Once confined to the bedroom, these silky pieces have found their place in the light of day. It's turning something traditionally intimate into something worn in the day. I love going back to tailoring; some little shorts with a beautifully cut jacket can give your look a feminine take on tomboy edge.
Delicate cuts styled with a workman’s jacket and trainers can also give this look. Nightwear adds a touch of femininity. Silky sets are beautiful and seductive, adding an elegant touch to something a little rougher around the edges. I usually wear this with trainers or even flip-flops in the summer.
Our cami is perfect paired with a tailored trouser, simple, refined, and effortlessly put-together. It strikes that balance between relaxed and polished.
I am really liking the Prada Cotton tulle slip at the moment. Items like this and the shorts are great with delicate cashmere jumpers wrapped around and or a shirt for layering.
Nighties are perfect for summer, especially from Dôen. They are light, elegant, and endlessly versatile. Add a statement belt and a pair of earrings, a few layering bits here are there, and it’s not just nightwear, it’s a full look. Effortless, elevated, and unexpectedly chic.
A few other pieces that work well from dawn to dusk are: Prada- Tulle midi dress, the most beautiful Isabel Marant - Freda broderie anglaise maxi dress, a simple Prada - triangle-logo dress or Prada lace-trimmed satin midi skirt and of course our The Montagu Silk Lace Dress. They are all soft layers, subtle textures, versatile enough for morning light and evening shadow.

Alex- I’m putting together an outfit for a mid-September cocktail party. Thinking your silk cami and the navy trousers you have styled together on the site with silver low heeled sandals (outdoor). Yes?
As a designer of a silk lingerie collection formerly, I love this story with extra hearts! As a stylist, love the longer slip dress with the brown sandals and baseball cap look with the boys. Also, wanted to add the Carine Gilson Lingerie (https://carinegilson.com) to your lineup of edits.
