All of a sudden, it’s that time of year again and you want to give lovely gifts for everyone on your list but money is a bit tight. Well, we are here to help with some of the greatest deals on designer lingerie that won’t break the bank or require lowering the quality of your gifts. The only downside is that with great deals comes limited time and inventory, so you’ll need to move quickly.
Cozy Cutie
Catriona MacKechnie’s sale page has top designer lingerie and swimwear bargains at discounts ranging from 20 – 70 % off. The downside is you’ll need time to look as it takes 3 screens to see the price of any item, that’s a lot of back and forth considering the amount of inventory, but worth it when you find something like the Acrylic Wrap Robe by Skin at 50% off -now only $83 – $94, available in Large only.
Flirts
From now until Monday, November 23rd., you can pick up Roberto Cavalli underwear for men & women at U.K. membership site vente_privee. Looking for a little something for your curvy girl, Bare Necessities Outlet has the fun and flirty, split sleeve Betsey Johnson’s Wheel in the Sky babydoll & matching G-string at 40% off -now only $53, and available in sizes 1X & 2X.
Olympian
Just because you like to sweat doesn’t me you don’t want a bit of luxury too! Inspired by his many years working in a gym and the trials and tribulations undergone by his female clients, Simeon Dacumos decided to create contouring lingerie that would complement the female form and truly make women feel confident and sexy. This lingerie uses silk and French lace is now it’s up to 75% off at Glamorous Amorous with prices starting as low as £12.
Romantic
Romance is in the air at Sexy Panties And Naughty Knickers. Ok, I know I just posted this a little while ago, but I must mention it again as these are great deals and perfect for that hopeless romantic in your life. The beautiful, versatile and 100% silk Viva nighty is 75% off, now only £20/$35 (was £79/$129) and the matching knickers are 50% off (rrp. £30/$50) now £15/$25 and if that’s not enough the 100% silk dressing gown is still available at the giveaway price of £30/$45 (but they’re only a few left) alas the dressing gown is from the old logo stock and probably can’t be shipped to the U.S. or Canada. Also, if you’re having trouble with the site feel free to give them a call at + 44 (0) 208 740 8621.
In December I’ll feature the Virgin, Vixen, Sophisticate and there will even be a little something for the menfolk!
This season’s secret is out: Velda Lauder has brought out her fabulous new collection and with it comes a ‘diffusion line’ – and it’s available now at La Magia!
Fabulous Corsets by Velda Lauder
Satin Underbust Bow Corset
As someone who has had the privilege to have been laced up into one of Velda Lauder’s amazing corsets (by the lovely and talented lady herself) I can vouch for how fabulous they really are. The aforementioned corset felt and looked incredible, and once laced up, I felt and by golly I looked like a new person – my normally 30 inch waist was reduced to a petite 26 inches and I was surprised by how comfortable I was.
Affordable Luxury
Military Cotton Drill Waspie
Since then I’ve had my beady eye on the Velda Lauder military waspie: in order not to sound like a broken (Destiny’s Child) record I won’t mention why I haven’t taken the plunge, however things are looking up for those who, like me, have had to put off buying ‘luxury’ items in the last wee while: you can now own a Velda Lauder corset for £120.
The new ‘diffusion line’ also ensures that those, who have never before dared to try a corset, can now go for it without the potentially terrifying finality of buying something ‘made to order’. The corsets may not be handmade (as are the rest of Velda’s collections) however with the experience and reputation of this corsetiere, you really can’t go wrong.
It’s Not Just Corsets!
Off The Shoulder Mesh Top and Swarovski and Mesh Underbust Corset
As if we hadn’t had enough excitement, Velda has also introduced a range of lingerie alongside her beautifully designed corsets – if I had to pick a favourite it would be the Off the shoulder mesh top (above, £40), but equally fabulous are the Chantilly lace pieces (which are currently available to order at La Magia); and if you’re feeling cheeky, why not go for the gorgeous feather under skirt (£50).
Get Your Order In!
Overbust Deep-plunge Swarovski Crystal Corset
Whether you fancy splashing out on an amazing, handmade corset (above) or going for a more wallet-friendly version, Velda Lauder’s corsets are worth every penny. Now the secret has been revealed it’s worth getting your order in before the queue gets too long – and just think: if you’re going for a ‘ready made’ corset, you’ll have it in time for the Christmas party season!
The new Velda Lauder Corset collection is available now at La Magia.
SmartAss thongs are the perfect sassy stocking stuffing gift for all of your gal pals and from now until December 20th they are offering 25% off your entire order. Just use promotion code: Holiday2009 at checkout.
Lingerie Noir for the Holidays
I am a big fan of the divine Mlle. Frou Frou blog, she post the most amazing lingerie photos, the latest happenings in the world of lingerie and what’s new at Faire Frou Frou. A couple of weeks ago her post Lingerie Noir featured photos from a Film Noir inspired shoot by Paolo Roversi for Vogue Italy. Not only were the images stunning they were also achievable, in both price and look, for mortal women. They used designers including What Katie Did, La Perla, Rago Shapewear, and Cervin Hosiery -they produce stocking for Agent Provocateur, so with a little detective work of my own, I found similar pieces from these designers and more at great prices and some even On Sale!
