The Dress That Changed Everything: @scarlettluxe on Vintage Style and Self-Perception
A reflection on confidence, chronic illness and the vintage-inspired pieces that make her feel most at home in her body
By: The Lace Ledger Staff
Finding your personal style doesn’t happen all at once.
It begins with a spark. A beloved character. A lipstick shade. A silhouette that feels different. A moment where something clicks, even if you can’t quite explain why. From there, it unfolds slowly. Through trial and error. Through pieces that almost work, then don’t. Bad haircuts. Failed experiments. Through the gradual realization that style is less about arriving at a look and more about recognizing a feeling.
Below, one of our favourite working pinup models, Scarlett Luxe, offers a rare look into her experience of finding a personal style that feels entirely her own. From early fascination to the moment a single dress changed how she saw herself, her story moves through experimentation, confidence and the gradual shift toward dressing for her own gaze.
Along the way, she offers both perspective and practical insight, mapping a path that feels as personal as it does possible.
Designed for the Divine: National Lingerie Day, Properly Observed
13 female-founded labels creating lingerie for the divine feminine
By: The Lace Ledger Staff
The divine feminine appears the moment instinct is no longer edited. She is intuitive, complicated, occasionally feral and entirely uninterested in being polite for the sake of someone else’s comfort. Lingerie designed for her does not attempt to smooth the edges, it celebrates the body exactly as it exists. Every curve. Every dimple. Even the sharp edge of your attitude.
In honour of National Lingerie Day, we gathered 13 labels founded by women who understand this philosophy intimately. These designers create pieces that treat lingerie as expression.
If your lingerie drawer has been feeling uninspired, the below designers have suggestions. Consider this your lingerie drawer upgrade.
