Hi all,
Its so lovely to hear you all speaking about vintage lingerie so passionately. I completely agree that once you have fallen in love with it there is no going back.
I would just like to bring to your attention Ayten Gasson's lingerie range.…
I guess I meant all that tacking ; like many others if I'm making most other things I pin and sew immediately . However with bras it isn't on which tends to mean repeatedly tacking the same bit until you get it right . I also find some seams which a…

Zoggi , I stand corrected ( v.puzzling phone-in tho') . I haven't been to M&S to buy for about 15 yrs at least ! Do other mass-market brands do this too in the UK ?
Ludovic , do you mean chain stores ?
I still can't recall seeing this with high-end…
M&S have been charging the extra £2 for as long as I can remember, but have just announced that they will be scrapping it. The reason that this is in the news is because of "Busts 4 Justice," a group formed to protest the unfairness of the policy, a…

Hi Rukshana,
We're sorry for the disruption - we think the site was targeted by spamming. Danae is on to the problem and hopefully it will be the end of the issue.
Thank you for making us aware of it.
Best wishes
Alison
