachable.

Finally, the Ruby Van Doren looks very much like the Diamond Van Doren from August, but with a new red trim that makes it perfect for the holidays!

You can find Kiss Me Deadly at La Magia, Hepburn and Leigh, Fairy Goth Mother, and Panty Salad.

What Katie Did expands Striptease Satin range!

November 19, 2009 by Press Release

Have you ever felt that vintage clothing and accessories often carry so much more mystique and glamour than their modern counterparts? Lingerie design house What Katie Did are no strangers to vintage elegance, creating, as they do, collections of faux vintage underpinnings that would not look out of place in a Golden Era film-star’s armoire. But even the colors of the past have names that conjure up images of old Hollywood stars: why say dusky pink when you can say ‘ashes of roses’, ‘turtle dove’ is far more romantic than gray, or ‘vermilion’ – so much more evocative than plain old red? What Katie Did feel the same, which is why, this November, they are expanding their hugely popular Striptease collection with a brand new, but very vintage color. Lingerie devotees will now be able to embrace their inner starlet in gloriously named eau-de-nil satin. You could call it ‘aqua’ or ‘duck egg blue’ if you like, but that doesn’t sound nearly so glamorous!

Striptease was inspired by the legendary burlesque artistes of the 1940s and 50s, with pieces names after the famed Gypsy Rose Lee and Sally Rand. It is the ultimate mix-and-match lingerie collection, all in deliciously soft satin; with the new eau-de-nil shade joining the classic black, peach, claret and purple already available. Knickers come bedecked with ballerina ruffles, or cute, fluted legs; the Gypsy Rose bralet and bestselling side tie knickers are sexy yet sophisticated, perfectly evoking their namesake; and the Lilian bralet and bloomers resemble nothing so much as a silent film star’s most saucy smalls. Accessorized with matching garters and eye masks, the Striptease collection works equally well as sleepwear, boudoir glamour or even as burlesque costumes! It’s as practical as it is pretty, and as naughty as it is nice.

With Christmas and Valentine’s Day just around the corner, vintage vixens and girls-next-door alike are encouraged to start dropping hints to their significant others as soon as possible. Or perhaps an even bigger hint is needed… for what could be more sophisticated on your wedding night than elegant eau-de-nil?

Lucy B – Pinup Lingerie

November 3, 2009 by Marissa

Lucy B makes vintage inspired lingerie that includes babydolls, lounge wear, camisoles, chemises, shorts, skirts, and bra & panty sets.  I can’t help but think it reminds me of Gwen Stefani circa 1996, when No Doubt first got big. Their collections have names like Peaches, Sweet Tart, Bo Peep and Starlet that make you think of the girls of the 50’s.

Kiss Me Deadly’s New Range

July 31, 2009 by Kelly

I recently bought some new pieces by Kiss Me Deadly, and remembered why I love this brand! I wanted to see more, and when I went to the Kiss Me Deadly website I was happy to find pictures of the brand new range. The new style is Diamond Van Doren, the photos for which are based on The Snow Queen, a fairy tale by Hans Christian Anderson.

The classic Van Doren bra already has a home as one of the Kiss Me Deadly ranges, but the diamond mesh fabric is new for August 2009. The new fabric, along with the ivory contrast trim, offers the same shape and style with a bit of a girlish, sophisticated twist. There is also a new matching suspender belt (boned with a non-stretch center panel for shaping) and a full brief with matching diamon pattern rear. The suspender belt, brief, and thong come in sizes S-XL. The bra is available in sizes 32-36 B-DD and 38C-DD. If you’re looking for your own, La Magia just made their stock available on the website, and is the first site we’ve seen to release the range.

Since we last looked at Kiss Me Deadly a year ago, they have also released the Vargas Girdle and Alouette in black.
