    Hot Right Now

    These past few years, a new lingerie item has unexpectedly entered the chat. Something a little unusual considering what we are talking about. The lingerie sleeve has arrived! First notably seen at Studio Pia, it’s now popping up across various lingerie brands and collections. 

    As everything with fashion, nothing is a new idea. Variations of the sleeve have been seen many times before. You would have seen jewelled capes, lace cover ups and jersey or mesh shrugs. The later most recently as part of rave culture. The current trend is focused on the use of embroidery and lace as a matching addition to a lingerie set. 

    The Charlotte Sleeves from Edge o’ Beyond

    What is the driving force behind this new direction of lingerie accessories? These are some of my theories…

    Avoiding textile waste

    A lot of brands need to order above what they need to meet minimum fabric purchases. This mainly adversely affects smaller independent brands. One way to not waste it is to use it in a more full coverage design.

    Showing off the full textile

    Lingerie is notoriously small and sometimes the textiles don’t have their moment to truly shine. By usuing them on a larger surface it allows their beauty to be on full display.

    Lingerie as outerwear

    I think everyone under the sun knows that one of the biggest lingerie trends in the past 20 years has been Lingerie as Outerwear. The sleeve adds a new element beyond a strappy bra poking out the top of an outfit.

    The art of the upsell

    The pessimist in me says that this is just another way to bump up the order total, a 3 piece set turns into a 4. These are business after all.

    Conservatism and censorship in social media 

    With the rise of censorship on social media it gets harder and harder to advertise lingerie. Is the introduction of sleeves and similar styling pieces a way around the algorithm detecting as much skin? 

    Tatu Couture

    Discussions I’ve seen online have been mostly positive in regards to this newest trending item. People have stated feeling more confident while wearing them if self conscious about arms or scars.  

    I’d love to know your thoughts! Leave a comment below on why you think this newest lingerie styling piece has taken off.

  • Lingerie Advent Calendars 2023 🎄

    Lingerie Advent Calendars 2023 🎄

    These days there are so many different types of advent calendar, that buying one can feel a bit overwhelming. One type of advent calendar that you won’t have seen too much of is the not-so-humble lingerie advent calendar. Tricky to do but beautiful when done right, they are the ultimate indulgence for the festive season.

    Here, I’ve rounded up the few that are available for the lingerie lover in your life.

    Edge o’ Beyond

    With 3 different options there is something for just about everyone at Edge o’ Beyond. The first calendar is a bottoms calendar coming in at £495, next is their 12 day calendar at £595 and lastly their most extravagant calendar, the 24 day lavish lingerie calendar at £995. Each calendar is customised based on the customer, their size as well as their past purchases so you are sure not to double up on anything you already own.

    I personally have my eye on the Lavish 24 day calendar but I’ll keep dreaming…

    Harlow and Fox

    Harlow and fox is a luxury lingerie company specialising in the smaller fullerbust customer. They have 2 options for calendars starting at £780 for the 12 day gift box and then the second option is £930 and includes an exclusive robe that isn’t sold separately. The packing looks like a real treat to open.

    Seelanii Lingerie

    As I’m writing this there only two advent calendars left so hopefully you see this soon and nab the last ones! This is definitely a more hands on approach and has a very personal touch. There is a 7 day advent calendar or a 12 day for those that want the ultimate experience. The 12 day has 10 existing styles you can find on the website along with 2 bespoke mystery styles.

    Soft Strokes Silk

    A specialist silk company they do have other types of calendars but this is the only one containing lingerie. For £383 you get 12 pairs of silk knickers inside of individual storage pouches.

    Pip and Pantalaimon

    for £350 you can get a 12 days of lingerie advent calendar but with a vintage twist. With this calendar they do let you know exactly what you are getting, all you have to do is select your sizes!

    Have you found any others? I’d love to know!

  • Introducing Overture Lingerie

    Introducing Overture Lingerie

    Whenever there is a new lingerie brand I get very excited. Now imagine that excitement when I find out that new brand is a small band/fuller bust specialist based in the UK. Overture lingerie is a boutique London based brand that has just launched.

    They specialise in band sizes 26-34 and cup sizes F-HH. While that may not seem like a very large size range, for a small brand it is a huge investment to create 30 sizes. They have launched with two colour ways, with a brief and thong as well as a robe. Overture is definitely a luxury brand but the attention to detail in design is well worth the price tag.

