I suppose that Spring is typically the season of renewal, so that either makes me early or late for this introduction! But one of the pieces detailed here has been in the works for over a year, so it's really just a happy coincidence of timings that I can present you with three new corsetry offerings for the Autumn season!
Firstly, the BIG announcement. It was back in 2019 that Naomi, founder of Edge O' Beyond lingerie first suggested that we bring out a collaborative design, and immediately I accepted. I was already a big fan of their designs (and had been since their first collection) and over the years, Naomi has firmly placed herself in my corner. Always open with advice, support, and when it came to getting my first production run done for the Heledd, it was with her South Wales atelier that we made it all happen! So with their 10th brand anniversary on the horizon, we finally began to really put our heads together over the Summer of '24, deciding to create a companion corset for the bestselling Charlotte collection! If you'd like a deep dive into this project, I've written a journal entry about it, so do pour yourself a tea and settle in.
So without further ado, let me introduce the new Charlotte corset, a waspie inspired by our classic Seirian style, featuring padded hip arcs, detailed rose embroidery and sumptuous deep red silk satin panels. This corset has a whole co-ordinating lingerie set to team it with, echoing the same stitch detailing and gold metalwork. It treads a careful line between romantic heroine and sultry femme fatale, Charlotte truly is a beauty to wear and behold.
But wait! There's more!
Also returning to your wish list, is a brand-new revision of our classic style, the Perle Luxe, re-imagined in Viridian green silk with tonal sheer green mesh. I've been busy updating the pattern for this corset with a more sophisticated cut to the pattern, even more graceful curves, and making this corset a little shorter in the body, for those who find our Heledd corset a bit too long! Whilst I am excited to bring out some more detail oriented styles soon, I always valued the Perle for letting the shape and structure do the talking. Especially when it's made in such a vibrant, arresting shade. This style would team perfectly with the Edge O' Beyond Elly range in black mesh, think of the high neck bralette, sleeves and ruched skirt for a seductive lingerie or liasion ensemble.
Perle Luxe is made to order, available now.
