"Celebrate your divine femininity in my beguiling 'Illusionist' collection. In a streamlined play of reveal and conceal, I created an alluring pattern of lines in opulent legion blue jacquard, inspired by the sensual, layered illustrations of Hildegard von Bingen's ecstatic visions. To give you plenty of choice, I executed it in two versions: with or without a matching bra base. The collection also features high-waist bottoms and a gorgeous bodystocking. Wrap your curves in these splendid, elegant designs and reveal your excellent taste!"

Could the Divine be a woman? Hildegard von Bingen certainly believed so! In her visions, she saw the divine as blissfully female: "She is so bright and glorious that you cannot look at her face or her garments for the splendor with which she shines." (She often described this luminous creature as radiant sapphire-blue). The ballsy nun wasn't afraid to share this vision through her teachings, books and music: "The highest blessing in all of creation lies in the form of a woman." Another great example of Hildegard's proto-feminist ideas: in defiance of church belief at the time, the medieval nun boldly proclaimed that menstruation does not make a woman unclean, but the shedding of blood in war certainly does render a soldier unclean. In 1150, she also wrote the Western World's first known description of a female orgasm, mentioning 'sensual delights', and 'contracting organs'. Luckily for Hildegard (and us!), she was neither understood nor taken seriously by the patriarchy, thereby avoiding getting burned at the stake for blasphemy. Perhaps the visionary nun was simply too far ahead of her time.
"O woman, what a splendid being you are! For you have set your fountain in the sun and have conquered the world.”
- Hildegard von Bingen
The Illusionist collection features fine, transparent mesh with a pattern of graphic lines in a gorgeous petrol color. The streamlined play of reveal and conceal, created by the graphic lines, gives this collection an enticing look. What to cover, and what to show? The lush mesh enhances a "top" feel rather than a "bra" feel. The bralette is the star of this collection. This ultra-soft bra has no padded cups and no wires underneath or inside, resulting in the most comfortable bra of all time. But for those in need of more support, we have developed The Illusionist bras with a firm base in bra sizes underneath to rock the bralette-look on their terms. The best of both worlds!
