NOVEMBER: I’m looking for a bra with a wide central front panel. The central front panel is often too narrow for me. As a result, the bra is not always as stable as I’d expect.
OCTOBER: Am I right in thinking that my size in a corsage or guêpière is the same as my bra size?
SEPTEMBER: Puis-je partir du principe que ma taille de bustier ou de guêpière est la même que ma taille de soutien-gorge?
AUGUST: I take a large cup and I was wondering what I should look out for when buying a bra? I want good lift and a good figure, but how do I achieve that?
JULY: I’ve lost a lot of weight recently, but astonishingly my cup size appears to have increased. How is that possible?
JUNE: Why can’t you just quickly make some more when a series runs out but demand is still high?
MAY: I’m looking for colours that don’t show under light summerwear, but I’m not a fan of the colour Cognac.
APRIL: What’s the best way to push up my breasts?
MARCH: How can I change those proportions to make my breasts look smaller?
ARCHIVE
It’s very difficult to anticipate how many quantities of the various models we will need. Customer tastes are unpredictable. We find it as much of a pity as you do when a series sells out before the end of the season. By then it’s simply too late to make more, because the lingerie production process is long and complex, and very time-consuming. First you have to buy in all the fabrics, materials and components. We source from dozens of different suppliers, who sometimes have to ratchet up production themselves. If we have sufficient fabric and materials in stock, we will manufacture a certain quantity of extra pieces ourselves during the season. In other words, it takes a bra several months to go through the entire production process. Too long to produce extra stock and get it out to the shops before the season ends.
