A real quality product
A real quality product, excellent fit and secure clasps that keep stockings in place.
I would like a boned suspender belt that is deeper and which fits higher up the waist.

Fantastic garment, absolutely gorgeous to the eye
Fantastic garment, absolutely gorgeous to the eye and a pleasure to wear in or out. The belt loops could be lower or provide a row of loops to adjust the belt lower. 100% satisfied with the Kimono. Ty WKD!

I love this beautiful Peach Glamour Nouveau Merry
I love this beautiful Peach Glamour Nouveau Merry Widow. It is quite firm and robust and gives me a perfect hourglass shape. It is comfortable to wear and the boning allows me to bend easily. I have matching Harlow knickers and the French knickers which both look great.

Gorgeous knickers
Incredibly comfortable underwear, and matches beautifully with the bra. Definitely makes you feel like a vintage vixen when paired together. I used my usual high-street size and that fit perfect.

Beautiful bra
Absolutely beautiful bra! So comfortable, well made, and the perfect silhouette for when you want either just a hint of vintage glamour or the full experience. Had a sizing issue but Charlie was so helpful and patient, it was sorted with no problem.

I haven't worn these yet but have tried them on
I haven't worn these yet but have tried them on and they feel soft and silky. They fit well and the shape is flattering. I am delighted. I intend to wear them with my peach Merry Widow. The only thing perhaps that I would change are the buttons. They are ok but some flatter mother of pearl buttons would work better under clothes but that's just my opinion.

Pagoda 1950’s Fitted Dress
When the package arrived I didn’t believe a dress as nice as this could be inside, but when the wife put it on the fit and look of the dress is stunning. Very nice 👍
