We usually have an 8-week turnaround for stock, so our mid-August orders should be arriving now. Except… I forgot to actually send a couple of them. 😬

Here's the tea: running a small vintage lingerie brand means juggling a lot — designing, packing, coffee breaks… and, occasionally, making the odd mistake!

Or step back to the 1920s with our wide-leg black lace palazzo pants — pure boudoir glamour that feels just as daring a century later.

Because some fabrics really do bewitch forever. 🕯️

For something modern and mischievous, our black lace bloomers bring a little Chappell Roan energy — playful, bold, and made for a night of dancing (or dreaming).

Our Priscilla black lace babydoll is back — perfect for layering in true ’90s riot grrrl style, or wearing alone for a quietly decadent evening in.

There’s something about black lace that never loses its power to bewitch. 🖤
From 1920s decadence to 1990s rebellion, it’s the thread that runs through every era of enchantment.

We’ll keep scouring the globe for the finest nylons — because some kinds of glamour are simply too beautiful to fade away. ✨ Seamed Stockings: www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

But there’s still plenty of glamour to go around. Our glossy stretch nylons bring the same vintage look with a little modern comfort — and no need to worry about keeping seams straight. Seamfree Stockings: www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Sadly, we’re nearing the end of our sheer non-stretch black nylons — the kind made on original machinery with that perfect crisp 1950s feel. A final small delivery is due any day now, then… that’s it. Seamfree Stockings: www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Black stockings have always had a certain magic — timeless, mysterious, and a little daring. As we head into the season of candlelight and shadows, there’s no better time to celebrate them. 🖤✨ Seamed Stockings: www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

We were thrilled to see our period-correct 1950s lingerie — bullet bras, roll-on girdles and seamed stockings — used by the costume team to bring that era to life authentically.

The series follows the country’s first women police officers — pioneers who faced public scrutiny, restrictive uniforms, and limited duties as they fought for equality on the force.

When choosing a corset, always pick the one that best suits your measurements, not just your favourite image. Fit is the secret to that perfect hourglass silhouette. 💫

Each look shows how creative styling can completely transform our core collection. Every piece is part of our standard range — timeless designs, made to be worn time and again.

Because true glamour never fades, it just gets a little… curiouser. 🖤

First, our Morticia Underbust Corset — a bestseller since 2008 — worn over our full-length black lace kimono. All the drama, all the elegance.

Then, our Overbust Corset, styled with Priscilla Bloomers and Black Seamed Tights — structured, sultry, and perfectly vintage. ✨

Our Curiouser and Curiouser campaign continues — and this time, it’s all about classic corsetry with a bewitching twist. 🖤

Paired with our adjustable circle skirt, it’s an all-black ensemble that moves beautifully — dramatic, flattering, and endlessly wearable.

Because when it comes to vintage style, black never goes out of season. 🖤

Designed to finish high on the hip, the Corset Top defines the waist while keeping that sleek 1950s silhouette. It’s daring enough to wear on its own (we recommend a liner), or layered over our Black Lace Priscilla Cropped Top for a softer, demure look.

Black magic, the vintage way. 🖤
Our Corset Top isn’t new — but our latest images give it a whole new mood. Styled with our Black Cotton Adjustable Waist Circle Skirt, it’s a vision of dark glamour, just in time for Halloween.
