Washing lace by hand so it lasts longer
Not every label is made equal. We looked at five makers whose lingerie we trust, from soft everyday basics to bridal lace. Each one cuts well, uses good fabric and sews neatly.
Below is our short guide, counting down from five to one. Use it as a starting point when you shop, and bring your questions to the fitters at our Sandton shop. We would love to help you find a piece you will actually wear.
5. Silk Bloom: Soft Everyday Lace
Silk Bloom makes soft, easy bras for every day. The lace is light and the straps do not slip. Many of our customers choose Silk Bloom when they want comfort first and a pretty finish second.
A bra should be forgotten the moment you put it on. That is the test we use for every label we stock.
The sizing runs true, so you can order your usual band and cup. If you are unsure, we can check your fit in store.
Silk Bloom was started by a small team that wanted lingerie to feel gentle on the skin. They choose soft, breathable fabric, keep seams flat and finish each piece by hand. Their sets suit warm days in Johannesburg and cooler evenings alike, and they wash well when cared for properly.
4. Noir Petal Evening Lace
Noir Petal is for evenings out. Think deep colours, bold lace and straps that frame the shoulders. The cut is close and the finish is neat, so the pieces sit well under fitted dresses.
Sizes run from 32 to 40 in the band, with cups from B to F. If you need a hand choosing, ask our fitters in Sandton. We take our time with every customer.
Good lingerie should feel like a second skin. Noir Petal pieces are cut to move with you, from the office in the morning to dinner in the evening.

3. Velvet Hour Sleepwear
Velvet Hour is all about slow evenings. Their sleepwear is soft, loose and easy to wear, with fabrics that stay cool on humid Highveld nights. Slip into a satin chemise or a brushed lounge set and the day falls away.
The colours are muted and warm, and the cuts are generous without being shapeless.
Most pieces go through the wash well on a gentle cycle. We suggest a mesh bag and cool water, then line dry in the shade. Pop in to feel the fabrics for yourself.

2. Rosewater Atelier: the Bridal Lace Makers
Rosewater Atelier is our choice for brides. Their lace is fine, light and soft, and the cuts sit smoothly under satin and crepe gowns. Choose ivory or pearl white for a gentle finish, and book a fitting with us early so the set is ready well before the big wedding day.

Pair your set with a simple robe or slip for getting ready on the morning. It keeps you comfortable and makes the photographs look relaxed and natural. Ask us about low backs.
