"Give in to your wanderlust with my black and gold 'Adventuress' collection. Thinking of the endless starry sky over Lee Miller's beloved Egyptian dunes, I combined sparkly gold lining (on the shoulder straps and bindings) with a gorgeous, jet-black fabric. For a mesmerizing effect, I draped my ultra flattering design in a translucent fine mesh which I decorated with elegant sand ripple flocking. The adorable camera pendant at the heart of the bra is a playful reference to Lee Miller's camera, which was her passport to the world. Dare to explore your desires!"
- Marlies Dekkers
The gold colored camera pendant, hand filled with black enamel, is the cherry on top of this collection.
The flocked spiderweb print in gorgeous black-on-black adds the right amount of elegance and texture.
The gold colored pieces engraved with our logo and golden lurex in the straps will make you feel glamorous.
"I’m no good with my hands, though I am good with a screwdriver – taking a camera apart. But sewing on a button? I could scream."
As one of only six accredited female combat photographers, Lee Miller shook up the world of photojournalism with her unforgettable war pictures. But even before that, her beloved camera - a heavy Rolleiflex - was her passport to the world. Lee was still a hugely successful model when she decided to 'enter photography from the back'. Why be in front of the camera when you can be behind it? Soon, the adventuress was taking us along on exhilarating journeys across the globe - from the bustling streets of New York to the ancient pyramids of Egypt - catching what she called 'flashes of poetry' through her viewfinder.
As poetic as Lee may have been, she was also very practical. She simply loved the technique behind the art. Forever taking her cameras apart and experimenting in the darkroom, Lee would come up with inventions like the dreamy 'solarization' effect which became the emblematic look of Surrealist photography. Her lover and mentor Man Ray would try to claim the invention as his but stood no chance. "Women war photographers had to fight on two fronts," Lee once wrote, "the bombs, and the men." With her camera as her weapon, Lee could easily win from both.
What's not to love about this gorgeous black The Adventuress collection with a touch of gold. This lingerie style has a unique print: a black-on-black spiderweb flock print on a sheer mesh fabric. The flock print is created by pressing a pattern in glue onto the black mesh. Next, a fabric with tiny 'hairs' is pressed onto the same mesh fabric. During this process, the hairs stick to the glue pattern et voilá: the print is created! The finishing touch of this collection is the little bow and gold-colored camera pendant, hand-filled with emaille, at the heart of the bras. It's a playful reference to Lee Miller's camera, her passport to the world. Let it be yours, too!
