CARINE GILSON
Carine Gilson makes fine art out of lingerie giving it a level of prestige comparable to a masterful couturier. Carine Gilson is one of the very few designers to consider underwear as überwear. She selects simply the finest Lyon silk, the airiest Chantilly lace, a cheeky range of colors, the most generous cuts, and hand-crafted haute couture; nothing is too good for Carine Gilson.
All of Carine Gilson's trimmings, bras, panties, slips, strings, and negligees are unique. Produced in natural silk, a precious translucent material, they are both fluid and elegant when worn. These few grams are lovingly hand-stitched by ultra-qualified seamstresses in her Brussels workshop. The tiny irregularities in shade or finishing are precious details that testify to their authenticity.
With Carine Gilson, perfection is a second nature. Nothing else quite captures the romance, glamour and sophistication of fine lingerie.
A graduate in Fine Arts (Brussels) and from the celebrated Antwerp Academy, Carine Gilson was only 23 when she bought a small sewing workshop. This enabled her to launch the first Carine Gilson Couture Lingerie collection in 1994. In addition to her Parisian address, her collections are also available from New York to Beverly Hills, as well as London with a new Carine Gilson store in Tokyo.
