Our take

Bluebella is a brand combatting the idea that lingerie should be worn to "please somebody else", with fashion-focused pieces designed to inspire confidence in the wearer, and empower them to use underwear for self-expression, self-love and fun.

Founded in 2005, the brand has continuously evolved its designs with inspiration taken from the modern world and contemporary trends, enabling it to maintain a popular following in the ever-changing fashion space.

Bluebella is also known for partnering with exciting names in fashion and pop culture, such as Munroe Bergdorf and and stars from Ru Paul's Drag Race, as well as for a focus on inclusivity across the brand. It has found its latest muse in singer, songwriter and actress Self Esteem - a strong match for the brand's feminist values and fashion-forward identity.