    I was gifted the thong in a size 16 and the bra in a 32HH in the Espresso range. I’m definitely more of a size 16/18 so the thong is a bit on the small side but definitely wearable. One thing you should know about this brand is that it is manufactured in Poland. If you are well versed in the bra world you’ll know what that means straight away.

    For those that don’t know, Polish bras are known for their narrow wires and deep cups giving a much more lifted silhouette. It is the opposite of a minimising effect and its great if you are looking for a rounded shape.

    Comparison of wire shape between Overture and Panache. Overture wire finishes at the same point but follows the natural shape of the breast root more.

    So lets be honest, this brand is all about the bra, the knicker and robe make a nice outfit but the bra is the star of the show. It’s made from Bespoke Swiss embroidery and has non stretch silk straps. It’s finished with rose gold hardware that is very subtle.

    Here I’m wearing the initial bra in a 32HH.

    It has an Illusion cup, a 3 part invisible tulle base layer overlayed with two part cup of the abstract Swiss embroidery. It also has a sling made of the same illusion tulle to help with forward projection. This bra has used a balconette wire but has a 1cm illusion drop so it looks more plunging than it actually is. The lower embroidery gives the wearer the option to wear more open necklines with only the invisible tulle on display.

    Full disclosure, I was sent a bigger bra after wearing the first bra a few times. I found I needed more space mostly in the height of the cup and the 34HH which has been modified into a 32J gives me better results. Unfortunately I still had the same issue with this bra so we decided to try the other colour way in the modified 34HH=32J. Something I didn’t realise while looking on the website is that the tulle between the different styles is different. The tulle on the black bra is much softer. It great for those who find tulle can be a bit scratchy or irritating. Unfortunately if you are a bigger cup size like me it doesn’t offer the support that is needed and can easily be stretch and warped out of shape.

    32J in the affogato range

    Something I would change is the overlocking of the tulle cup. It faces outwards but because of where my tissue sits in the bra it shows on the espresso range. The reason its not this way is so its smooth against the skin. So no irritation from the stitching. One other thing I’d change is the straps or more specifically the length/adjustability. I find the neckline appears quite long without the amount of tension that is need from the straps so it can appear to gape.

    One aspect that I really love about this bra is how light it is. It’s something very unexpected for a fuller bust bra, as some can resemble scaffolding. When I first unboxed it I thought there was no way something so delicate could hold up my boobs. It really does achieve the mission the brand set out to do, a bra you can forget you are wearing all day yet luxurious enough to wear out again all night.

    The thong is simple but comfortable

    I’ve worn both styles of bras a number of times and there really is a large difference between colour ways. The bigger the cup I’d definitely go for the lighter colours, if a smaller cup size the espresso will work well. I’m actually very surprised how much I’ve worn the lighter colour bra. Those colours are not normally my first choice but it has been so nice to wear and I’ve ended up preferring the embroidery.

  • Studio Pia – Naga Review

    Studio Pia – Naga Review

    These items were purchased by myself, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

    It’s hard to believe Studio Pia has only been around for 5 years. With a strong brand identity and a commitment to sustainability, they have found a loyal legion of fans across the world. And It’s easy to see why. Easy fit sizing, the use of peace silk, iconic embroidery and unusual colours, there is something that would appeal to nearly every luxury lingerie consumer. I’ve purchased from studio pia multiple times at full price and in the sales, directly from them and through select boutiques that have stocked them. This order in particular was via the wonderful Garnet District.

    Suspender styled as a harness brief.

    I had this ordered in for me in sizes 9 for the bra and Large for the thong and suspender as these are my usual sizes. It’s important to note that this version of this set is the new and improved version. The bra is now a 3 part cup compared to the original version which was only a 2 part. The 2 parts are still in some boutiques across the world and on resellers pages online so make sure if you are on the top end of the size chart that you get the 3 part, the fit is much much better.

    The thong fits very true to size and there is no diversion from how all their thongs fit. The suspender does feel slightly bigger in this style compared to some of my others ones. There isn’t much to be said about the suspender and thong as they are classic silhouettes from studio pia so they are as expected.

    Here you can see the suspender is tightened as far as it can go.

