Patrick & Skinner: The Sweetie Shop Collection
June 30, 2008 by Alison
We’ve always said: shopping for beautiful lingerie is the grown up version of a kid in a sweetie shop; the choice is always overwhelmingly exciting, and, inevitably we never have enough pocket money to buy everything we want!
Our sweetie shop metaphor has now turned into reality; Patrick&Skinner, designer of all things ‘edible’ and gorgeous has come up with a beautiful new collection: The Sweetie Shop!
The Sweetie Shop Collection
With unbelievably gorgeous imagery, Patrick&Skinner’s new collection, ‘The Sweetie Shop‘ has really given us something to drool over. Inspired by the era of classic Hollywood glamour and 1950′s and 60′s ladylike swimwear patterns, this opening assortment is named after traditional British sweeties and is stunningly indulgent. The Custard Cream collection is a pick and mix of vibrantly coloured knickers, soft bras, robes and eye masks, all in different ‘flavours’, and all wonderfully glamorous. With Banana and Custard (right), Apple and Custard (left), and Rhubarb and Custard (below) to choose from, it’s won’t be an easy choice to make – we’re loving all three Sweeties, especially with their custom-made shoes and hair bands to match!

We couldn’t help but show you the whole collection, which is all hand-made to order; the Custard Cream assortment from the Sweetie Shop is all available at Peacock and Strutt from today. As the pieces are made-to-order, they will take around 10 days to deliver, but we’re in no doubt it’ll be worth the wait!
Bras are priced at £170, Briefs at £120 and the robes at £220.
