Old style tailoring with a new twist. Forbidden Linen’s digitally printed handkerchiefs ($45) are slightly naughty and utterly beautiful. Self described “textile titillation,” these linens are anything but ordinary!

Whilst we have coveted their delicious bow backed and corseted knickers from UK sweetheart Damaris,

they have blown this lil lady off her stool with the enviable Corseted Body Suit ( $295)

pictured…….my long weekend is looking more exciting by the minute!

The Bandeau bra  ($295) is the most flattering of cuts, and as with the brief ($175), has a pastel pink ribbon corseted toped with a rose bud, for that milk maid -esque charm.

 Yes, they are finally here! The long awaited black body contour high waisted brief ($69.95) with matching convertible bra ($99.95). First spotted in Willow’s ‘Homage to Newton’ catwalk show back in ‘07 (shown above) and inspired by Helmut Newton’s exquisite black and white photography. Matching short also available ($59.95).

Not to be outdone is the deliciously styled ‘Vintage Passion’ range in heavily stitched satin with a divine corset bra ($169.95)and short ($59.95). Colours available are 1950’s apricot and gorgeous slate grey. Perfect for the vintage vixen in you.

Sweet, seductive, playful. 

The first delivery of Bien Fée Pour Toi (roughly translating to ‘good fairy for you’) is now in store! Delicate frou frou for the coquette in you.

The ‘Colombe’ range comes in sweet self spot cotton in classic white or lemon with soft pink. This set comes in a beautifully cut balconette bra and the most divine heart shaped knicker we’ve seen! (shown below, $105).

Our favourite pieces are from the ‘Smoking’ range of just-whipped-cream silk with black polka dots: the perfectly shaped balconette bra ($160) and brief ($125). Shown above.

 … and that is just the beginning!

Damaris’ first delivery of 2008 is here, and with shades of electric yellow, soft peach and gold, white silk and silver lamé, and white polka dot with soft yellow trim, these lovely pieces are as luxurious as they are cheeky. In opulent lace and silks, with metallic touches and figure flattering cuts, these opulent fabrics are matched with deliciously naughty details as in the luxurious bow back knickers with cheeky peek-a-boo bottom (shown above) for devastatingly sexy results.

From Madame V comes the most opulent and exquisite of garments, the corset. Crafted  in beautifully soft black silk with steel boning, front busk and rear lacing, this little nipper will take up to 4” off your waist!

Unlike overbust corsets, the cincher starts directly below the bust and comes to the hip line. Perfect with a crisp white shirt and pencil skirt for a night out, or with pasties and knickers for the boudoir! This versatile piece is smooth enough to wear beneath clothing for a truly pronounced waist.