    The bra on the other hand is quite different to styles I have had previously from them. I do have a longline bra from them previously but it was in silk and the cradle of the bra was lacking as was the depth in the cups. This bra the cradle has improved greatly and the 3 part cup has created more depth so the wires can sit flatter. The shoulder straps are fully adjustable and they are also detachable at the back to change it from regular shoulder straps to cross over ones. The 3 part cup is very delicate. The top of the cup uses clear elastic tape to keep the embroidered edge in place. The cradle and the lower parts of the cup are lined in a very fine tulle.

    Fine mesh reinforces most of the bra.

    It is key to mention, technically I’m two cup sizes bigger than what this bra can fit. It is the life of a big boob owner trying to squeeze into the luxury lingerie that’s available. Trying this bra on and taking photos was great but wearing it out for a day was torture.This it wasn’t anything to do with it being too small. It was to do with the boning used.

    With long line bras you do have to use boning most of the time to keep the band in place, otherwise it tends to roll up. The problem is boning In the wrong place or placed in the wrong direction can be very painful to wear, especially on bigger sizes. If you have protruding ribs or belly I’d warn against wearing this for any long period of time or if you expect to bend or sit at all.

    I’m not a stranger to bra injuries but this was next level discomfort.

    Another thing I will note is that I thought the proportion of the set was a bit off. I think it’s perhaps because I have seen so many beautiful people wear it but without even realising they were all wearing very small sizes. It hadn’t even crossed my mind but obviously the scale of embroidery looks different when the body wearing it is bigger. I felt like it looked messier and less obvious, like the snakes got lost on me. I do also think this set would benefit from a highwaisted thong. Because the suspender and thong are so small and sparse on embroidery, the longline bra seems quite unbalanced and too heavy when worn together.

    Overall it’s a beautiful set and definitely one for any lingerie addicts collection but I wouldn’t want to wear it for any long period of time unfortunately. Great for photos and short wear or all day wear if you have a straighter body shape.

  • Agent Provocateur, Anytime but not any size.

    Agent Provocateur, Anytime but not any size.

    Agent Provocateur made a bit of a song and dance about expanding their size range at the start of 2021. I for one was very excited. I used to be a very loyal customer but as my body changed I was quickly sized out. Being one of the biggest names in the lingerie industry, this size expansion has been long awaited.

    This size expansion is one brief size, one band size and one cup size above their usual offering. It’s advertised up to a G cup but it fails to mention that it goes from a F to a G and skips the standard FF on a U.K. bra size chart altogether.

    When above a DD you can pretty much exclusively find everyday plain bras. What’s harder to find is something in the AP aesthetic in larger cups . So what they’ve given us is exactly what we already have access to just triple the price and with a worse fit. AP notoriously runs small or inconsistent so the one plus side I thought would be easy access in stores and the ability to try on. Turns out these styles are in store but not in the newly expanded sizes to try. Only up to a DD.

    I took the risk and ordered the Brigette set online for the total price of £195. I have sister sized to a 36G, my regular bra size being somewhere around 32H/HH. I also ordered the matching roll on girdle and thong. The thong I ordered in the size 6 which is the equivalent of a UK 16 and the roll on girdle in a 5 which is a UK 14.

    It arrived in their standard e-commerce packaging, the foldable pink box tied with the black ribbon. As I’ve said before, I haven’t ordered from AP in quite some time and the difference in packaging compared to other luxury brands is quite lacklustre. Visually its iconic but very flimsy.

    The set itself is very nice but not iconically AP. The fabric used is a micro fibre, something you’d see at Calvin Kline or in sports wear. Think seamless underwear. So in term of its Anytime description I guess it does fit the bill although I resent the idea that fun colourful silk and embroidery is considered not appropriate at ‘anytime’.

    The bra fits well enough or as expected for a sister size. The girdle fits well but I’m glad I went smaller rather than bigger. The thong I wish I got a size 5 not 6. I find the rise is really long and that’s saying something as I’m 5’9 with a long torso. I’m not sure if it’s the fabric used that has caused this but I find it kind of hangs down at the gusset when worn for a few hours.

    The bra is a 3 part cup, two part foam with the third part the lace top and it is surprisingly comfortable. The cup lacks depth at the bottom, an issue that is usually found when a pattern is scaled up from a smaller size without the adjustments needed for bigger sizes. There are a few details that I’m really impressed with and I hope to see more of. One of which being where the hook and eye closure is, the strap is padded. It is honestly such a nice detail, sometimes my skins gets irratted from the bra band so this was a nice luxurious touch. I also love the fabric choice mixed with the leavers lace. So it very much fits the anytime theme, its elevated basics that are wearable with the modern wardrobe.

