Ebonique Black Satin Skirt with Pockets
$ 99
IMPORTANT: This item is on “clearance” and all sales are final.
At Vanyanís, we believe that elegance goes hand in hand with comfort and utility. This is why our decadent satin skirt has two generously deep hidden pockets – freeing you of the need for a clutch should you choose.
The skirt is cleverly cut to accentuate your waist and hips, without adding ‘bulk’ at the front. The luxurious satin is gathered at the back and sides, joining the flat front. The hemline is generous and you instantly want to swish about when you wear it. Why not wear a petticoat underneath for a vintage feel?
This skirt is the height of luxury and we’ve loved bringing a couture feel to this garment. The skirt is fully lined in cupro (a hypoallergenic, anti-static fabric made from the silky fibers of the cotton plant) which feels incredibly soft against your skin.
Christian Dior once said “You can wear black at any time. You can wear it at any age. You may wear it for almost any occasion.” We couldn’t agree more.

At Vanyanís, we believe in slow fashion – high quality, versatile pieces made to last – not fast fads to be discarded in a few months. Rather than a passing trend, we focus on fashion as an investment; a Vanyanís wardrobe is a collection of timeless favourites made with quality and ethics at the fore, because we pride ourselves on paying a living wage.
Designed in the Yarra Valley, Australia.
Made in Bangkok, Thailand.

Nadja Black Mesh Corset
Ready to Wear, CorsetsThe Nadja mesh underbust corset is an exquisite example of what's possible when you combine luxurious fabrics, textured embellishments and stunning craftsmanship. Made with a strong black corsetry mesh overlaid with a delicate leavers lace, this corset feels light to wear but is strong enough to withstand tight lacing so you can show off your curves. The corset is semi-sheer so incredibly easy to style over your favourite clothes (or wear as lingerie if you prefer...)
As with all Vanyanís corsets, the Nadja corsets features a sleek silhouette and a smooth wrinkle free finish on the fabric. The steel bones are encased in external bone channels, evenly spaced around the corset so that when worn, it feels like a comfortable (but firm) hug. The bone casings, binding and front and back panels feature a luscious black satin fabric (the same used in our Ebonique Skirts) that is backed by a European cotton coutil for added strength.
The front and back panels of this curvy corset feature an embroidered lace with tiny black sequins woven through it. (Please note: We decorated the corsets for the photoshoot with some Swarovski crystals on the mesh panels. These crystals are not included on the product.)
The Nadja corset is made with the best materials we could find (a German steel black busk, velvet lining and the most luxurious satin ribbon lacing). (For those that love details, check out the ‘Corset Details’ tab below for all specifications on this corset.)
Only 30 corsets are available, split across an extended size range (18"-44"), and we won't be re-stocking. We're thrilled with how perfectly this limited edition corset has turned out. Nadja has been a labour of love, and we hope you love this new design as much as we do. This corset is currently listed as a "clearance" item in our sale. Save 50% on this corset with code "baby2".
Lillian Underbust Corset
Ready to Wear, CorsetsThe Lillian Underbust Corset is a luxurious, limited edition design from our first ready-to-wear corset collection. Featuring exquisite black lace that has been carefully cut and sewn to best accentuate your curves. The lace is laid over a gorgeous grey satin and the corset is bound with a decadent silk duchess binding and laces up with a soft satin ribbon.
One of the trademark features of a Vanyanís corset is the sleek silhouette and smooth, wrinkle-free finish on the fabric. The Lillian Corset is made with the best materials we could find (including a European coutil strength layer, German steel black busk and the most luxurious satin ribbon lacing). It has 30 spiral and flat steel bones, but still feels 'light' to wear as the quality fabrics provide strength and support without being bulky. (For those that love details, check out the ‘Corset Details’ tab below for all specifications on this corset.)
The Lillian Corset is cut straight under your bust and features a high back for a smooth silhouette. The corset comes with a structured modesty panel that is easily removable without having to unlace the corset (we used snaps!). Each corset comes in a beautiful branded box, perfect for gifting to yourself or a loved one. Click here to view a video showcasing the details.
The level of care and attention-to-detail that has gone into this making collection has resulted in an exceptional corset that will make you feel incredible.
