Ayten is just the person to show how being eco
friendly can also be sexy and perfectly stylish.
Following her collaboration in 2009 with
Enamore, Ayten used a mixture of recycled
fabrics to create sets of ethical underwear - the
new range is soon to include a range of eco
friendly underwear. Made from silk produced
cruelty free and organically sourced, the beautiful
and delicate ivory set will be a great addition to
the collection. In addition Ayten is constantly
looking for new ways to utilise sustainable and
vintage sources of fabric and designs in a way
that is both modern and fresh yet retains its
heritage and character. In the near future, the
designer is looking to increase the size of her
eco friendly range, bringing in new colours and
designs, with the pieces set to hopefully become
an established part of her overall design
collection by Spring/Summer 2012.
All the designs can be found online via the
website at
The lingerie is
available in UK sizes 8–14 and bra fittings 32B to
36C. The pieces are offered in vintage inspired
colours including a beautiful dusky pink, pale blue
and the all time classics of black and navy.
Complimentary trims in ivory and burgundy,
among other colours, add a delicate and feminine
touch to even the simplest of pieces. Keeping
things minimal doesn’t have to mean dull or plain.
Found your perfect items? Once you place
your order, the site will aim to dispatch your
items within two working days and your
beautiful new lingerie should be with you in two
to three working days. Not sure whether your
choice will fit perfectly once it arrives? I know
that feeling from personal experience, so the 14
day returns policy is one less thing to be worried
about.
Having initially enjoyed support from the
Prince’s Trust, Ayten continues to support the
British industry through her choices of suppliers
and employees from her studio in London.
Combined with her ethical stance and timeless
designs, Ayten Gasson is definitely a name to
watch out for in the future.With her range now
available in London at Bordello in Great Eastern
Street, as well as online, I will definitely be going.
It’s time that I went shopping for some new
underwear. See you in the queue soon.
