Upcoming Special Events:

Shop for a Cause – Stepping Stone Charlottesville

Join us on April 13th or 14th, 2024 as we collect new or gently used books, and donate 10% of sales, to support Stepping Stone Charlottesville – an organization working to provide families in our community with all of the stuff that comes with having babies and small children – but might otherwise be unable to afford this gear. They provide everything from diapers to carseats – and considerable items in between – and believe in the dignity conferred by providing our vulnerable neighbors with quality items to rear their children with.

We’re making a cash donation to allow them to fill in any item gaps in their inventory, and hoping to spoil them with an influx of books to pack with their orders. More about their work and how to donate directly, if you feel called, here.

Private Events

We are happy to host private events for Girls Nights, Bachelorette Parties, and/or provide off-site educational seminars for women’s organizations. Because each event is unique, please reach out to us by phone: 434-977-7455, or by email info@silkybottom.com, and someone will be happy to assist you.

If you are interested in having us come to you to speak to a women’s organization, sorority, or other group – please email our team at info@silkybottom.com – and our team will be happy to direct you to the appropriate contact.

Past Special Events:

Bra Drive: Benefitting The Haven

We are tremendously excited to partner with The Haven to support their work in our community, and to keep the impact of your donated items super-local.

From March 12-24, 2024, Derriere de Soie will accept donations of clean, gently used bras to be given out to The Haven’s guests in need of bras. As a thank you – we’re offering 20% off your same-day, in-store purchase. This offer doesn’t stack with rewards redemptions or additional discounts, but does apply to permanently marked down items.

We are requiring that bras to be donated are in good used condition – if you have items that have passed beyond their usefulness – we will provide you with textile recycling information. Some examples of things we cannot accept as donations:

  • swimwear of any kind
  • items that are torn, stained, or frayed
  • items with broken fasteners or wires
  • shapers or one-piece bodysuits

For an additional savings opportunity, bring in a new, packaged mens or womens multi-pack of underwear – and receive a savings pass for 20% off one purchase from June 1-8, 2024.

Undergarments carry dignity – and we’d like to share some support with our neighbors depending on The Haven for resources and services.

Sports Bra Fittings with Clay Fitness January 27th, 2024

We are always up for a fun collaboration – especially when it promotes our view that your body is the least interesting thing about you. We want to meet you where you are – and help you feel the best in the body you have, and the folks at Clay Fitness want to help you train for the lifestyle and independence you want, more than striving for smaller numbers on the scale. They firmly believe that healthy habits can exist at any size, and that if you’re looking for an encouraging, safe, science-backed gym, they’d love to have you. Classes are available for all ages and ability levels – and they hope that working out with them will help you live the lifestyle you want, no matter your age.

Book a fitting appointment directly here. Your sports bra purchase will be 15% off, and each purchase enters you to win the following amazing package:

  • 2 free classes as a raffle prize, with an hour-long 1-on-1 movement screen with Eve as well!
  • A mini boudoir photo shoot with body-neutral and affirming photographer Audra Jones – view her work here – if you’ve never done a boudoir shoot before, prepare yourself: it’s life changing, and this shoot includes:

      • professional hair & makeup
