Ayten Gasson & Kiss Me Deadly

Remember the skull & rose print bra that I made last month? Well, I wore it last week. It was certainly a better fit than the first bra I made, but it still wasn’t all that comfortable.

I have a few ideas regarding underwires, and I thought it might fit better if I gave the bra a much wider band. So I did a search for “longline bra” thinking that even if all the results were frumpy and horrible, I might get some construction ideas that I could translate into pretty fabrics.

You can imagine my surprise then, when one of the first pictures that came up was the one above! Isn’t it lovely? It’s part of the Lady M range by Ayten Gasson. Ayten specialises in vintage-inspired lingerie, all of which is hand made in the UK from silk and Nottingham lace.

Another designer that features all manner of pretty things is Kiss Me Deadly. Vintage-inspired again, and with a gorgeous range of shapewear. Most of their items are limited edition, so if you see something you like you need to snap it up quickly!

Sadly for me the longline bra that matches this gorgeous girdle is sold out already, otherwise I’d have gone for the whole set!

Never mind making my own bras, I think I might need to go shopping…

  2. so much pretty! I *wish* they were available in a wider range of sizes. I mean, I understand the commercial reality that a 38GG bra is both more complicated to make and being sold to a smaller number of people than a 36B, but that doesn’t make me want vintage inspired silk pretties any less!
