MORE INFO …
I have been deliberately enigmatic with the photos in this news piece, because I can’t do justice with just one photo or gallery to the delights you’ll find in store. So I implore you to click this link to find Buttress & Snatch on instagram, and this one to visit the Buttress & Snatch website!
Buttress & Snatch lingerie is sustainable, ethical and hand-made. And it’s absolutely bloody gorgeous. There are those of us who love knickers, and then there are those of us who love people who love knickers, and if you fall into either or both of these categories, then you really shouldn’t miss the chance to snap up extraordinary pieces from the Buttress & Snatch archive.
But what I love most about Buttress & Snatch is that this brand isn’t just eye-catching, it’s also thought-provoking!
The hand-made lingerie might be frilly and frothy, but the ethical reasoning and rationale that underpins the ‘Handmade in Hackney London by Honest Hardworking Girls’ swing-tag is anything but frothy. Rewarding people fairly for their work wherever they live is essential to sustainable and ethical consumerism and the Buttress & Snatch founder is passionate about this subject and committed to driving change in the fashion industry.
So if you can possibly make time to visit the Regent Street Edit before it comes to a close, do!
And even if you don’t think you’re in the market for a new pair of knickers, a tulle or fringed bra, or a show-stopping postman-scarer*, just pop in for an informative chat and the pleasure of visual and intellectual inspiration!
* A postman-scarer is a transparent or semi-transparent slip, nightdress or robe of any colour or length. It instantly transforms the wearer into Anna Magnani, Belle de Jour or Kath from Entertaining Mr Sloane, depending on styling and attitude. No lover of lingerie should be without at least ten of these practical and versatile garments.
