Crafted in luxurious black satin, this soft cup bra offers both structure and comfort while recreating the unmistakable conical shape loved by vintage fashion icons.

Designed for true vintage enthusiasts, our Maitresse black satin bullet bra is a faithful reproduction of the original 1950s styles, made without underwires so your natural shape fills the cup for that classic pointed profile. The same satin is used across our other ranges, making it easy to mix and match with your favourite suspender belts, girdles, and knickers for a perfectly coordinated lingerie drawer.

Lovingly made in our long-standing Indian factory—where some of the same skilled machinists have been with us since 2003—this black satin bullet bra exemplifies What Katie Did’s commitment to quality and craftsmanship. It’s a design so iconic that it’s been spotted on celebrities including Katy Perry, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga, cementing its place as a modern classic for lovers of vintage style.

Indulge in the timeless allure of the 1950s with our Maitresse Bullet Bra. A lingerie essential for anyone seeking an authentic silhouette, it’s the perfect foundation for your retro wardrobe and a true celebration of mid-century style.

-   Our Black Satin Bullet Bra is definitely our signature product. Beautifully crafted with a soft-cup spiral stitch, that is supportive, comfortable and 100% period-perfect.
    
    ## A bullet bra for that iconic 1950s silhouette
    
    Our Maitresse Black Satin Bullet Bra coaxes your breasts into the perfect 1950s conical shape. Sits differently to a modern bra, which pushes the breast inwards and upwards. You'll find the retro silhouette it gives, which upgrades the look of both true vintage and reproduction vintage fashion
    
-   Our Maitresse Black Satin Bullet Bra is made from non-stretch satin with just a tiny piece of elastic between the cups, and at the back by the hooks and eyes.
    
    At What Katie Did we use traditional bra sizing methods where your band size is 3-4 inches smaller than your actual underbust measurement so it is a good idea to check the band size of your favourite fitting bra 'as worn' to check, if you are new to our brand.
    
    While you should be the same size as a modern bra if you're an A-D cup, our bullet bras have limited stretch and you might prefer a looser fit. If you are a DD+ and shop with 'true sized' brands you probably will have to ‘sister size’ by going up a band size, and down a cup size. Find out more on our Lingerie Sizing Page.
    
    Our black satin bullet bra is made from 100% polyester exclusive of trim and has been made in the same factory in India since 2003, where we still have some of the same machinists from the very beginning!
