I also use patterns I buy on EBay, particularly the french knickers (tap pants) and shorty bloomers that are so comfortable for lounging and wearng under skirts and dresses. I even made a pair of side-buttoned tap pants like they wore in the 1930s before elastic came into wider use. I can dress them up with touches of lace, ribbons and other feminine detailing. Much better than the boring underwear on the racks these days, most of whicb lacks any sense of romance. If it worked for Carole Lombard, why not me?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052667328095232732.post-16495287786569468652013-01-14T04:25:28.579+13:002013-01-14T04:25:28.579+13:00I used to sew my own slips,full slips, teddies, c...I used to sew my own slips,full slips, teddies, camisoles, and have even sewed panties.

It is such fun working with those lovely fabrics and laces. You need a little bit of practice & patience (and endurance, because most of the time the first bra is not perfect), but if you can sew jackets, why not lingerie?

Sometimes they don't have the most appealing pictures on the front, but they come with really good instructions if it is your first time delving into bra-making. As with anything, the more you do it the easier it gets. My first bra was a monstrosity, but you pick up techniques quickly if you try and try again!

Unfortunately my stash is huge at the moment so I really don't need more fabric. If you go, hope you get lots of pretty fabrics. <br /><br />Suzy- You're welcome. I look forward to seeing your vintage pantie and vest pattern made up. <br /><br />Rhia- I think it might be difficult here too, although I have seen underwire, bra clips and straps in the fabric store. <br />I look forward to seeing your finished silk slip. I want to use silk for my lingerie too. It's expensive here but I've been lucky and managed to get some half price. I've also bought vintage silk and some old silk blouses to cut up for smaller items.Camelia Crinolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13255747263262874628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052667328095232732.post-16473799557929956812011-05-15T08:05:47.401+12:002011-05-15T08:05:47.401+12:00I have actually made pair of bra and corset when s...I have actually made pair of bra and corset when studying to be a seamstress. But that's pretty much it. The thing is that atleast here in Finland it has been very difficult before to get all the necessary material for making bra, unless you wan't to destroy old pair of bra to rip off all bits and pieces. <br />But for other lingerie, like knickers and camisoles, I don't see any reason why people shouldn't make them. <br />I have made petticoats and at the moment I have silk slip under construction atm. I like to invest on good material so I refuse to make camisoles or slips from anything else than silk. That is also the reason why I haven't made lot of them. Silk satin or other underwear-quality silks are very expensive here.Rhiahttp://www.evildressmaker.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052667328095232732.post-27593615421271153002011-05-15T00:41:42.883+12:002011-05-15T00:41:42.883+12:00Thank you for all those links!

Bonds do make cute undies but the quality doesn't seem that great and, while they used to be Australian made, they've recently moved all production to China, so I'm hesitant to buy them. Elle McPherson and La Perla are pretty. I might have to look at them for some inspiration.<br /><br />Georgia Rose- You can get bra patterns that do include underwire/support and I think Spotlight even sells bra underwires. I love high waisted undies too. I'm hoping I can cobble together a vintage style high waisted undies pattern from some other patterns or draft one.Camelia Crinolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13255747263262874628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052667328095232732.post-14475652785925002432011-05-12T18:54:25.642+12:002011-05-12T18:54:25.642+12:00I would really love to make lingerie!

I think unless I could learn how to put in underwires, making any bras would be off-limits! But things like swimwear, slips and underwear I would love to sew. I like high-waisted, modest undies and they're hard to come by in terms of ethically made products.Georgia Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11802835174547914151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052667328095232732.post-64066961721334084122011-05-12T18:16:54.551+12:002011-05-12T18:16:54.551+12:00I have made slips as outer wear as I love the shap...I have made slips as outer wear as I love the shape and it is usually cut on a bias, so it falls beautifully. I don't think I'd make undies, as I love my bonds undies too much and I don't think I could ever do better. <br />As for fancy underwear, I love that it is the only thing I splurge on. La Perla, Simone Perelli, Elle McPherson......to name but a few. Underwear never goes out of style. <br />I will be very interested to see how you go though.
