Athena Open Suspender Knicker in Black

The Athena Open Suspender Knicker is the most architectural piece in the collection. A high-waisted silhouette in scalloped embroidered tulle, open at the crotch and back, with boning at the sides that holds the shape precisely — and two adjustable silk leg straps that fall from a gold clasp. 

The embroidery is hand-drawn, commissioned exclusively from one of France's oldest embroidery houses, with archives dating to the 1920s. The result is a piece that functions as much as an object as it does as a knicker.

Pairs with the Athena Quarter Cup Bra or Athena Balcony Bra.
