Undercover at the Fashion and Textiles Museum

"The FTM’s exciting new exhibition Undercover traces the evolution of underwear from health garment, shape definer to fashion ‘must have’. It explores a number of themes such as boudoir to everyday glamour – ‘Stars and their bras’ looking at celebrity branding; research and innovation’s impact on the types of underwear we wear; and how the changing face of underwear advertising and marketing meshes with social and cultural changes. "


Nikita Sablier are delighted to have been a part of the exhibition last night! You can view a video of the evening including fashion shows with our collection here :

We were also lucky enough to dress some of the performers for the evening :

Miss Khandie Khisses performed a fabulous burlesque routine in our polkadot underbust corset:

Holly Walker performed in our Mary Poppins Corset and Fur Trimmed Corset Coat! (She also had a nipple tassel stuck to her face, we're not entirely sure why.!)


The gorgeous Miss Baby Sol performed in a leopard print Bettie Page Dress and flower corsage :

There were some fantastic dancers in our Freyagushi Military corsets :


And some of the girls from the fashion shows :
(Far left short blue Limb "Coy Carp" flare dress and electric blue petticoat are ours!)



All in all and exhausting but fabulous evening!

We also supplied outfits for a short movie played on the night - will post the video as soon as released!

Miss Kylie Minogue. Herself. In MY boutique!!

What a fabulous day - I had a visit from Kylie Minogue in store today - she was beautiful, down to earth and simply amazing!! I was lost for words for once!!

She bought a black mini top hat by Fabulous Fascinators , a pair of hotpants from our Bettie Page Clothing Collection (well, she IS Kylie Minogue - hotpants would be the obvious purchase!) and Five Satin Eyemasks by Bombay Duck (gifts for friends!)

I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for appearances on stage in the hat or hotpants! I hope she gets "papped" carrying my bag out the shop too!

So exciting!

Yay!
