European lingerie

Designer lingerie

Designer lingerie

European lingerie has dominated the global designer lingerie market for the last hundred years. French lingerie and Italian lingerie designers are at the forefront of this domination.

Some of my favourite French lingerie brands are Aubade, Elise Aucouturier, huit, Princesse tam tam and Simone Pérèle. Not forgetting the glamourous luxury pajamas brand Le Monde d’Alba.

Great Italian lingerie brands include Argentovivo, Cotton Club, Bacirubati, Guia la Bruna, Ritratti and Rosapois.

English lingerie brands such as Mimi Holliday, Fleur of England, Miss La La Presents and Yes Master are now coming to the fore as are other designer lingerie brands such as Di Murini, I.D. Sarrieri and Andrés Sardá.

The English corset brands have always been strong and they inlude Vollers corset, Eternal Spirits, Velda Lauder and What Katie Did. Shapewear swimwear is now beginning to become immensly popular as are designer mastectomy lingerie.

Mimi Holliday Swimwear and Lingerie

Mimi Holliday swimwear is proving as popular as their lingerie line.

Mimi Holliday Persica White with Icy Pink Polka Dot Bikini Set

The gorgeous Persica bikini top features gently padded cups with underwire which means great support and better shape. The balconette bra style which Mimi Holliday are well known for works excellently in the bikini style with peach polka dots, gathering at the side of the cups to give a ruched look across the cups and a cotton bow at the front centre with the rear fastening with a bow between two bronze rings.

If you have a smaller cup sizes then look at the Mimi Holliday Bon Bon bikini set or the Mimi Holliday Stellar Bikini Set.

Corset commuter man

Well that’s one way to impress a girl with a corset!

Alan Titchmarsh and his corsets!

Believe it or believe it not, Alan Titchmarsh the ‘Guru of the Garden’ must have been too close to the Mulberry Tree because he has been bitten by the silk bug….or should I say worm???

The video shows Mr Titchmarsh reviewing a gorgeous Eternal Spirits corset….what a versatile and talented guy he is – I heard he is a writer of pretty good romantic fiction too!

I’m not sure that he is suggesting that you should do your pruning in a pair of wellies, a corset and some leather gloves but wouldn’t it make a nice change!….What will those Womens Institute calender ladies ever do next!

Bond-eye swimwear always has great styles and designs. The new seasons collections have now been released and look fantastic. My particular favourite is the Bond-Eye Arizona Beach Black and White Banded Halter Top.

If you want something with that WOW factor this summer on the beach then something from the Bond-eye swimwear and bikini collection is sure to do the trick. Or maybe you would like a more outdoorsey holiday, how about a stay on a tree covered island like Bowen island in Vancouver.

Style: Velda Lauder creates beautiful corsets in unique & exquisite fabrics that shape and sculpt the waist. Velda Lauder ’s  hand made corsets are made in London using the most luxurious materials and finishings giving the highest form of lingerie.

Velda’s love of 40’s and 50’s movies has shaped her fascination with curve-creating garments and Hollywood glamour icons such as Marilyn Monroe, Gina Lollobrigida and Sophia Loren have helped inspire her. These glamorous women with their hypnotic hourglass shapes, all size 16 plus, were enhanced by technically brilliant foundation garments.

The Velda Lauder ‘Ready to Wear’ line is also traditionally made from the highest quality materials and is manufactured entirely in Britain.

After graduating she set up the enchanting Velda Lauder corset company in London, which sells to such A-listers as Heidi Klum, Dita Von Teese, Charlotte Church and Saffron. Her lines of corsets, underbusts and accessories have proved highly sought after by celebrities when they want to make a seriously sexy fashion statement.
