Confession: white lingerie rarely sells as well as black. Customers often ask for it… but when it comes to actually buying, black usually wins. Which is exactly why our white pull-on suspender belt has just been put on sale. 🤍 www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

While the Peaky Blinders costume department sourced our ultra-authentic CC09 bra, they also chose something a little easier to wear: our Celia 1940s bra. 🧵 www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

The costume department for the new Peaky Blinders film sourced several pieces from us during production; including our most historically accurate bra. 🧵 www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

A quick hosiery heads-up. Our contrast seamed stockings (champagne leg with black seam) are running very low in size S/M. www.whatkatiedid.com/products/co...

A little announcement for long-time What Katie Did customers… The original Liz bras are now half price. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Good news for vintage lingerie lovers: our black Liz Nouveau bras are finally back in stock. Made in our long-standing UK factory from recycled yarn, Liz combines a classic mid-century silhouette with the comfort of a soft cup, wire-free bra. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Babydolls are one of the most playful pieces in vintage lingerie. Floaty, flirtatious, and just a little daring. Our Priscilla babydoll comes in two very different moods… Candy pink or sheer black lace. Which would you choose? www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Someone asked recently if it’s possible to dye one of our bullet bras. The short answer is: yes… but dyeing lingerie is a bit of a gamble. There are usually several different fabrics and trims involved, and each one takes dye differently.

If you love seamed stockings, you’ll know one pair is rarely enough. Our new Stock Up & Save offer lets you enjoy multibuy savings when you choose 1, 2 or 3 pairs of our Glamour seams. You can even mix and match across stockings and tights. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

We were hoping to see Lola Young collect her Best Newcomer award at the Brits wearing What Katie Did… but it wasn’t to be. A few days later she appeared front row at the Vivienne Westwood AW26 show in Paris wearing our 1950s Glamour Bra instead. Not a bad consolation prize. ✨

Our first vending show of the year is nearly here… 🎶🚗 We’ll be at the Rockabilly Rave in Great Yarmouth this April! www.whatkatiedid.com/pages/event...

Our Semi Opaque RHT stockings are back in stock ✨ Perfect for that awkward in-between season — brighter days, but still a definite chill in the air. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

We asked if you find wishlists useful… and the results are in. Turns out we’re gloriously old school 🖤 85.7% of you use them as a way to bookmark beautiful pieces for yourself.

Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man is out this Friday and we are far too excited. There’s nothing like seeing Cillian Murphy on the big screen 🖤 For our Peaky-inspired shoot, we had to get creative…

We’ve just added a wishlist feature to our website, so you can save your favourite pieces and come back to them later (especially helpful with our limited runs).

Our Morticia Underbust Corset has been featured in the 2026 Beauty & Cosmetic Surgery Guide by Tatler and I couldn’t resist smiling at the irony. www.tatler.com/article/int...

A new film set in 1930s Chicago is hitting cinemas on March 6, and the costume department bought black seamed stockings from us a couple of years ago…

Light as candyfloss 🎀✨ Meet the Candy Priscilla babydoll & bloomers: sheer pink georgette, soft ruffles, and a silhouette that floats rather than clings. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Finally — US tariffs have been reduced to 10% 🎉 We’ve already adjusted our prices to reflect the new lower rate, and as always, all duties are included. No surprise fees. No extra bills on delivery. Just beautiful pieces, delivered to your door. www.whatkatiedid.com/

Our black Cuban Heel Fully Fashioned stockings are back in stock. 🖤 Made on original 1950s Reading machines, produced in tiny runs, and usually gone before we can blink… www.whatkatiedid.com/products/cu...

Our latest newsletter launched our pink and red Candy lingerie and we're thrilled that our packing room was a froth of pink and red this morning! Catch up with the news, and subscribe, here: app.spoks.com/whatkatiedi...

Earlier this week, it was all smoky tailoring and sharp silhouettes… Today? We’re trading shadows for spun sugar. 🍬✨ Meet Candy: sweet, playful, and unmistakably vintage. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

We’re proud to share that What Katie Did pieces were sourced by the costume department of Peaky Blinders — throughout the TV series and again for the new feature film, The Immortal Man. 🖤

Alas, there is nothing new about tariffs as I discovered in the research for this week's Substack post: whatkatiediduk.substack.com/p/dior-in-t...