    Here you can see the lack of space in the bottom of the cups.

    I’ve found myself wearing this set more and more as times gone on, most commonly just with the thong rather than the girdle. I find it really comfortable to wear, it still looks new after a few washes and it works really well under clothes. So while this isn’t the size expansion most were hoping for this set for the price isn’t bad and it has worked its way into my regular rotation which is saying something with a lingerie wardrobe the size of mine.

    Overall I’d say this range is good but not great, I wouldn’t buy again at full price but I’m happy with the set that I have. What are your thoughts?

  • Luxury loungewear, Emma Harris Lingerie

    Luxury loungewear, Emma Harris Lingerie

    This item has been gifted by Emma Harris lingerie, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

    Emma Harris is a brand you may know the name of but cannot place. It’s a luxury lingerie label that flies under the radar. With a small presence on social media and a classic take on lingerie it can be easy to miss in a culture focused on trends and tech development. Emma Harris is focusing on quality materials and luxury finishes. It’s understated, elegant and definitely deserving of some more attention.

    The size range is fairly standard for a lingerie brand, I’m sized out technically and I was very sceptical if this robe would fit. Their sizes range from an XS which is a 6-8 up to a XL being an equivalent of 14-16 UK. They do have a bespoke service as well however if a new pattern is required to achieve the perfect fit, this will be at an extra cost. An example given by the designer is that to amend slips to cater for a larger bust ie. a size small with a 32FF bust, the increase to cover the pattern work would be £25. All of the products are made in house and made to order so if you have any questions their in-house technical team will be able to advise on customisation best suited to your needs.

    This is the Cleo Kimono in an XL. It retails for £440 and comes in both black and this glorious garnet. This colour is truly amazing in person, it’s the perfect shade for autumn and really conjures up thoughts of luxurious lounging. The colour combination of the Garnet silk an Gold lace have worked effectively to achieve a sense of regal elegance. I honestly can’t say enough about how beautiful this colour is in person, it’s a stand out of the season for me personally.

    Deep silk band on the collar.

    I find the design of this Kimono robe very interesting. The use of the thick bands of silk on the collar and sleeves add weight and shape to the garment as well as being a nod to the traditional kimono it is styled after. The thick bands also balance out the gold pattern matched lace insert on the sleeves so one isn’t overpowering the other, all elements are well balanced. This is quite a short robe, the images on the website can be misleading as its styled with a longer slip underneath. On me at 5’9 its just covers my bum. It is described as being oversized but on me (someone who is 2-4 inches bigger than what’s recommended on the size chart) it fits fairly standard. If you are within the size range it will have the luxurious feeling of being encompassed by silk. The fabric composition is 97% silk and 3% elastin. So its not 100% silk but this is actually my personal preference as I like my loungewear with a bit of give.

    So £440 sounds like a lot of money and it definitely is but you may be surprised to hear that this is actually at the lower end of the scale for price in luxury loungewear. One of the biggest names in Luxury lingerie will sell their robes from £500-£1000 and the quality is average. There are many plain silk robes on the market at around the £400 price point but this one from Emma Harris really is a standout in construction and design.

    So how do they have superior quality but still remain at the accessible end of the luxury market? They hold no stock, when an order is placed it is then made in the atelier in England by the team. This means there is no over production and no need to price higher to account for the left over products that then normally would go on sale. Personally I prefer to buy at full price knowing its not going to go on sale in a months time for half the price.

    I’m so grateful to have been gifted this by Emma Harris lingerie, it is truly the most beautiful robe I now own and will be something I treasure for years to come. It has been packed into my suitcase for every weekend trip I’ve done since its arrived so that’s saying something in itself. Although this item was gifted, I can definitely see myself purchasing from this brand in the future, both for myself and as a beautiful gift for a loved one.

  • Evgenia starlet lingerie set; A review.

    Evgenia starlet lingerie set; A review.

    This set was purchased with my own money. This blog post does not contain any affiliate links and all opinions are my own.

    For as long as I can remember I’ve been obsessed with Evgenia lingerie. It was one of the first lingerie brands I ever followed when I started my instagram page. The collections were so dreamy, the aesthetic so on point. I’ve been dying to try something, anything from this brand for so long! I finally managed to scrape together enough $$$ for a full set and here are my thoughts….

