Based in the UK and owned by Hungarian designer Linda Miller, Divaurae is a handmade brand that pulls inspiration from a wide variety of sources. I spoke with Linda to discuss colour, cohesion, and creating lingerie that conjures up a specific mood.
As a late eighties baby, the original Lucy Jones Lingerie was before my time. It was founded by Lucy Jones in Liverpool in 1980 and went on to what I can only describe as phenomenal success for a small, independent brand, being stocked in leading department stores including the likes of Harrods.
Fréolic London is a premium brand that’s focused on making the experience of buying luxurious, semi-bespoke lingerie more accessible and affordable. They offer pre-designed garment shapes that can be ordered in a (very!) wide array of colour and fabric choices.
