Guides
Short notes on fit and fabric. We are not a warehouse and we are not a fitting room — these are the questions we get asked anyway.
Fit
Band, gore, straps — the short version, then we send you to ThirdLove.
Compare
One is a layer. One is the look. Both can be silk.
Compare
What to put under a slip, a column dress, or nothing but lace.
How to
Buy the pair, or mix a bralette you already own.
Compare
A slip is a layer: bias-cut, often longer, meant to sit under a dress so fabric falls clean. A chemise is the garment — shorter, finished at the straps, worn as the evening piece. If you can see it at dinner, it is a chemise. If it is doing work under wool or silk, it is a slip.
Compare
Under a column dress, a high-waist brief is usually enough. Under a slip, choose a shaping slip so you are not stacking waistbands. Under lace, skip heavy compression — a soft sculpt bodysuit keeps the line without fighting the fabric. Shapewear should disappear. If you can see the edge, go longer or go lighter.
How to
Buy the pair when the lace is the point — Savage X Fenty, Honey Birdette, Bluebella. Mix when the bra is about fit and the brief is about coverage: ThirdLove on top, Spanx or SKIMS below. Matching is not a rule. It is a look.