    First of all, this lingerie is very expensive. It’s not helped that I am in Australia and that the USD to AUD conversion is absolutely terrible.

    Also not helping is that I wanted the full set. The bralette is $159, thong $124, Waspie $360 and petal skirt $341 USD. So nearly $1000 USD for a set. There is also a 5th product in this range which is the starlit teddy, its absolutely stunning.

    I enquired about custom sizing for the bralette as the sizes for all products are the standard XS-L. I was very lucky and was able to have the bralette custom made in my size. It’s important to note that it is custom sizing only, the design is exactly the same as the standard size range. The waspie, thong and skirt I ordered in the standard size medium. It took a couple of weeks to make as each item is made to order. When it arrived each item came individually wrapped in tissue paper along with the most recent catalog and campaign images. I was so excited to open everything up but I was extra careful, knowing how delicate everything was.

    Honestly, seeing this lingerie in person for the first time was breathtaking. The lightness, the details and the seamless finishing had me in awe. I was actually afraid to try this set on, it looked too perfect for it to be real. I tried on the custom bralette only and carefully rewrapped the other items and put them away. I’m happy to say the bralette fit perfectly. It’s not a supportive bralette, it could never be with these materials. But I’m super impressed with how well it works on a larger bust. It still has that whimsical, dainty air to it even though there is a lot more material and coverage. The straps and edging used on it are not particularly thick or plush. I do not find them uncomfortable at all, they are surprisingly soft and smooth.

    I tried on all items but the waspie. Unfortunately because it doesn’t have a front busk its quite a lot harder to get on. It takes a lot of patience to loosen the laces, slide it over your head and lace it back down. I had a helping hand from a friend when I did finally try it on. A busk would ruin the aesthetic of the waspie so I totally understand why its not part of the design but it is something to think about if you have limited mobility or are crazy impatient like myself.

    The waspie comes with 4 detachable suspender straps as well so you can choose to wear it with stockings or without. It also gives you the option for wearing the waspie as outerwear in place of a belt over a dress.

    I’m very surprise to find my favourite part of this set is actually the skirt! I nearly didn’t order it as I thought I wouldn’t wear it much. Turns out I love it. I think perhaps because there is more of the fabric which I absolutely adore. I’m all about the extras when it comes to a lingerie set be it a robe, harness, choker or in this case, a skirt. I think it just gives it a more complete look.

    I would definitely say hand wash only these items and I make sure I do them seperate. Nothing worse than a stray hook snagging the material. It’s definitely not an everyday set but it’s a set you will treasure forever.

    The quality on this set is just outstanding and it really has spoilt me, other lingerie just doesn’t seem as good anymore. I’m currently planning on purchasing from two other collections from Evgenia Lingerie. I’m completely obsessed and slightly annoyed at waiting so long to try! I can happily say this is the best money I’ve spent on lingerie in a long time.

  • Adina Reay Fran review.

    Adina Reay Fran review.

    It’s been slowly coming around for awhile, but there are now options for luxury lingerie for the fuller bust customer. Adina reay is one of these brands that focusing on the luxury fuller bust market and currently serves the dd_G 28-38 customers. It doesn’t cover the entire fullerbust range as that would be huge, but it’s a very good start.

    I ordered the Fran set in red. The bra in a 28FF initially and the suspender briefs in a small. When it arrived it was clear that the 28FF was far too small so I exchange it for a 28G. The process to exchange is fairly simple. You just email Adina Reay and they send through the document for the courier pick up. You do have to call the courier company to arrange the pick up, for me this was really hard. I struggle with calling people, it gives me huge anxiety I literally put it off for a month because it gave me so much stress. It would have been great if their was an online option.

    The knickers are so comfortable to wear! The mesh is super soft against the skin even with all the vertical detail panels. I’m surprised how well they held up stockings. I wore this set for 6hrs walking around and sitting and they stayed in place no worries. If you are on the smaller side of your size measurements it may not be the same. I’m on the upper end of small so it worked for me. My one major concern if you would wear these knickers with the suspenders all the time is how well the fabric would hold up to the constant pull of the stockings. The fabric warped a little when I wore them for 6 hrs, I’m not sure how much more they would warp if worn regularly.

