Bonjour, Coquettes! With Halloween fast approaching, we thought we'd shake things up a bit. Instead of showing you the finest frills money can buy as we normally would, this week, we showcase some of the wildest (and in some cases, scariest) lingerie we've ever set eyes on, as well as some similar and more wearable looks you can find in our drawers at the shop.
Our first in this strange lingerie series could easily spark another round of crusades:
If weekend jousting isn't really your thing, but the idea of metalwork on lingerie piques your interest, we have just the thing. May we suggest something with tasteful hardware and fewer sharp edges, courtesy of Marlies Dekkers:
And, watch for this new little confection from Ms. Dekkers later on this winter:
We move on to a cautionary image that depicts the hazards of DIY lingerie:
Drop the Bedazzler, Doll-- the last thing you want to do is blind the poor chap once you've got him in the boudoir. You can still razzle dazzle him, but keep it simple and classy, Stella McCartney style:
While we adore so many of the cagey, bondage styles we see, if you're not careful, the look can come off a bit too conceptual and downright tangly:
The key here is simplicity in chaos. Bordelle's minidress is hot as hell with a tangle-free strappy effect that only requires you to slip in, zip up the back, and let the power play begin.
More concrete than any grainy UFO snapshot, the next piece in our journey through uncharted lingerie territories is all the evidence you'd need to conclude that we are not alone:
A lady must always be vigilant of clever little men creeping up their backseams. Give the poor guy's arms a break by slipping into a pair of fishnet Wolfords with a ladder effect made of delicate mini bows:
Next, a rather unusual play on the term "catsuit..."
If anyone can turn this unfortunate look around, it's the creative geniuses at Aubade with their sexy "Boite a Desir" kit. Kitten ears, bowtie, g-string, action:
Then of course, there will always be the looks that even we, in our infinite acceptance and passion for boundary-pushing lingerie, have no words for:
Disney nipplets-- perhaps not the greatest idea for a brand extension?
... Well, at least it's supportive...
There it is, Coquettes! Hope you had a few laughs and got a few wild inspirations!
À bientôt!
