I hate Lady GaGa. I would go so far as to say I LOATHE her. From her ridiculous name, to her even more ridiculous style, she does not have one redeeming feature. Poker face?? I certainly would like to use a poker on her face....so an email titled "GaGa inspired lingerie" did little to whet my fashion appetite. I was very pleasantly surprised to find not some cheap, nylon granny pants intended to be worn as some form of fashion statement, but a link to Bordelle lingerie. The London based lingerie designer was founded by Alex Popa an investment banker who apparently realised after a few years number punching, her real passion lay in, well exactly that - passion.
The idea of Bordelle lingerie is handmade couture underwear that strive to blur the lines between garment classification "giving rise to the terminology Bodywear" This sounds like total garbage spurted directly from the PR's mouth, but when it looks this good, I really couldn't give a toss. These bondage inspired lycra and leather multi-strapped pieces are underwear so sexy, so striking, so damned beautiful, it would be a crime to not wear it as outerwear.
The website is pretty sparse on info, but it does have some AMAZING photo's. http://www.bordelle.co.uk/, and there are a limited number of pieces available to buy online at Peacock&Strutt. But be warned, these prices aren't for the faint of heart.
