Gilda & Pearl: Glamorous, Handmade Lingerie

January 6, 2009 by Kelly

Gilda & Pearl is the kind of sweet and timeless lingerie you would expect to see in a fairytale – perfect for someone very feminine who is looking for something luxuriously self-indulgent. The totally handmade pieces are made of silks, ribbons, and lace, and are inspired by screen glamour of the 40s and 50s. The Marilyn collection has even been adapted from original vintage lingerie patterns! Bras come in sizes 32A-38C, and knickers come in S-L.


You can order collections from their online boutique, and they also take special requests. You can contact Gilda & Pearl if you want a change to the fabric, style, or size of existing designs. If you want a bow removed, or a change of the ribbon color, they can probably meet your requests so you have wonderfully unique pieces. They also accept commissions for wedding lingerie or other bespoke items. If you need to drop a hint so that certain someone knows what to get you for Valentine’s Day, or if you want to request a wishlist from your beloved so you know what she wants the most, you can do both of those from the Gilda & Pearl website.

What Katie Did Gold Label

December 16, 2008 by Mandolina

On 15th January 2009 What Katie Did launch their Gold Label range. What Katie Did Gold Label will be a forward order line, with the first range being available exclusively through What Katie Did.

What Katie Did Gold Label will be more exclusive than their standard lines, using more expensive fabrics and being aimed at the sub designer market. Two lines per year will be introduced, one in mid January to capitalize on the Valentines Day market, and one in June.

Lily, as always, is inspired by a vintage piece: an early underwired bra with a sheer peach organza lining and black lace overlay. What Katie Did’s version uses the same peach lining and almost identical lace, but has a cup shape more flattering to today’s woman.

The range comprises:

  • Lily Underwired Bra (high res image), sizes 32B to 38DD, rrp £44.50
  • Lily Deep Knickers (high res image), sizes 10 to 18, rrp £34.50
  • Lily 6 Strap Suspender Belt (high res image), sizes 10 to 18, rrp £39.50
  • Lily Waist Cincher (high res image), sizes 10 to 18, rrp £49.50

New Holiday Collection from Secrets In Lace

November 19, 2008 by Kelly

TLP favorite Secrets In Lace has just released their new Holiday Collection, and it is stunning! The very first thing I noticed is the rich jewel tones: deep red, festive green, warm gold, and an icy silver. These fresh, modern shades are found on the nostalgic styles of circle stitch bullet bras, silky full slips, camisoles, tap pants, thongs, briefs, garter belts, waist cinchers, and even matching portrait collar tops.

With all these colors and styles, I imagine it would be easy to pick just a few pieces and be able to mix and match for a lot of different looks. Any retro-loving, vintage-style, pin-up girl would be thrilled to unwrap her presents to find a piece from the Holiday Collection – I know I would! 😉 To make sure you get her exactly what she wants in the sizes she needs, go to the website and search for her wishlist. Ladies, make sure you create one in case your man goes looking for it!

Vintage Vixens – Tra-La-La Lingerie

September 8, 2008 by Krista

Are you a vintage vixen? Then you are in luck! A number of brands are going the retro route with inspiration from the 40’s and 50’s.  A new brand, Tra-La-La Lingerie, joins the ranks of those doing vintage.  And, believe me, they are doing it very well!  Tra-La-La has taken the flirty, playful, and fun elements of that era and the technology and fabrication of this era and translated it into gorgeous pieces you’ll want to wear again and again.

Each collection has a theme (such as Bat Your Eyelashes, Fly Me to the Moon, and Ride ‘Em Cowboy!) and features a number of pieces from babydolls, camis, and rompers to high waist panties, hipsters, and tap pants.  Colorways for Spring begin with rich jewel tones and move to flirty pastels, classic black, and colorful coral.  The fabrics include stretch woven satin, elegant eyelash lace, and Egyptian cotton to name a few.  And, the details – to die for!   Perfectly placed pockets, beautiful bows, and riveting ruching and ruffles!

If that wasn’t enough, Tra-La-La also has the cutest, cheekiest novelty panties!  I can’t wait to own a few pairs myself!  With sayings such as “Catchy Number,” “Peek-a-View,” “Are my cheeks red?” and “Sitting Pretty,” these are guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser!

Tra-La-La Lingerie will be available in stores early next year.  See the photos below for a glimpse of some of the sassy styles of the collections.  And, of course, we’ll keep you posted on the latest developments with this new and exciting brand!

