A unique fashion show and declaration of love to French lingerie
For the first time ever, the biggest French lingerie brands come together to present their new collections during a unique and unprecedented fashion show in the heart of Paris. On the theme of Parisian romanticism, “Lingerie, Mon Amour” is a tribute to the know-how and creativity of French lingerie, which radiates throughout the world.
Organized by “Promincor – Lingerie Française” and supported by the “DEFI La Mode de France”, this poetic and captivating show takes place at the Pavillon Cambon in Paris.
“Lingerie, Mon Amour” highlights the most beautiful pieces from 14 major French lingerie (Antigel, Antinéa, Aubade, Chantelle, Empreinte, Eprise, Epure, Implicite, Lise Charmel, Louisa Bracq, Lejaby House, Passionata and Simone Pérèle) and invites 5 French designers to present their work (Elise Anderegg, Ms Aime, Maud & Marjorie, Paloma Casile and Ysé).
A fashion show highlighting the savoir-faire of French corsetiers
On the occasion of the haute couture fashion show, “Lingerie, Mon Amour” highlights excellence à la Française in a couture spirit, bringing together tradition and modernity, classicism and audacity.
Orchestrated by artistic director and scenographer Frédéric Fontan, with the support of his collaborator Fabien François, the show is divided into 4 distinct parts: 4 iconic Parisian portraits and choreographed sub-sections: Couture shows and dance paintings. The scenography is presented in immaculate, romantic white. A variation of textures, especially draperies à la Française, evokes the richness of French lingerie as expressed in guipure, lace and silk.
In the context of the Pavillon Cambon, situated between the Ritz Paris and Maison Chanel, the show highlights the Parisian woman with a mix of chicness and irreverence, humor and sensuality: Marie-Antoinette version 2017, a mysterious ballerina, and Lady New Look or Dandy Girl in casual smocking … Parisian in all her many international expressions are revisited with an electro symphony in the background.
The orchestra is supervised by the talented founder of the group Prequell, Thomas Roussel, and comprised of 14 musicians. Together, they will play unique and unusual live music that includes an unveiling cascade of chords, percussions, and eclectic electro sounds.
One show, four portraits of French lingerie
The show’s four tableaux revisit the icons of the Parisienne through contrasting universes:
- Marie-Antoinette, joyful and baroque, blends pastels and floral prints with a boudoir spirit.
- Ballet evokes romantic purity through sheer veils and delicate nude tones;
- New Look / New Wave, celebrates a playful, sensual femininity in bold, graphic black.
- Dandy Girl, in tuxedo and high heels, embodies a modern, confident style that balances elegance and audacity.
“Lingerie, Mon Amour” stands as a vibrant tribute to the art of French corsetry — an aesthetic and emotional manifesto for a fashion that unites beauty, freedom, and excellence.
