What Katie Did

I love the vintage feel of lingerie brand What Katie Did. According the website whatkatiedid.com the brand's creator has had a constant obsession with the 1940s and 1950s and now finally, the fashion world has caught up with the bright red lips and voluptuous curves of the era. What better place to shop for 1950s inspired lingerie than a brand that lives and breathes the Hollywood glamour of the time.

The latest Spring Summer collection entitled Vicky, shows a beautiful boudoir theme in the photography and styling. I absolutely fell in love with the brand instantly and couldn't wait to try on some of the products.

These sheer French knickers come from the Cabaret collection which is inspired by 1920s and 30s Berlin. At £30, they are a reasonable price, especially for something that I think personally doesn't have to be confined to underwear.

Maitresse is the collection that epitomises the vintage glamour of the 1950s and really sums up the design and brand values of What Katie Did. I chose the high waisted Maitresses knickers at an even more reasonable £17. They have a satin front and sheer panelling at the sides and fit in great with an underwear as outerwear themed outfit.

I wore the complete outfit along with a thick waist cinching belt that pulled in the bat wings on my top and made the shorts and knickers and belt look like one beautiful outfit.