Do you subscribe to our email newsletter. If not, here's the latest one: Peachy Perfection and a new Vivienne Westwood exhibition in London: whatkatiedid.spoks.com/

Less glamorous news… but very useful. I’ve been tinkering with the website 🔧 You’ll now find estimated delivery times on product pages, plus a dedicated tracking page: no more hopping between Royal Mail or FedEx to find your parcel.

Our Harlow set in vintage peach is back in stock 🍑✨ I couldn’t resist revisiting this beautiful shoot from a few years ago: the soft satin, the sculpted 1950s silhouette… pure mid-century glamour. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Stockings are forever, not just for Valentine’s. A beautiful pair of seamed stockings isn’t a once-a-year indulgence. It’s everyday glamour, whenever you choose to wear it. 💋 www.whatkatiedid.com/products/co...

Our classic 1950s Caroline blue floral dress deserves another moment 💙 Made from 100% cotton in our exclusive mid-blue floral print, it’s flattering, timeless and perfect as we edge into spring. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

If you don't subscribe to our newsletter you're missing out. As well as product stories we always include something extra: this time we introduce you to John Willie and his fetish 1940s/50s Bizarre magazine. I do hope you've been practising your jiu jitsu... whatkatiedid.spoks.com/p/a-darker-...

Girdles in the spotlight ✨ With Wuthering Heights landing this week, a familiar silhouette is back in focus: lingerie worn as the look.

Our Stolen Heart lookbook was inspired by Bizarre — an underground fetish magazine published in the 1940s–1950s, firmly in the era we specialise in. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

The Demi Waspie Corset isn’t new — and that’s why it’s a favourite. We’ve been making this stretch underbust waspie for years, and it’s proven itself as one of our most wearable, flattering corset styles. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

I’ve just been working on an email newsletter and discovered I can finally add polls — which means I now get to ask you questions properly.

🧵 Valentine’s Day is on a Saturday this year, which means there’s time. Slow mornings, breakfast in bed, and something lovely (and comfortable) to wear. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Dearest Gentle Reader… With Season 4 of Bridgerton now upon us, we’re casting our minds back to a very special moment behind the scenes of Season 3 🧵✨

We've had a few Corset Top seconds which have been added to our Treasure Trove page. If you're teeny tiny you might be in luck... www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Our Winter Sale was meant to end today… until Charlie uncovered a stash of archive pieces we didn’t even know still existed. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Our Winter Sale is drawing to a close, and a few standout pieces are about to disappear for ever. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Our first new Stolen Heart releases of 2026 have just arrived: long sheer gloves in the softest blush pink and a deep, dramatic claret. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

Our latest newsletter went out last night and talks about Tatler magazine, the Mitford Sisters and our Latte Seamed Stockings. Find out the link between the three here (and maybe subscribe too?): whatkatiedid.spoks.com/

I've just spent a couple of hours uploading the very last of our Treasure Trove Sale pieces: stragglers that were missed or forgotten. These are ex shoot samples from our archives. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

It’s the final week of our Winter Sale and I somehow missed my size in the copper Cynthia bra — my everyday, wear-on-repeat favourite. Lesson learned: don’t wait too long. www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

The elegant point heel (or “French heel”) fully fashioned stocking is often linked to couture glamour — and for good reason. It was famously chosen to accompany Dior-era gowns, helping define the look of the 1950s leg.

The very last pieces of our Archive Sale are going fast. Now's the time to pick up one of our last sample pieces. Plus, if anything really takes your fancy and you'd like to see it back, let us know! www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...

One to save for a quiet moment of appreciation this weekend. If you haven’t seen it, Valentino: The Last Emperor is a beautiful, intimate portrait of the late Valentino Garavani — his work, his world, and his creative life. A fitting tribute to the last true couturier. www.imdb.com/title/tt117...

Today's Substack talks about the lingerie brand Lady Marlene, much loved by Madonna in the early stages of her career. This brand's lingerie might look 1950s, but the same styles were made right up until 2005. whatkatiediduk.substack.com/p/madonna-v...

Thinking about wearing stockings for the first time — or refreshing your suspender collection? A good foundation makes all the difference.

Our stocking storage bags are back 🖤 We’ve just had a small delivery after the Christmas rush — perfect for keeping your hosiery protected, or as a thoughtful Valentine’s gift. One of those little luxuries that makes caring for stockings a pleasure. www.whatkatiedid.com/products/st...

Want to reveal your inner Vamp. We've just added a couple of 2nd Vamp Corsets (26" reduced waist) to our Treasure Trove Sale. How long will they last? TBH I'm surprised they've lasted the afternoon! www.whatkatiedid.com/collections...