To achieve these looks you’ll need a basic black La Perla bra, Rago girdle, satin thong, Cervin stockings, a cigarette holder, opera gloves and your choice of outerwear.
Right now Nancy Meyer has beautiful black La Perla bras on sale for 40% off, with prices ranging from as low as $45. I love the La Perla Black Label: Diamond Full Cup Bra (was $170) now $102.
Rago has been making shapewear for 70 years and their signature style is easy to spot and the best part is that it regularly retails for under $50. Currently at Lauren Silva you can find Rago on sale for approx. $30.
For your getaway sticks, Hepburn & Leigh have 100% nylon, 15 denier Cervin’s black contrast seamed stockings -in platinum, on sale for only £6.50. (I am so tempted!)
La Magia has the What Katie Did opera length black gloves, though not on sale £17.50 is a great price and the Goddess black satin thong is on sale for only £4 and they offer free shipping worldwide.
For a bit of luxury go with Carine Gilson Couture Silk & Lace Thong, from Faire Frou Frou, now $103 (was $206)… go ahead, you deserve it!
There’s also the gorgeous silk bodysuit from Stella McCartney at the Outnet now 50% off -$110. Wear it with only a fur collar coat, stockings and high heels for something really smashing.
For larger sizes check out Secrets in Lace. They carry Dita von Teese and Bettie Paige hosiery, pin-up lingerie from their signature line, shapewear from Rago as well as pieces from Fantasie/Freya and Felina.
Top that off with a rhinestone cigarette holder from House of Lounge for only $13 and you’re 90% there.
Multi-national corporation ebay and even some of their beleaguered sellers will have a great holiday season, for ebay buyers… not so much, more and more I see prices going well above retail. It’s in ebay’s best interest that you pay retail or more -the more the item sells for the more commission they make, so to say the least research, research, research! A lot of the lingerie and boudoir items sold on ebay can be found via the internet for less (i.e. Jimmyjane massage oil candles are close to full price on ebay but at the Jimmyjane website they’re more than 50% off). Best places to look:
Well Knickers Bargains of course. We scour the web for the best deals on designer lingerie from all over the world, as well as exclusive discount for our readers. In the past couple of months we’ve posted sales including savings as high as 85% off Sexy Panties & Naughty Knickers, 70% off Made by Niki, 70% at Glamorous Amorous and more.
If you do plan on shopping ebay use search engines like Fat Fingers to uncover hidden treasures due to misspellings. It’s a brilliant site and their slogan is “Other peoples typos can save you money” says it all. Spend some time researching other sites. It’s as simple as Googling product name or checking places like Amazon.com (both Lauren Silva and Gigi’s Closet have stock listed there). There’s Froogle searchable and browsable shopping index tuned to finding products on sale online. And of course feel free to ask us! If there’s something in particular you are looking for drop us a line and we’ll be happy to help! There’s also places like RetailmeNot, Bing and ebates for coupon code offering free shipping and rebates on your online purchases. Happy Bargain Shopping!
This isn’t your regular little black lingerie set — Coco de Mer’s “Loreli” looks innocent enough at first glance, but that eyelash lace is setting off a naughty PVC core. We love any set that can be billed as “wipe clean” and still look this good, and we think your vixen will like it too! £115 for the set at Coco de Mer, or $210 at Coco de Mer USA.

After hearing how Danae got on with her Waistnipper under her wedding dress, I was keen to try the Flexees Waistnipper to see how it would fare wearing it under everyday wear…
Flexees Long Torso Waistnipper
Get it at: Asos (UK) Macy’s (US)
Price: £20 / $24.50
Sizing: S – XL (UK) S – 3XL (US)
Colours: Black and white (UK) Black, blush and white (US)
The Verdict : Comfortable for all day wear, and great for smoothing, support and defining the waist.
Shapewear has become a slight obsession over the last wee while and having tried and been impressed with the Flexees Onesie I couldn’t wait to try the Waistnipper!
Without a hint of exaggeration I had that nipper on as soon as it came out of its wrapper – all (scratchy) labels still attached. I haven’t been that excited about a product for quite some time, and luckily it didn’t let me down. As soon as I got it on (which was a heck of a lot easier than I thought, given the amount of hooks and eyes) I gazed at my newly-transformed torso – it was truly amazing – I had a proper waist, I was smoothed, and the all important thing: my tummy was a good few inches flatter. I wore the nipper that same evening to a lovely event at Boudiche in Edinburgh, where I couldn’t resist showing it to one of the girls – who shared my enthusiasm.
I’m delighted and at the same time a little ashamed to say I have worn the nipper ever since – if I thought there was any point, other than loving it so much, I would wear it in bed as well. I’ve worn it under dresses and with jeans and I’m now more comfortable with it on than off – it just feels right. It hasn’t eliminated the protruding tummy problem completely, but unless a couple of whales felt like sacrificing themselves and their bones for me, I don’t think my tummy will ever be flat.
I love Flexees Firm Control Long Torso Waistnipper, to give it its full name; I love it because of its comfort, design and its incredibly reasonable price. I now have my eye on the Luleh Retro Chic Waistnipper – partly because the name’s drawing me to it, but mainly because now I’ve had a taste of a Flexees waistnipper, I don’t think I’ll be able to get by without them!
