The ordering was easy and painless. The shipping far faster than expected. But what was bought far exceeded expectations even today over a year and a half later. The owner always marvels at how long t... See more

Awesome customer service
I have just received my replacement Celia garter belt and it is perfect (the first one had defective garter clips). The customer service was really awesome and I am very satisfied with the way they addressed the issue. I highly recommend this company. Thank you very much!
Fabulous in every way.
The bra I bought arrived quickly and was utterly beautiful. I had to exchange it for a slightly different size, which was simple and stress-free, and the replacement arrived a couple of days later. Great customer service.
Restock please!
I love the items I've purchased, and the glamorous 1950s silhouette they give my body. I'd give WKD a 5 star rating if only they'd hurry up and restock some of the other items I've been eyeballing!
Pull on Suspenders
I’ve recently bought a pull on suspender belt .
It arrived super quick and it fits beautifully.
I’d certainly by. It again x love Sheila
I am very glad about my purchase
I am very glad about my purchase. The skirt is a great basic that every style icon should own. The bonus is the fair fabric, in India. The pull over is also a good basic. High quality item. The dolman sleeves give the perfect pin-up style. The parcel comes in a nicely wrapped paper, as a gift from a passionate owner. I definitively adore that small business.
Hollywood Glamour!!
I absolutely love my 1930s Lounging Robe in Peach! I needed something a little special and Wow! I feel like a Hollywood Movie Star. I am a bit chunky and was worried about my shape in such a light color, but the cut and fabric make me look and feel fantastic! Thank you so much!
Beautiful top quality products
Beautiful quality products. A wonderful British Brand and family business who apply passion, imagination and care in every garment. I love Katie's dresses, petticoats, corsets and stockings, as does my husband!
Always a pleasure to visit the stand at Goodwood Revival every year and I have been a loyal customer for many years now.

Completely satisfied
The underwear was exactly as depicted in the ad. The colors are beautiful and the fit was perfect. The garters are not the cheap version like other brands. Delivery was on time. I definitely will be ordering more items in the future.
Easy to order and fast shipping
Easy to order and fast shipping! I got what I wanted and am very happy with my purchase Thank you!
What Katie did 5 Stars, Parcel Force 0 Stars
What Katie did (5 stars) but let down by parcel force chosen delivery company (0 stars) who when delivering the signed for parcel forged my signature and left it on the front door step as we were out, luckily I phoned a neighbour to take it in, suggest you change your courier provider.

I love What Katie Did
I love What Katie Did! Their products are always top notch in design and materials. What's better is that the pieces really hold up for day to day wear and yet still look fantastic. I've been buying from them for years and always come back for more. Their customer service is always great too. Knowledgeable and friendly. They actually know about the products they sell. I recommend them to everyone looking for vintage style underpinnings and stockings.

Best small business ever
I have ordered a few times with WKD. It's obviously a small, lovingly run company with passionate folks putting their life and soul into what they do because I've only ever had great experiences. High quality unique product, swift deliveries, top customer service. I always look forward to getting WKD emails in my inbox.

This corset is nice with a couple flaws
This corset is nice, I really like that it has a waist ribbon/band to keep weight distribution happy. It also has nice lined up boning around the front and back especially, and I love the modesty panel being detachable and having boning. However, I wish the peach came with actual cord like the black corset does. The ribbon feels kinda cheap and has the possibility of fraying or pulling threads. I know being able to find peach cord would be really hard, but still, a lot of corset wearers don’t like ribbon lacing so I wish the option was there. Also kinda unhappy with how some of the fabric lays. It appears that some of the inner panels are a bit smaller than the outside panels, making the outside panels lay kinda weird/have a loose look even when put on and stretched. Also the front bunk bent after putting it on once. Maybe we were too rough with it but I’ve worn a lot of corsets and this is my first time having a busk bend. The boning is pretty thin but the overall corset is thick so it’s not too big of a deal. It’s a nice corset and the issues I have are things only experienced corset wearers would notice, but worth noting for such an expensive purchase.
