Oh, to be rich and able to chill fancily at home in this 🥹

If you are a person who cares about fabric and quality, these new brands and these new collections, no matter how trendy, simply don’t have the sauce. And it’s not necessarily their fault. Silk, for example, is worse quality than it used to be. Can’t be helped.

If there is one piece of advice I have for people who are into luxury lingerie, it’s to buy vintage. I don’t mean vintage as in stuff from the 1950s (though that also counts), but the cool, well-made stuff folks were wearing in the 2000s and early 2010s.

Throwback to this article I wrote that breaks down bra sister sizing + why terms such as 'D cup' are meaningless without an accompanying band size:

Would wear 👌

(While it's not exactly this silhouette, if you do in fact want to wear something transparent red and flowing which puddles at your feet, it reminded me of the Stephanie Kuhr Mam’selle robe : instagram.com/p/B8MdBeVF1mu/)

the KNWLS ss24 corset is actually another piece from their collaboration with Jean Paul Gaultier omg

If I had a spare 1,000€, this is exactly the sort of thing I’d spend it on. The same amount of money on a robe today will not get you anywhere close to this level.

I wrote about (really cool!) bodywear brand DSTM for Lingerie Briefs this week:

The last of the Plumes & Perles reels for a little while (until I make the next in the series!). This rendition is in platinum duchesse satin, overlaid with a pink and mushroom toned French lace. It's embellished with freshwater pearls, ostrich feathers, and Swarovski crystals.

What do underwires actually DO in a bra?

Three things! So, a quick 3-part thread 🧵
