Belle of the Ball

Posted on May 1, 2009 by swizemann

The lovely Belle Pouting sets from Stella McCartney are in – these vintage-inspired beauties have a bit of a 40′s athletic bra vibe to me (in a good way) and I think they will hold up quite well to everyday wear. The color is a bit lighter than it appears in the photo, so it’s more of a dusty, pale mauve than the Lavender Eve Giggling, and consequently more viable as a nude bra.  Like the Louise Dancing bralette, the bows can be moved to the top or back of the straps or cut off entirely.  The matching bikini is infinitely wearable, with a sheer bottom and lined front for a bit more modesty.
