The manufacture of Double A Paris lingerie
Whether we have small or large breasts, we all have a set of lingerie in our wardrobe: it's an essential . However, the manufacture of lingerie is technical and requires real know-how. We take you to Portugal to the workshop where our sets are made to show you all the secrets of this creation.
Unique expertise
Being very technical to manufacture, lingerie requires unique know-how and specific machines that only certain workshops have. The slightest flaw is immediately visible so everything must be impeccable ! The most beautiful quality lingerie comes from factories and workshops specializing in this field. Cutting, assembly, finishing are all steps that require dexterity and human control.
We have therefore selected our workshop carefully. The latter is located in the city of Porto, Portugal. It is a manufacturing company specializing in luxury lingerie , sleepwear and swimwear with over 20 years of experience. 50 seamstresses work there, some of them since the creation of the workshop. Here, you will not find any t-shirt or knitwear, we have chosen this workshop specializing in the making of lingerie for its traditional know-how which allows us to offer you high quality underwear.
We also work hand in hand with our workshop to carefully select the fabrics and materials for our lingerie. Thanks to their extensive experience, they can plan, advise and source all types of materials and accessories according to our projects and specifications. They can source fabrics, lace and trimmings as well as develop labels and packaging. We therefore work today with OEKO-TEX® certified lace made in Italy and with OEKO-TEX® certified recycled tulle made in Spain. This certification allows us to offer you lingerie with quality fabrics that are harmless to your health and the environment.
The stages of manufacturing lingerie
The steps to achieve the final result are long and require several months of work. We count 7 to make a lingerie set:
1. Development of technical drawings
The manufacture of lingerie begins with the technical drawing of the model we want. It is produced by a stylist and contains several pages with computer drawings and explanations to clarify our specific needs at the workshop.
2. Sourcing of raw materials
It is then necessary to find the fabrics and accessories necessary to make the model. We need to compare and select quality materials before continuing the process.
3. Treatment of patronage
Our workshop then uses modeling software to draw very precise patterns to bring our ideas and technical drawings to life. We then work directly with the workshop pattern maker who helps us with details and technical solutions to create the perfect fit.
4. Prototype manufacturing
The pattern maker then works alongside experienced seamstresses to develop technically viable, production-ready lingerie designs. For our part, we receive these prototypes and must validate them before moving on to the next step. Since we offer the AA cup , smaller than the A cup and very little known, we needed several versions of prototypes before finding the perfect fitting.
5. Gradation of sizes
Once prototypes are validated in one size, patterns are precisely sized to our measurement specifications, using industry standard grading rules and adjusting to fit all sizes.
6. Production of the collection
It then takes the team of seamstresses a week to make all the pieces in our collection. First of all, the fabric is cut using the pattern made earlier. Then the different pieces are sewn and assembled. Once this assembly is complete, the models are all labeled so that they are not mixed up later.
7. Quality control
Our workshop takes particular care to ensure that all parts are produced to high quality standards. For this, quality checks are carried out throughout the production process such as pre-production, initial production, in-process production and final inspection. These quality reports are an integral part of their internal process, and allow us to receive orders on time and to our specifications.
