Kiss Me Deadly
Blue Velvet Doren Bra
£39.00 GBP
Bullet-bra inspired, supportive, lightly padded bra in blue with black powernet wings.
A bra that doesn't need cup sizes but offers support? Yes, we thought it might be impossible too, but then we did some research and this is what we came up with.
The styling makes it look a little like a bullet bra - thick centred straps on a high peak, with a cut out over the underbust band. The satin is stitched over a foam lining for support, and that underbust band is thick elastic, which offers some support without a wire. The sides and back are powernet and it fastens with a wide band of hooks and eyes.
S = 32
M = 34
L = 36
XL = 38
If you're a DD cup you can get away with taking the next size up, and if you're an A cup, the next size down.
32A,32B,32C,32D,32DD,32E,34A,34B,34C,34D,34DD,34E,36A,36B,36C,36D,36DD,36E, 38A,38B,38C,38D,38DD

Steinem Front-Fastening Longline Bra 32-36 B-DD
£54.00 GBP
The sample shows the all black version. The wine matches the Juliet in wine from Playful Promises.
This longline black satin bra has wired cups made from very light foam in beige, with the bottom part being satin and the top in mesh giving a contrast. Unlike most bras, the hooks and eyes are at the front, leaving a cut-out in the centre and the cups tie together with a wide satin ribbon in black. The front is lined with stabiliser and a deep band of black powernet forms the back. View full product details
Steinem High Waist Brief
£39.00 GBP
The wine matches the Juliet in wine from Playful Promises.
Super high waist brief - so long that for the more petite in stature the longline bras might overlap with it - with a black satin centre and black trims, and sheer mesh sides and back. The mesh can be black or wine, and the wine matches the Juliet and similar Playful Promises styles.

Rose Noir Latex Nouveau Corselette
£495.00 GBP
Rose Noir Designs worked exclusively with us to create this collection of latex fabulousness. If you're not familiar with latex then you will need to read this blog before ordering!
If you're a latex fan then you'll know that making latex garment is a slow, zen-like process of carefully and precisely bonding seams together using glues and solvents, which is practically an art form in itself. As each garment is hand-made anyway, Rose and I have agreed to do these garments made-to-measure, so please expect to need a tape measure, fill in a form, and give us about 8 weeks to finish your item.
This corselette is based on a combination of the underwired longline bra and the girdle skirt, formed into a one-piece corselette inspired by our Vargas dress. It's hand painted with metallic Art Nouveau motifs, shown in black with silver. It has 6 metal garter tabs, adjustable shoulder straps, and a two-way zip at the back.
The last image is a chart of the sizes of wire available; if your normal bra size is outside of this wire range we might not be able to make the bra in your size, please contact us to check.

Black Cherie Teddy
£59.00 GBP
Just a handful of this classic satin playsuit, based on an actual vintage teddy from the 50s. It has a silky soft stretch body, black lace triangle cups and lace french knicker style legs. This is a closed teddy, so it does not have poppers in the gusset. Please note that the lace used may change depending on availability issues. The satin used is a Bosselli combining a high lycra content with flat knit polyester for a subtle sheen with plenty of stretch and softness, and more durability than silk.
Because this was patterned from a vintage garment, if you're long in the torso you may find it doesn't match your size, though it does have stretch. The back is shown in peach and cream instead of the all black. The last image shows the new lace.

Audrey Silk Longline Girdle Rose
£85.00 GBP
Made in tiny quantities in the UK, this set is sewn by a very small silk specialist unit.
Based on 1950's designs, the sleek curves of this longline girdle are designed to flatten the stomach rather than cinch the waist, and use contrasting sheer black mesh and powernet with a centre overlay of rose silk. There are six metal garter clips and it fastens with hooks and eyes at the back.
You are buying Dusky Rose, a soft, warm pink; in the first image Maz, left, wears a size small in amethyst Audrey girdle and brief, and Catherine, right, wears a size XL Audrey girdle in rose.
