Fabulous Fenwick Fashion Show

This week saw Get Waisted www.getwaisted.co.ukin a flurry of fashion activity, with a collection of our dresses being put through their catwalk paces at Brighton College's Fenwick House Fashion Show. The kids did themselves proud with their fabulous attitude, professional approach and striking good strutts!

Rocking the catwalk aside, this brilliant event raised a fantastic £1500 for charity, with proceeds shared between Chestnut Tree House and B-Eat. So lets get started with a run down of the night...

Short, sweet and embellished, we start with a couple of crackers. A gorgeous little black dress in beautiful silk velvet with sumptuous feather trim to neck and hem, alongside a cross shoulder, silver duchess, silk satin dress, embellished with organza roses.


Next up is this beautiful full length red carpet gown, in red crepe silk, which can be worn strapless or as halter neck as shown, followed by a trio of glammed up girls with three corset based looks. In the centre, a black duchess satin, body con dress, with chiffon inlaid panel to the front. On the right, a one shoulder red corset, embellished with black organza silk trim, and on the left, a stunning black and white corset dress with large bow detail at the back.


Two more short and simple dresses here. First a stunning black duchess satin dress, with bright purple dupion silk sash, and detachable sleeve. Then this striking, electric blue, strapless dress in luxurious dupion silk.


We took a lot of orders the night and would just like to say a huge thanks and congratulations to everyone involved. Can't wait for next years event! Now back to the catwalk........

Spring is Sprung

Right now at Get Waisted, we are all about celebrating the joyful colours of spring. Across the spectrum of the rainbow, from delicate pastels to vibrant neons, everyone needs a bit of colour in their life.


Mary Kantrazous beautifully coloured, graphic prints with a 'sculpted' structure were a breath of fresh air on the catwalks at the recent London Fashion Week. Her bursts of colour have been an inspiration for some of the most style conscious celebrities, such as Alexa Chung and Keira Knightly.


At Get Waisted we've taken this colour palette to heart and are having a blast designing new items in the spirit of spring. Our striking, tribal print, strapless dress delivers lightness, brightness and shape while our waist defining corset belts add a flash of vivid colour and classic feminine style.  


And, with Mothers Day just around the corner, what would make a better gift for the Mum who has everything than a bespoke Get Waisted garment? 

Stand out from the crowd this season, with a spring in your step. Don't delay, place your order today!
