Satin Circle Stitch Bullet Bra in Red or Black

The bullet bra is one of the most quintessential lingerie items of the ‘Golden Years’ – just think of the amazing perky pointed boobs of sex sirens & pin-ups such as Marilyn Monroe, Diana Dors, Jayne Mansfield and Bettie Page who were icons for this 1950s bra.

Originally called the Chansonette bra and made by Maidenform, the spiral stitching method and good sizing made the need for extra padding and underwires unnecessary as these bras fitted perfectly on the majority of women.

You just cannot have a perfect pin-up silhouette without a bullet or cone bra and the Playful Promises Spiral Bullet Bra is an authentic take on this signature 50s style. The bra is available in plain black, or red with black trims and features the classic spiral stitching on soft unmoulded cups.  The Bettie Page range are limited editions and may not be available for long.

Read our Guide to Bullet Bras for an insight into it’s history + how to style and fit one.

    I bought one of these to compliment a recent suspender belt purchase - it fits like a glove, quite literally! Never having worn this 'bullet' style before it takes some getting used to after years of wearing modern underwired ones but I absolutely love it. The shape, the fit and how it looks under clothing - all great.
