  • Lingerie & Hosiery Fabrics Under the Microscope

    by Estelle Puleston May 4, 2025
    by Estelle Puleston May 4, 2025

    My son received a microscope this Christmas just gone and while playing around with it, we popped a sleeve cuff under the lens and well, that got me to thinking about doing a deep dive on lingerie fabrics. You can read about how jacquard is woven or how smooth nylon is, but actually seeing it? I found it fascinating.

  • Where to Buy: Cosy Cashmere, Silk Jersey & Merino Wool Lingerie

    by Wencillia Querbel March 30, 2025
    by Wencillia Querbel March 30, 2025

    My desire for warmth and comfort is greater than ever at this time of the year. Wool, cashmere and thick cotton fabrics are having a moment in my weekly rotation. While we often think of such fabrics as material for outerwear, there are a growing number of options for lingerie meant to protect us from the bite of the cold.

  • Online Bra Fitting & Lingerie Review: Bravissimo Niya, Niya Lace & Dana Bras

    by Estelle Puleston March 23, 2025
    by Estelle Puleston March 23, 2025

    Last year, British retailer Bravissimo asked me if I’d like to have an online bra fitting so in place of a straightforward bra review, I’m splitting this article up into two main parts: a review of the fitting experience and, of course, a review of the lingerie itself.

    by Estelle Puleston February 17, 2025

    My Salon International de la Lingerie trend report was so long that I decided we’d do the usual look back at last year’s trend forecast in a separate article. Here are four key trends I thought we’d be seeing in 2024, and whether we in fact did or not…

    It’s that time of year again when I share my lingerie trend predictions for the coming two seasons, but this time we’re doing things a little differently! For the first time since I began covering the lingerie industry back in 2012, I finally went to one of the industry’s major trade shows: the Salon International de la Lingerie.

  • Where to Find Pretty, Even Sexy Shapewear (Including Lace)

    by Estelle Puleston October 20, 2024
    by Estelle Puleston October 20, 2024

    Shapewear is not my favourite part of the lingerie industry. But I’m getting served more social media ads than ever for colourful, trendy shapewear designs, which made me do a little research and I was pleasantly surprised at just how many not-at-all plain and beige pieces I was able to find.

  • A Guide to Collaborative Custom Lingerie & the Brands That Do It Best

    by Wencillia Querbel October 1, 2024
    by Wencillia Querbel October 1, 2024

    Many independent designers and smaller brands are happy to take on custom orders. A rare few however are also willing to work with other brands to create a set that will actually fit your body type. The beauty of such collaborations resides in the fact that not every brand specialises in the same aspect of lingerie.

Been working on something new for the blog: a deep Been working on something new for the blog: a deep dive into lingerie fabrics, literally! I photographed over 20 pieces from my collection under a microscope so you can learn exactly:
- how jacquard fabrics get their pattern
- why silk satin is shiny but silk georgette isn't
- how cotton jersey's texture compares to polyester jersey
- and much more!

Pictured here: embroidered illusion tulle, silk chiffon, a ribbed synthetic blend, metallic lace, nylon stockings, and jacquard fabric. Lots more in the blog post - I'll link it in my story 🔗

Which of these close-ups most surprised you?

Not exaggerating when I say that these @marjolaine Not exaggerating when I say that these @marjolaine_lingerie silk trousers might well be the comfiest thing I've ever put on my body 👌

I'd had my eye on them for probably a year but they were kinda expensive - recently spotted they were both 30% off and down to the last pair in my size, so it was now or never. I'm glad I got them, I can already tell these are going to feel so lovely and cool in the summer heat!

The other @lovebravissimo bra that I reviewed is D The other @lovebravissimo bra that I reviewed is Dana, a front-close style (and I think only the second front close I currently own along with my super-old Bordelle Thorn?). It didn't work for me fit-wise, but I think that back would look cute styled under a light blue silk camisole in summer!

Also pictured: the Niya and Niya Lace bras, which actually have more differences than just the addition of lace. The full review is on the blog for all the details.

Which of these three bras is your favourite?

This Niya bra by @lovebravissimo is my new everyda This Niya bra by @lovebravissimo is my new everyday favourite one! It's a great moulded style for shallower bust shapes. The full review is up on the blog if you want to read more - link in my bio.

Would you believe I massively stained this right on the front of one of the cups by putting it, an apparently-not-very-colourfast black bra, and a damp facecloth next to each other in my suitcase on the way back from a trip? Four rounds of dye run remover later, you can barely tell. Lesson learned about putting wet things in a suitcase 😅🧳

A new installment in my #lingeriemixnmatch series A new installment in my #lingeriemixnmatch series (the first new one since 2023 😅). It's so very rare that I buy a bra or brief without a matching coordinate, but back in 2016 I was mesmerised enough by Agent Provocateur's Bubbles brief to buy it alone - on sale, so I guess maybe the bra was sold out already in my size? 

I didn't love it as much as I thought I would. Low-quality net and a gusset that doesn't come up anywhere near high enough to make it properly wearable (it's SO uncomfy). But I did still adore the design regardless so I kept it and just... never wore it.

Recently rediscovered it and had the idea to layer it. Turns out it's quite tricky to layer reds - my red lingerie is a real mix of hues, from orangey reds to bluish ones. This old Bras Without Wires set is a pretty close match though! Solves the (lack of) gusset issue, and the Bubbles brief adds visual interest to a cute but fairly basic bra set. 

How would you rate this pairing? 👍👎
