Ihuoma X Orchid Kauri Underbust

"...We chose this piece as your key investment corset if you were only to choose one. An underbust style that has a tried and tested fit across body types, longer line for smoother lines under clothing but striking enough to style as outer wear. This piece does it all!"

Part of a new collaboration collection with indie lingerie brand Ihuoma, a fellow UK based artisanal lingerie designer, with an intrinsic aim to celebrate the divine feminine, centered on Black beauty but exquisite on every skin tone.

The subtle and refined shaping of this corset is perfect for that "you on your best day" silhouette, and it's structure is carefully developed for a breathable but durable piece. Ihuoma's signature sumptuous shades team deliciously with the soft gold tones of the cowrie embroidery, laid over our Mocha corset mesh for support.

External boning channels draw attention to the soft curves and add a structured finish to this graceful, timeless corset. Fpr styling inspiration, team with the matching lingerie pieces available at Ihuoma, or a pair of cocoa Palazzo pants and a loose linen shirt.
