  The latest faux vintage lingerie, corset and seamed stocking collections by What Katie Did. What Katie did have been manufacturing lingerie inspired by 1940s and 1950s pin up since 1999.

What Katie Did officially produce 2 collections a year: released in September and March. However, there are always a few little goodies launched in between to keep you going!

 

Sarah Lingerie

To begin with we have Sarah, a delicate pink lingerie range including our signature bullet bra (would you believe it's 2 years since we released our last spiral stitch bullet bra?) Sarah also includes a super-cinching waspie which is idea for wearing under 1950s style nipped-in-waist summer dresses.

Availability: What Katie Did website, boutique and stockists.

Hollywood Lingerie and Loungewear

If you like to remain glamorous whilst lounging at home then we've got Hollywood for you: a range of black with cream lace trim lingerie and loungewear inspired by Hollywood's golden age.

Availability: What Katie Did website, boutique and stockists.

 

Retro Swimwear

2010 sees us take our swimwear to the next level with a super-cute sailor inspired swimsuit and bikini, plus a new classic swimsuit and bikini in black and claret.

Availability: What Katie Did website, boutique and stockists. Claret exclusive to the What Katie Did website and boutique.

Sheer Cabaret Corsets

Did you know that in the past there were corsets made especially for the hotter climate with cane boning and aertex type fabric? We've made our 'summer' Cabaret corsets a little more glamorous using sheer fabrics in vintage peach and classic black.

Availability: What Katie Did website, boutique and stockists.

 

Tempest Corset

We're constantly being asked for corsets for bigger busts, and so we're pleased to introduce Tempest, which joins Dolly to cater for D+ girls.  Tempest has shaped cups and ribbon fastening at the top (and hips) so you can adjust as much as you need to for a perfect fit.

Availability: What Katie Did website, boutique and stockists.

 

Deco lingerie

Deco Lingerie

Our black Deco lingerie range is inspired by the Art Deco movement and features a Deco style sunburst on the bottom of the bra cups - the idea stolen shamelessly from a 1940s piece! The range is completed by a serious little waspie and Lady Gaga style opaque dance knickers.

Availability: What Katie Did website, boutique and stockists.

 

Fully Fashioned Stockings

We've just launched a new range of fully fashioned seamed stockings. If you haven't tried fully fashioned stockings before you're in for a treat! They're made on vintage Reading machines which date back to the heyday of seamed nylons so you're definitely getting the real thing. But, undoubtably the best thing about our new range is that they're a third cheaper than our old, discontinued, line!

Availability: What Katie Did website and boutique.

Fully Fashione Stockings

 

Besame Cosmetics

We're extremely excited to let you know that the cult faux vintage cosmetic range 'Besame' is now available in our boutique. The range combines top quality highly pigmented ingredients with the most glamorous (and authentic) vintage style packaging.

The range is only available in our London boutique at the moment. 3 out of the 4 members of staff we have there are fully qualified make up artists who will be able to ensure you pick the perfect red lipstick for your skin tone.

 

Showgirl Tights

If you're anything like me, the idea of glamour is alluring, but at 7am on a cold morning it isn't exactly practical. Until now! We're very excited to launch our Showgirl seamed tights which are made on the same machinery as our fully fashioned stockings - so they come complete with picot lines and a proper sewn seam.

There were lots of 'oohs and aahs' going around the office when they arrived as they add subtle vintage glamour to the most conservative of office outfits. Being 'sheer' through to the waist means no panty lines making them idea to wear with high cut costumes.

Availability: What Katie Did website and boutique.

Striptease - New Shade of Eau de Nil

Eau de nil is the perfect shade for those of you who are fans of BBC3's Glamour's Golden Age series. While most of us can't afford suites in Claridges I'm sure you can splash out on an item from out range of Striptease lingerie in the popular 1930s shade of eau de nil (a delicate pastel green-blue).

Starting at just £10 the range includes an eyemask, garter, bralette, bloomers and our immensely popular tie side knickers.

Availability: What Katie Did website and boutique.
