About Us

Hot Knickers Lingerie is the creation of Irish based designer Ali Wheeler. Each garment is designed and hand made by Ali in her atelier in Spillers Lane, Clonakilty, Ireland.

Before starting Hot Knickers Lingerie, Ali studied fashion in the 1980’s later going on to have a career in cosmetics in London, England. She moved to Ireland, taking time to raise her son and became a partner in a fancy dress business for many years, leaving to pursue bespoke costume design. All of these experiences culminating in the creation of Hot Knickers Lingerie in 2017.

“If a woman feels good in her lingerie she will project this in everything she does”

Hot Knickers Lingerie is designed for real women. Giving them freedom of movement, comfort and glamour, the modern woman now has confidence to dress in whatever she chooses.

The brand takes inspiration from the timeless glamour of the 1940’s and 50’s but with the support and comfort of modern day fabrics. Features the Paula and Jean Hot Knickers, Ava and Charlie Camisoles, Liz slips and vests and the Bravo! bralette.

Each client can avail of a luxury bespoke service, because not all women are standard sizes.

All of the fabrics used are ethically sourced from either Italy, Germany or Ireland. Our satin, mesh and power mesh fabrics fit naturally to your figure without cutting into you creating unsightly lumps and bumps like other lingerie. Each fabric is lightweight and breathable whilst providing enough support.

Bespoke pieces using different fabrics can be made, such as our Heavenly silk slip.
