Hola everyone! Everyone at the office is so so excited because we have good news for you: the sun is shining (and we hope it’ll stay that way) and our Eva onepiece and Ursula twopiece bathing suits will be available on the eshop this Thursday. Save the date! When NOO reached out to us to collaborate on these two swimsuits, we jumped for joy since we love the brand, the two talented designers and their amazing lingerie line! We wanted the best of our two teams, all of NOO’s lingerie savoirfaire and the Lemonade Studio’s citrusy flair. We needed the most flattering fit, perfect little details and the most amazing print. That’s how we came up with Eva and Ursula with a vintage, but not outdated, touch. The Ursula twopiece was difficult to design and prototype but the entire NOO team understood what we wanted from the start, even if it was complicated... and Anaïs and Elissa from NOO do things right, they gave us the pattern for you to make it at home! So as a sneak peak, here’s a step by step guide to tide you over until it’s available in our eshop! Can’t wait for Thursday!
To make the Ursula bathing suit, you’ll need:
- 1m of lycra fabric, not too thick, from a bolt 1m40 wide, we found these Liberty prints at Motif personnel, the multicolored flowers here and their white flowers on red here,
- 0,45m of antislip band for the top (commonly found in a haberdasher’s/notions shop or even online)
- 1m of clear elastic band (this isn’t mandatory) also found in a haberdasher’s/notions shop or online
- Tissue paper
- Masking tape
- And our pattern that you can download here!
And here’s a sneak peek at the totebag that’ll be included in your swimsuit order, starting on Thursday on WearLemonade.
