Triumph opens autumn with retro lingerie

Seductive shapes, romantic materials and vintage colours are the key trends as Triumph revives 1950’s lingerie and brings it right up to date with design twists and the latest materials in a collection called “Newstalgia”.

The importance of texture is displayed in extravagant, semi-transparent laces and delicate ribs. Pearls, buttons, bows, ribbon lacing and pretty rouleau and picot trims bring a touch of opulent, old-fashioned charm.

Triumph Amourette Sweet

For example, the Padded décolleté bra and hipster (left) are in Vichy check jacquard and stretch lace in white or pink. In the popular Amourette cut, these styles promise optimum comfort, support and elegance in a wide range of sizes. The bra gives a beautiful neckline and cleavage, and the lace hipster – with no side seams – is particularly comfortable to wear.

Deep, intense petrol blue glows alongside soft vintage shades of pink and brown. Sparkling white and dramatic black are the contrasts.

Underwired bras focus on decorative plunges and straps; briefs look new with high waists and square cut legs. The look is provocative yet elegant, bold yet romantic.

Large bra sizes too
As always, Triumph really spoils the curvy lady, meeting the challenge of offering her elegant, seductive fashion combined with maximum support, perfect fit and optimum comfort, by making subtle design adjustments such as wider straps and strengthening linings in D+ cups. This season there are even more bras in big sizes and cups – all picking up the on-trend nostalgia theme.

At the end of the year, a bright, festive look emerges with shimmering red and black satin. Seductively styled in lace and embroidery with rich patterns, gold-coloured lining and twinkling crystal trims this is Christmas glamour at its best.

We expect to see Triumph’s new collections at Figleaves.com and John lewis.
