A high neck bra and full cut brief, showcasing a custom printed tulle that details tentacle motifs in a flocked finish. The bra is crafted with a silk satin cradle and tulle wings, with a single satin bow at the gore for embellishment. It fastens with a halterneck. The coordinating briefs feature a centre front panel and seat in silk satin, with the front embellished with a central motif of beaded lace.
Videnoir specialises in gothic and horror aesthetics, and is renowned for its intricate custom prints on illusion tulle. Popular motifs include blood drips, bats and spiderwebs. The brand was founded in 2013 by married couple Alis & Michael. Alis had been sewing since a young age, having learned her first skills in corsetmaking from her grandmother and great-grandmother, before formally studying lingerie patterning and sewing. She worked as a tailor in theatres before founding the brand. Michael’s expertise in illustration and graphic design is behind the label’s custom fabrics. All of Videnoir’s designs are hand made in house, with most styles made to order. There is such high demand for the brand’s products, that their online store regularly has to close for orders within a matter of hours of opening.
