British lingerie designer creates treat for lovers of lace

London based lingerie designer Ayten Gasson continues to utilise the finest lace in her latest range, once again going back to the roots of the British fashion industry to create an amazingly sensual vintage-inspired new collection.

The designer, currently in her 5th year, has launched her Spring Summer 2010 collection using the finest and most delicate trims, many sourced locally from the old lace mills in Nottingham, UK and dating back over 30 years, specifically using Leavers Lace, one of the oldest production technologies.

“Nottingham lace is renowned for its high quality and beauty with Leavers lace being the most exceptional. Sadly with the demand for this lace falling, it is no longer produced in high quantities. This is why I am constantly sourcing vintage lace to create something unique”, Ayten explains.

Shapes for this season include the Ayten Gasson signature Skirted Knicker and Kimono, along with soft bralets; full length slips, vintage inspired teddies and a classic underwire bra. Matching pasties, eyemasks and cuffs are made to complete each range. Colours include Crimson, Azure, Antique White and Black, trimmed with Latte, Misty Rose and Ivory.

All pieces from the collection are made in-house by the designer and her small team using traditional sewing methods, assuring each piece is made with loving care and is of the highest quality.

The current collection is available from some of the most exclusive boutiques in the world such as Bordello in London, Oh Baby in America, and Boudoir Intimates in Australia as well as Topshop’s flagship store in London.
