Meet the Designer
Lorraine 'Lane' White (BArts/BEdu), designer and founder of Whitelane Textiles. A passionate textile artist, with a love of all things Victorian and the glamour of Pinup, brings her knowledge of textiles and embellishment to your vision of corseted beauty. Whether your vision be a graceful lingerie or a spectacular burlesque costume, Lorraine can create your ideal look.
Developing her skills independently since 2007, through private study, museum collection visits and more recently attending the Royal Welsh Academy of Music and Drama summer course with Jill Salen in 2015, Lorraine has developed considerable skills and knowledge in the field of historic costume and corsetry.

I fell in love with corsetry in 2000 and it have been an enduring love affair.

Company Vision
Launch Collection 2017
Our vision at Whitelane Textiles is to create exquisitely embellished corsetry and accessories for burlesque performers, pinup beauties and the occasional wearer.
Inspired by history, made beautiful by you
With a background in education, Lorraine firmly believes in the transformative power of knowledge, research and preservation of history.
Drawing upon the vast fashion archives of Museum collections, both as a digital and physical source of information, Lorraine interprets historical sources to create the Whitelane design range.
Primarily working from the Victorian era, influences from Edwardian through to the 1950s can be seen in our ever increasing design range.

Reference to history is at the core of our brand and informs all of our practice a design development.
We believe that the history and beauty of corsetry should not forgotten and as such we use historical records and garments as the basis for our designs.
Body Positivity
We believe that the promotion of positive self image and embracing a body positive attitude can be achieved through bespoke corsetry, by encouraging self expression through individualised dress. It is our aim to produce beautifully embellished and tailored corsetry and accessories which are exquisitely finished and are as individual as the wearer.
