Corsets, Latex and shoes sale!!

Tue, 10 Aug 2010 18:41:07 GMT

I decided to part with a few items of my collection some of which no longer fit! (I seem to have lost quite a bit of weight since the pictures were taken) and need to make room for other things too as Im running out of storage space :) Prices do not include shipping and handling from UK, and I accept payment through either Paypal or national bank transfer.

CORSETS:

Starting with this wonderful Lady Lucie corset in leopard print with a satin trim, it was done to measure and it fitted wonderfully a year ago, it has a stunning shape and will fit a lady with a natural waist size of 24-27" as it's 20" closed and very comfortable while giving an amazing shape. Bust size I am a 30DD but this corset will accomodate a lot of different sizes, I am guessing though a minimum of a B cup. It's in pristine condition as it's only been used in 2 photoshoots of about 20 minutes each. It retails for £240 on the website and you can see more details about it here. This is the exact same corset that was used for the catalogue picture! I am selling it for £150.

Sian Hoffman corset girdle with braces; This girdle was custom made and is a fusion between the panty girdle with belt and the corset girdle, its steel boned and it has a busk. It was only worn very briefly over clothes on this shoot, and the waist size is 20 inches. I decided I would like to get at some point the panty girdle as I already got another corset girdle from Sian in peach (and thats for keepers!). You cannot get this anywhere unless you email Sian and get it custom, the closest thing to it retails at £395, am selling this one for £250. BTW my shape in this hasn't been photoshopped in any way, these corset girdles are the most shapely thing you will ever wear!
SOLD

Maya Hansen cupcake corset, from Maya's site: Underbust fake blue suede finished with pink and red trimmings. The pattern, that incorporates the suspenders at the front and sides, make a very sexy shape at the hips. This corset is so heavy weight and gorgeous with lots of detail, it retails for 350€, I am selling it for £200 and will be including the organza bloomer style knickers (that are gorgeous!) for more views click this link. the corset is 20" and the knickers are a size 8UK or small, but they are adjustable in both waist and legs. This corset was worn only briefly for their catalogue shoot.

Metamorph custom corset made in ivory pearlized leather, with a fan lacing stitch detail in brown and with a black trim. This corset is 20" closed and its suited for C cup onwards (Im a 30DD). A custom overbust by Metamorph would cost you £616, I would like to sell this one for £200 you can check more views and details at their etsy shop! Only worn once for catalogue shoot.

SHOES:

Genuine Vivienne Westwood Red Label platformed Mary-Jane shoes. These retailed for £330, and they are in extremelly good condition as they only been worn indoors for a couple of brief photoshoots. No signs of wear other than a couple of very minor scratches on the soles, hardly noticeable. You cannot buy these anywhere unless you come lucky to find them on ebay or some other auction site as they are now rare. They are a size 37 EU, I am a size between 3 and 4UK and they are slighly too big for me, I reckon it would fit someone between a proper 4UK or 5UK... would like to sell them for £180
SOLD

LATEX:

Lady Lucie High waisted Capri pants with braces. Desc. from Lady Lucie's site: High waisted latex Capri pants with front fly zip and 3 popper fastening detail.

Selling Corsets!

Fri, 26 Mar 2010 16:49:32 GMT

I will be moving houses soon, so I need to downsize my wardrobe and things quick as they take so much space and I need money for furniture and other expenses, so I started parting with some of my corsets (this is only 1/7th of what I got...) they all are 18-20 inches waist, from L'escarpolette, Metamorph, Deadlygirlz (back when they were super curvy) and Puimond.

~~Starting with my 1851 L'escarpolette custom corset~~: SOLD

This corset is made of a finest italian pearlized leather in a dark peacock green shade. It is covered of around 3 hundred crystals of 3 sizes in emerald green. Pictures dont really do it justice so there is a small videoclip on my website wearing it so you can see it sparkle: ~~http://www.threnodyinvelvet.com~~. L'Escarpolette corsets are a rarity these days, since she stopped corset making and disappeared, however, her corsets were always beautiful and very well made. This corset is 20" closed, I think the bust and hips are both about 32-33" and it comes in a corset bag. I don't know how much to ask for it since it was quite pricey and the leather was very rare too, but I am taking offers to morgana@iberianblackarts.com

Puimond py11 Long overbust in black cherry blossoms, I bought this one at fairygothmother years ago, but it hasn't been worn much other than a couple of shoots, its in really good condition, and retails for £345, this corset is 18" closed and has a modesty panel in the back. I would like to sell it for £200.

Metamorph custom corset made in ivory pearlized leather, with a fan lacing stitch detail in brown and with a black trim. This corset is 20" closed and its suited for C cup onwards (Im a 30DD). A custom overbust by Metamorph would cost you 650€, I would like to sell this one for £200

~~Deadlygirlz black PVC underbust corset full of buckles! back when they were super curvy, they don't make them like this anymore. This one is 20" closed and comes in a box. would like £100 for it.~~ SOLD

Another Deadlygirlz curvy gorgeous corset. This one was custom made for me, but also 20". I have a pair of shoes that match in size 4UK that I could throw in for only £15 more, I would like to sell this one for £120 or nearest offer. SOLD

Prices do not include shipping or paypal fees, they will be calculated upon destination etc. :)

Maya Hansen - Lost in Prague photoshoot

Wed, 24 Feb 2010 16:03:59 GMT

I recently went to Spain to see my relatives and Valencia Fashion Week, where Maya Hansen was closing the event with her new Steampunk collection catwalk show. It was absolutely beautiful! then I went to Madrid and we shot some of her outfits for the catalogue and website, as you can see in the video above. Maya also did a catwalk show at Cibeles (Madrid) and she rocked it. I am very proud of her as she is getting the recognition she deserves.

Oh and the new Maya Hansen website frontpage... I love it to bits! :D

Morgana Femme Couture

MF1330 Modernized 1907 Edwardian S curve corset with lace overlay shown here in Gold/Black. Matching nipple pasties available in Small 5cm, Medium 6cm and Large 7cm. Not to be confused for the “Edwardian shaped bottom” corsets seen elsewhere and on some of our own corsets. This entire corset is patterned and boned drastically different and is as close to the original 1907 version with a few adjustments to make it far more comfortable to wear unlike the authentic corsets made back then. This corset has hip gussets and best worn as a long line.

Kiss Me Deadly new collections - Spring/Summer 2010

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 16:26:21 GMT

For Spring and Summer 2010, we've chosen to follow the characters of A Midsummer Nights Dream as they make their way through the woods in the night to the palace in the daytime. Painted backdrops bring the ambience of the theatre performances of the the play, and you can see the different women's feelings if you can take your eyes off the lingerie long enough!

See regal Hippolyta in her vingage peach longline bra and satin suspender, Hermia elope in a corselette, garter skirted fairy Queen Titania, Helena lovelorn in peach and joyous in midnight blue silk, and Puck playing amongst them all with her love potion in mischievous longline bow knickers.
