We caught up with Zoe Price-Smith, chief design and product officer at lingerie and sleepwear experts Boux Avenue to chat about bridal lingerie and their new sustainable nightwear collection and what's in store for the festive season. She tells us, "Here at Boux Avenue, we are on a journey in becoming a more sustainable brand, and we are starting with our new ethically sourced nightwear collection. We are excited to announce that the Glam nightwear collection called Marnie has had a major upgrade, as the new Maisie. This new nightwear collection is made from recycled polyester fibres (excluding lace trims). Maisie is designed with a glossy satin finish for a luxe feel, in sexy shapes, including a high-cut leg on the shorts. The collection comes in black and ivory, perfect for brides along on-trend colourways. There's even a hot pink shade (hello Barbiecore!) and a powder blue option available. Whether you're looking for your bridal day and night underwear for yourself or your bridesmaids, Maisie is the one!
