London label making bondage-inspired luxury lingerie built from 24k gold-plated hardware and adjustable satin elastic strapping.
4 brands like Bordelle like Rabanne, Alexander McQueen, Schiaparelli →

The house method layers adjustable satin elastic straps and 24k gold-plated fittings over lace, mesh and silk, so bondage-referencing harnesses and bodysuits read as outerwear.
Pieces are handmade by teams in London and at the brand's own facility in Cluj, Romania, which explains the price and the consistency of the hardware-heavy construction.
A continuity Signature range stays in stock alongside seasonal mainline collections, so core harnesses, bras and suspender pieces can be replaced or added to over time.
