Red micro velvet heart-shaped bustier adorned with intricate tea-dyed lace trimming and a grommet lace-up back. Paired with this is a set of red stretch velvet bloomers, elegantly detailed with the exact tea-dyed lace trimming along their ruffled edges. The inception of this captivating look draws from the timeless allure of the heart motif and the refined elegance of vintage lingerie and lacework. Employing a fusion of draping and pattern-making techniques.

One of the core inspirations behind this creation was a beguiling fabric heart ornament that caught my eye during the research phase of the synthesis portion of my thesis. The ornament's intricate details and delicate beauty resonated deeply with me, compelling me to infuse my design with comparable qualities.
