Between Worlds

The New Collection — Vivi Leigh London

Between Worlds is not a new collection in the way that phrase is usually meant. Nothing has been torn down and rebuilt. Instead: deepened. Evolved. The fabrics, the palette, the proportions — they carry. Because what was started three years ago was never meant to be finished in a single drop.

The Living Wardrobe

When the first collection launched, it was a test. Most of it worked.

From that moment the idea was fixed: don't start over. Build on.

A woman can buy a bralette today and come back a year from now and find briefs that still work with it. The same silk, the same cut, the same logic. What she started is never obsolete — unless she decides it is. Some pieces in this collection are new. Some are evolved — reworked in construction or updated in cut. A few things were let go. But the palette remains, the fabrics remain, the sensibility remains. A set begun in the first collection can be completed, or extended, or reimagined in this one.

This is not how lingerie is usually made. It is how a wardrobe should be.

Two Movements, One Collection

The visual language of Between Worlds moves between two distinct art historical moments — and the tension between them is the point.

Art Nouveau is the softer world. Organic form, flowing line, the female body understood as something that moves like water, like vines, like silk. Alphonse Mucha's women. The curved ironwork of a Paris staircase. The idea that beauty is not applied to things but inherent in them. This is where the silk jersey pieces live — the new bra shapes, the pieces designed to feel like a second skin, to move with the body rather than hold it in place.

Art Deco is the sharper world. Geometry, repetition, metal, structure. The Chrysler Building. A Lalique bottle. The way a body looks against clean right angles. This is where the architectural elements enter — the motifs, the hardware, the pieces designed to be seen as much as felt.

Between Worlds holds both. The soft and the structured. The organic and the geometric. That is the conversation the collection is having with itself — and with the woman wearing it.

The Pieces

The heart of this drop is in silk jersey — new bra shapes with Art Nouveau and Art Deco-inspired motifs worked into the construction itself. Not printed on. Not applied. Built in.

The centrepiece is the Demi Bralette — non-wired, double-layered pure silk jersey, handmade in Britain. From the front it reads as effortless: a clean rounded cup, silk satin straps, special motif gold hardware. Turn it around and the story changes. The architectural back strap detail is deliberate, considered, and entirely signature — because backs deserve as much attention as fronts, and a hook should never just be a hook.

This is the bralette its designer wears every day. Because nothing else comes close.

The supporting act is just as considered. Some pieces are about what they reveal. The High Waist Suspender is about what it does to a silhouette. Sheer mesh up close to a satin waistband that sits at the natural waist — unmistakably 50s in its emphasis, entirely now in its execution. A single contrasting black strap runs through the centre. Everything else is soft. That one detail is not. New brief and thong shapes completes the picture — designed, as everything here is, to work with what you already own as much as what you are buying today.

Each piece is designed to be worn as a set — or not. Mixed with what came before, or with what comes next. Layered or alone. The collection is a system, not a moment.

And coming soon — the Art Deco piece. More on that when the time is right.

Between Worlds

Something shifted. In culture, in fashion, in the way women talk about their bodies and what they put on them. Less patience for lingerie that performs femininity without understanding it.

This collection is the answer to that.

Intimate and architectural. Soft and structured. Designed to be built on, returned to, extended. Not a statement and then silence — an ongoing conversation between a woman and what she chooses to put on her body.

Between worlds. That is where the most interesting things happen.