    The bra feels beautiful on but it doesn’t feel super secure. It’s made from the same really soft mesh which feels beautiful against the skin. I’d heard that this style ran big that’s why I initially ordered the 28FF. I can confirm it does run big in the band but only because of the materials used in construction. So I’ve had this set for awhile and I’m finally reviewing it. The main reason for the delay is because at first I didn’t like this set on me. But slowly I’ve noticed I’ve been reaching for this set to wear. It’s perfect for those lazy days when you want comfort, nothing to delicate or fussy and more support than a bralette. It’s definitely not one of the most supportive bras I own but it’s definitely one of the most comfortable.

    My only regret with this purchase is that I didn’t get a 3 piece set. I like the suspender knickers but I find I wear them only as normal knickers without the stockings. They always seem like a good idea but never actually end up being used as much. This set doesn’t actually come with a matching suspender which explains why I went with the suspender knickers all those months ago.

    All in all I’d say I like this set but I don’t love it. The bra band isn’t firm enough for my liking and doesn’t give as much support as I would like. The suspender knickers are ok. I’d much prefer a separate suspender and normal knickers, preferably seamless. I think its a good brand but next time I think ill try a product that perhaps has more structure and support to it and hopefully a 3 piece set.

  • Katherine Hamilton Abrielle review.

    Katherine Hamilton Abrielle review.

    This set has been gifted to be by Katherine Hamilton. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

    I really love it when brands do a 28 band. I love it even more when they actually make lingerie I want to wear. Usually its hard to find that perfect combo of fashion/comfort/fit in one brand but Katherine Hamilton is giving all us D+ gals what we have been wishing for for years.

    I was gifted the Abrielle set in the navy (also comes in black) in a size 28H and the high waisted briefs in a size 12. This set retails for 206 GBP or roughly $370 AUD.

    So these are not my usual sizes. I’d say I’m a solid 28GG and a Solid size 10. I was advised to size up in this bra as it came up a tad small. Ive tried Katherine Hamilton before and I know the briefs I had back then came up small so I went ahead and ordered the next size up. I’m not sure if this is true for all the products but I would generally say if in between sizes, size up.

    I absolutely fell in love with this set when I first saw it pop up on my instagram feed. It reminds me of I.D sarrieri but for Fuller bust people and I think it would be a lot more durable (Just guessing I’ve never tried I.D sarrieri as I’m sized out). I think the idea of the embroidery being so detailed and petit really appealed to me as a fuller bust customer as usually they are not terms I would describe fuller bust lingerie with.

    We know this set is obviously beautiful so I’ll tell you a bit about this set that isn’t as easy to spot. The top layer of the cup comprises of French embroidery on a sheer mesh. This is what lays on top of the structural cup to give it the tattoo effect. The structural cup Is a 3 piece full cup with the additional side sling for forward projection. The top layer is mostly just floating very precisely on top of the structural cup and is held in place with some very well concealed stitches. You have the support of a full cup bra but with the look of a Demi bra. The straps are fully adjustable and the back as 3 rows and 3 columns of hook and eyes in this size. The straps are wide enough that they don’t dig in but not so wide as to feel bulky.

    This is seriously one of the most comfortable bras I have ever tried, I feel like it was made for me. It feels firm and supportive without feeling it like its digging in anywhere. I think this is because of the specialist wires Katherine hamiltion has developed specifically to combat the issues that usually arise when wearing a bra as a full busted person. Out of all the bras I’ve tried in my life, I feel like this one has the best combination of fit, comfort and fashion. Its like finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

    The briefs at first I thought weren’t going to fit me. I have particularly wide thigh bones so it was a bit of a stuggle getting them on. I was so afraid I was going to rip them! I slowly wiggled my way into them and when they were on they fitted perfectly! They were slightly big on the waist but I definitely couldn’t size down in them, I would 100% rip the size 10 if I tried to get them on. I’ll take slightly big waist band over ripped knickers any day.

    This is definitely one of my all time favourite sets, the only thing its missing is a matching suspender belt! I have seen a sneak peak of the upcoming collection and I’m happy to report that there is some absolutely drop dead gorgeous lingerie sets heading our way and I did spot a suspender for one of the sets. I’m saying goodbye to my money already as I NEED everything from the next collection.

    Why wait for the next collection? Shop this set from Katherine Hamilton now, available in sizes 26-36 D-HH.
