Built, not just sewn.
Why stainless.
Four of our five styles are built on stainless-steel underwire. We chose stainless for one reason: it doesn’t rust. Vervain is the exception — it pulls on, with no cups and no wire.
Closures, by style.
Hellebore has a back zip and a hook-and-eye. Tansy and Nightshade fasten with a 4 cm snap gusset. Primrose has shaped cups with underwire. Vervain pulls on and fastens with two snaps at the gusset.
True to size.
Every style is cut and measured against its own size chart. As a guide, S is UK 6–8, M is UK 8–10 and L is UK 10–12 — but check the chart on the product page, and if you sit between sizes, take the larger.
Cared for, simply.
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle/delicate cycle. Use a lingerie wash bag. Do not bleach. Do not tumble dry. Do not iron. Do not dry clean.
Finding your size
Every style is graded to its own measurements — check the chart for the style you want, not just your usual size. Two things to know before you choose:
1 · How to measure
Measure over light clothing, tape parallel to the floor, snug but never tight. If you’re between sizes, take the larger.
2 · Stretch, by style
Hellebore has stainless-steel underwire with plastic boning through the vertical panels, so it has the least give of the five. Nightshade’s mesh has the lowest elastane content; Vervain has the highest, and no wire at all. Primrose and Tansy sit between the two. Follow the charts closely on the wired styles.
