Who we are
The brainchild of Emily Bendell, Bluebella was founded with a simple yet profound vision at its core: to deliver luxurious lingerie, underwear, and nightwear to spirited, fashion-forward women. Our brand champions innovation, inclusivity, and exceptional style above all else, redefining sensuality with every new collection.
The Founder
“To me, lingerie is self-expression of individual style and spirit. The Bluebella woman does not see lingerie as a functional or traditionally sexy purchase to be ‘dressed up in’ for someone else. If the thing we wear closest to our skin is for someone else and not ourselves, what does that tell us about our bodies? I wanted to create a brand and product that was empowered, confident, sassy, contemporary and fashion-focused. We design to make women feel their most fabulous selves!”

INSPIRATION
Our award-winning team takes inspiration from modern lifestyles, fashion trends and the world around us. Each collection we launch has a clear purpose and vision behind it, pushing the boundaries of design with unique fabrics, unusual trims and unforgettable new silhouettes. We are proud to be stocked by some of the UK's and world’s most famous retailers, including Selfridges, Victoria’s Secret, Bloomingdales, Zalando, David Jones and De Bijenkorf.
Take control of the narrative with our new fearless collection, inspired by the sheer spirit of femininity. Ultra-wearable, bold, and innovative, this unique line-up of lingerie and nightwear styles is a sight to behold and delight in.
BLUEBELLA x ashley Williams
Inspired by a shared vision celebrating women’s individuality, we joined forces with one of Britain’s most exciting womenswear designers Ashley Williams to create a collection that seamlessly marries her distinctive style with our commitment to boldness and confidence. This unique collab showcases an array of nightwear, underwear and accessories crafted in fully recycled materials, capturing the attention of fashion enthusiasts and lingerie connoisseurs alike.
PRIDE 2023
Feeling proud means celebrating life, and Bluebella has the lingerie to match it. Modelled by queer singer girli and imbued with her unapologetic spirit, the new Pride collection allows you to show your true colours without a filter.
We’re donating 10% of the profits from the collection to Outright International, supporting their amazing work for LGBTIQ+ communities.
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY
While we never take any time off from celebrating and supporting women, we think International Women’s Day is a great chance to make our commitment to feminism even clearer.
This year, we embraced equity with the support of our incredible community and donated £5 from every order made on the day to Equality Now in support of their work for women and girls.