Kiss Me Deadly Autumn/Winter 2008 Collection at La Magia

August 17, 2008 by Mandolina

The Autumn/Winter 2008 collection from Kiss Me Deadly is available for pre-order at www.LaMagia.co.uk. This new collection is Kiss Me Deadly at its best, sensual, subversive, dark and feminine. Ranges are as follows:

Van Mimi

Introducing the breathtaking new centrepiece of the Autumn/Winter 2008 Kiss Me Deadly collection, this was inspired by an haute couture bra from the 50’s. Made from eyelash and floral lace with satin contour panelling, it features a velvet ribbon lace up effect.

The midi bra and skirted basque have underwired, lined lace cups with padded satin sides, waist shaping reinforcement, and velvet ribbon trim. The basque also has a lace skirt, plastic boning and six detachable suspender straps with metal clips and satin ribbons.

The matching deep suspender belt has six wide straps and a centre non-stretch panel crisscrossed with velvet ribbon. The matching lace brief and thong have the same effect at the rear. Finally there is a lace short-sleeved bolero or bed jacket – this is just beautiful and perfect as evening wear to dress up an outfit or give modesty to a low cut top or corset. This set comes in sizes S, M, L and XL, 32-36 B-DD, and 38C-DD for the bra and the basque.

Sirena

Back in a new colourway we have the stunning Sirena from Kiss Me Deadly, one of the fastest selling designs we have ever known! Available for Autumn/Winter 2008 in sumptuous black satin with intricate black lace, this is a seriously desirable range. Limited numbers are available and this will sell out quickly.

The Sirena bra has a padded demi cup with a ruched lace overlay, with a wide, swooping satin strap straight from 40’s style icons and finished with delicate eyelash lace on the cups and contrasting ivory bow to the centre. The straps are, of course, fully adjustable and the back closes with standard hook and eye closure. E cups and 38 back sizes feature a flat lace overlay on the cups to provide support and fit for larger busts.

The 6-strap suspender has the same gorgeous lace detailing, as do the briefs and thong thatcomplete the range. The bra is available in sizes 32 and 34 A-E, 36B-E, and 38 C-E. All the other items are available in sizes S, M, L and XL.

Emerald Alouette

Alouette in emerald is another limited edition design from Kiss Me Deadly, designed for Autumn/Winter 2008. The padded plunge underwired bra is the same shape as the Alouette in Gold, giving a wonderfully uplifted cleavage to all bust sizes. Every girl needs a push-up bra and this is one of the best we have seen. Featuring geometric lace over a rich and elegant emerald green satin.

With all the finishing touches we know to expect from Kiss Me Deadly, chiffon bows, adjustable back and straps and wider straps for larger bust sizes. Matching 6-strap suspender, briefs and thong available.
The bra is available in 32, 34 and 36 B-DD and 38C-DD. All the other items are available in sizes from S, M, L and XL

Limited Edition Vargas Dress

Another bestseller for La Magia in previous colourways, Vargas combines flattering vintage coverage and shaping techniques with modern prints, colours and convenience. Can be worn beneath your clothes for smooth and discreet foundation wear, but unlike other control wear it is sexy enough to be worn in the bedroom. We defy any woman to wear this and not feel sexy, it is sensational! It has 6 integrated suspender straps with the all-important metal clasps to make sure your stockings stay up!

Unlike a corset there are no bones, and you can roll it on and then fasten the bra section. Its double layer mid section gives a superb waist and silhouette, and the bra is lace over mesh with a strap that elegantly swoops from the base to the shoulder. This style needs to be fitted to your bra size, and the 38’s have a concealed zip at the back for ease of fit. This style needs to be fitted to your bra size, available from 32 to 36 B–DD and 38 C–DD.

Kiss Me Deadle Vargas

Kiss Me Deadly had so many requests for something simple and versatile to mix and match with their other items, so here it is; a retro bra and brief set in sheer black mesh. The only thing it won’t go with is their white items, but even that depends on what else you were planning to wear!

The bra cups are underwired and lined, with no padding. There are of course adjustable straps, and the decoration is simple with just a scattering of bows. The briefs are more a bikini style than the usual shorty, and on this occasion they’ve put the bow at the front. The bra is available in 32, 34 and 36 B-DD and 38C-DD. All the other items are available in sizes from S, M, L and XL
