Like a classic beauty, it's an evidence of effortlessness. It exudes France, Italy, that famous je-ne-sais-quoi. It is the foundation of every outfit for a timeless sensuality.

Let it support you like it intends to: subtle layers creates a light yet efficient support. A piece with a made-to-measure fit: adjustable double straps across the back, to give you more flexibility as you move through your day. Adjustable wide mesh straps with G-hooks for crossed back.

Show it off. Create new with a backless dress. Let it make an appearance underneath a blazer.

The Cause

Lorette uses luxurious overstock material from previous couture house, Lida Baday. The couture house uses some of the finest fabrics and notions produced by Europe’s top mills.
In order to avoid producing more fabric and minimizing our carbon footprint due to transportation of materials, Lorette is engaged in ethical and conscious design and production.
Their signature Italian mesh is soft, yet extremely durable.
Mesh: 80% polyamide 20% elastane
100% certified organic cotton for the gusset

Lorette works exclusively with women. They partner with various talented seamstresses in the city of Toronto. By making the conscious choice to not outsource their production, they offer a fair living wage to everyone involved with its creation. Every sample is carefully tested in advance and all produced pieces have guaranteed quality control before they go out the door to their customers. They work closely with every woman involved because they believe strongly that every positive intention put into the creation of a piece can be felt once worn.

The embroideries are developed in Toronto by a talented duo of mother and daughter originally from India. Their savoir-faire and expertise on manipulating embroideries for traditional Indian weddings matches with the delicacy of the fabric. Directly embroidered onto materials with luxurious polyester thread guarantees for better longevity of the product.
Each embroidery is carefully chosen to represent symbols, concepts and archetypes that can awaken comprehension and intuitive perception of ourselves. By showcasing universal embroidered designs, women are able to create their own interpretations of how their lingerie matches their emotions, needs, and identity as they choose to define it.

The Woman

Founded in 2017 by Parisian designer Laure Stromboni, Laure was born in Paris, worked as a designer in London, UK where she met her husband from the USA and they immigrated to Canada 7 years ago. Lorette acquaints iconic French fashion with a Canadian audience.

The Brand

Lorette was created for women who want to celebrate their female sensuality while declaring that it’s ok to be vulnerable. Lorette empowers women with a choice. No more conforming to the hypersexualized standards of the fashion industry. The Lorette girl instead revels in her feminine individuality and self-confidence in this sustainable lingerie.

Lorette manufactures locally, in Toronto to minimize carbon foot print. Handmade by an all-female staff and part of the slow movement, Lorette produces less but focuses on great qualities of material and expert craftsmanship.

Dead stock fabrics from couture house are used to reduce environmental impact. The fabric gets embroidered first to be then cut and sewed into the undergarments. The local manufacturing enables an easy and effective quality control that is necessary when working with complex construction such as bra and bodysuits. Packaging of Lorette is 100% plastic free.
