Paris, 2014. Rachel Bouchon trained inside the great French lingerie houses — Chantal Thomass, Simone Pérèle, Barbara — and finally Aubade, where she was part of the team that developed Boîte à Désir. After fifteen years inside the established houses, she wanted to make something more direct. Atelier Amour was the result: erotic-chic, in the French sense of the term.

The design language is what unites the collection — graphic strapping, ties to undo, magnetic fastenings, open cuts where the older houses would close them. Some pieces are traditionally constructed and sized, others are designed to adjust. 

Open-cup bras, open briefs and thongs, suspenders, bodysuits, harnesses. We brought Atelier Amour to the UK in 2018.
