Drawers” started to develop in the early 1800s and became widespread in the era of Victorian prudishness but were still not our familiar garments, rather they were separate legs, initially ankle length and attached at the waist, probably more about keeping your legs warm as fabrics became thinner and ensuring your naughty little ankles remained out of sight than anything else. By the 1920s, skirts had shortened to the knee, the body shape to aspire to was boy-like with no curves and fabric had become sheerer so lingerie styles progressed accordingly which is where our ‘French Knickers’ style comes in, alongside Camiknickers which combined the bodice and knickers into one garment. Our Kawaii French Maid Lingerie set skips out on the dress and apron entirely, instead bringing the look to this gorgeous little lingerie set, which is available in either black or white.Isabel comes with a chequered blue and white top with puffy sleeves, mini skirt (it ties at the back to make you feel extra cheeky), silky apron, headband and thong. Over the decades, the waistline has evolved and while I am happy to know that French Knickers are still very much a thing, they now tend to be more of a shape that sits on your hip rather than the high waists that we associate with our Mid-Century period. These resulted in many items being homemade and French Knickers alongside other lingerie would have been knitted, made from other discarded garments, or if you were lucky enough to snag a damaged parachute, then the “parachute silk” (actually a form of nylon) was wonderful for slips, knickers, nighties and indeed your whole honeymoon trousseau! That said, if you do want to be the Belle of the French Maid ball, the combination of raunchy teddy and girlie satin apron is a winner.

Today, these lovely longer length knickers are perfect for vintage photoshoots and fashion events, and for me, there’s nothing nicer to wear under full skirts and dresses, especially for dancing (or in case of a Marilyn moment on a breezy day! The traditional silhouette of long-line bras with French Knickers really does conjure up a 1940s ideal of glamour and sexuality with an over-riding elegance, and there are many “pin-up” images of models and starlets of the day posing in this kind of lingerie, a look that modern-day vintage style pin-up girls also aspire to.

In shiny PVC material with white lace trim, this is another wetlook style that will really kick your French Maid lingerie game up a notch. To me, this conjures up the silky pants that are high-waisted, loose-fitting and with the silhouette of shorts, often with embroidery and a pretty lace trim.

Whilst smaller “panties” started to become popular into the 1950s and 1960s, the French Knicker style still prevailed and I currently have an amazing collection of 1960s nylon knickers from iconic lingerie label “Vanity Fair” in the traditional wide-legged “shorts” style, in eye-popping bright citrus shades. To me, the 1980s became the second heyday of this style of lingerie with glamour models like Samantha Fox bringing our traditional French Knickers into a whole new world of cheeky sexuality, always with a hint of silky, lacy romance and opulence.Wear the full attire, or simply pair the headband, collar and garter with the string bra and thong for an even sexier time.
