I don’t know about the rest of you ladies but I find there’s a significant lack of fuller figured lingerie available in many of the boutiques and across the high street; especially when it comes to complimenting our curves for special occasions in something that’s just as pretty as the smaller ranges.
Don’t fret! I’m not about to climb aboard my soap box and rant over how hard-done-by us plus size girls are when it comes to sassy yet classy underwear choices, but having owned and managed two separate bridal suites (one being specifically dedicated to curvy brides) it wasn’t a huge secret that larger fitting lingerie options were in short supply yet big demand…
Hopefully all that’s beginning to change, as today I bring you tidings of joy *yippee* Whilst recently browsing through my copy of Attire, I noticed that Moonrise Lingerie have launched a fabulous new bra set that gives brides with bigger busts the option to indulge in quality bridal underwear that promises both luxury and support… yes, it raised an eyebrow with me too!
The Harmony set from Moonrise Lingerie is available in sizes 36DD-40H and is claiming to offer fabulous support as well as an excellent fit; and if that wasn’t enough to tempt your fashion taste buds, the beautiful soft Boselli satin under-wired cups are elegantly finished with decorative floral lace and a detailed bow that perfectly compliments the matching brief and thongs. Shockingly (unlike some other lingerie options) this little beauty is made right here in good old Blighty. You like? Me too!
Luckily for us, Moonrise has already put ‘The Harmony’ through its paces, having been tried and tested by other plus size women including the beautiful Elena Raouna, Moonrises very own plus size model. What a charmingly cheeky lady, don’t you agree girls? *ahh-hemm*
As the sumptuous materials have been hand-picked from a supplier right here in the UK, you’re assured home grown quality that’s been crafted for curves right on your British back doorstep. If you like what you see why not pop over to their website and browse the beautiful underwear sets on offer? You can also chat online if you have any questions, I happened to make a quick visit yesterday and was speaking with the lovely Tanya (Hi T *waves eagerly*)
What do you think ladies? Whatever your shape or size do say hi & let us know your shopping habits, top tips or grumbles when it comes to purchasing special occasion underwear! As always, I love reading your feedback and thoughts in the comments below…

These photos are stunning! I love it when companies make it their mission to meet a demand that no one else is meeting. It makes so much sense and they are then guaranteed to succeed. There are so many areas where the fashion industry, as a whole, falls flat in terms of not meeting the demands of all shapes and sizes.

I totally agree Nadine, and it’s not just plus size – it’s often across the board! Thanks so much for commenting lovely 🙂 Hope you’re having a great day X

It most definitely is! It sometimes seems like they don’t make clothing for human beings these days. 😀 I am, thank you! I hope you are too! x

Super lovely and exciting post! I too love that market needs are finally being met. I personally love the Dove Real Beauty Project here in America (don’t know if it is international, but all the videos are on YouTube). They are really trying to break the “high fashion norm” and promote everyday beauty. If you have not heard of it, definitely check it out!

Fantastic post! I agree with Nadine- the photos are STUNNING! And I second Cyndelbee for the Dove ads being great. That was awhile ago, but it’s so rare an ad campaign like that comes along that it’s super memorable!

Completely agree Laura – it’s so refreshing to see women of all shapes, sizes & age range featuring on advertisements. Reaches a much bigger audience than an airbrushed body that’s an unrealistic representation of so many women. Certainly catches my eye a whole lot more 🙂 X
