Marlies|Dekkers

Marlies Dekkers, the Dutch underwear artist, wants to use your body as her canvas. Marlies, who shuns the lingerie tradition of lace, ribbon and frill, conceives bold, graphic conceptual looks using strap lattices and unusual cut-outs to create lingerie for the contemporary woman. Governed by the holy trinity of design, fit and quality, the work of Marlies Dekkers is like a piece of art you wear either under your clothing or as a part of your outfit. In the marlies|dekkers store in the 9 streets you will find innovative lingerie designs. The store gets its inspiration from Sleeping Beauty, the classic fairytale about a princess who pricks her finger on a spinning wheel and sleeps for 100 years. Only a prince’s kiss can wake her up…
