Louisa tap pants
This design is made-to-order and takes 1-2 weeks for production.
These black silk tap pants are a delight to wear, whether as sleep shorts or simply for lounging around at home on the weekend. Their inspiration comes from the luxurious lounge wear and lingerie of pre-code Hollywood pictures: glamorous with a touch of sexiness, and most importantly, utterly indulgent!
These high-waisted French knickers feature a base of 100% silk satin and a French lace appliqué over the left leg. They have a peek-a-boo slit detail over the bum, and a back button closure. This style is cut to sit along your natural waist, so if you'd like it to sit lower on the waist, you may choose to size up.
Dry clean only. Made in England. Models wear sizes M, L, and S.
