A New Corset

Design Spotlight: Crafting the Perfect Corset

Designing a corset is always a journey—part technical challenge, part creative experiment, and part emotional rollercoaster (with a lot of fabric swatches involved).

What often begins as a simple undergarment quickly suggests a more daring future: a piece that confidently steps into the spotlight, reimagined and restyled in countless ways.

Drafting in the Digital World

To begin with, everything starts in the 3D program.

That’s where the silhouette comes to life—drafted, redrafted, and sometimes questioned with a dramatic, “why is this seam misbehaving?”

With digital draping, multiple versions are explored without using an inch of fabric. The waist gets pinched a little more here, the bust adjusted there. Necklines shift constantly until the structure finally feels just right.

On some days, the digital mannequin plays nice.
On others… let’s just say coffee becomes a survival tool.

 

Enter the Fabric Frenzy

Once the shape settles into something worth loving, the real fun begins: fabric testing. At this point, everything starts to shift.

Different materials are applied to the 3D form to observe how they drape, stretch, or hold their shape. Cotton adds breathability but lacks edge. Satin flows beautifully but offers little support. Brocade steals the spotlight but might insist on being the main character.

And then there are knits—so full of promise, yet totally unpredictable.

 

The Final Choice

After extensive testing, we selected a premium knit fabric paired with a signature print from our Spring/Summer 2025 – Structured Threads collection.
The combination brings the balance of structure and flexibility we were aiming for, delivering a look that is both youthful and elegant. Most importantly, it makes this corset truly one-of-a-kind.

 

The Story Behind the Seams of Corset

Ultimately, this entire process—packed with digital fittings, pattern tweaks, print auditions, and a few happy accidents—transforms a rough concept into a wearable narrative.

Very soon, the full evolution will be revealed in our upcoming behind-the-scenes video.

 

Expect the good, the chaotic, and of course, the final “aha!” moment.

 

Because let’s be honest: no corset becomes iconic without a little drama.
