Flou & Draping

Softness is hard to master. The art of flou and draping requires an intricate, almost instinctive understanding of how fabric moves and behaves, and how to harness it in a way that is flattering and beautiful.

For such delicate work, we have found the best in the business to become our partners.

Our partner in Italy boasts advanced expertise in corsetry and moulage, and the one in France specialises in embroidery and beading.

Couture and Limited Edition

For VICs, we produce couture-level pieces in very limited quantities.

These are highly intricate, often fully embroidered. We place these garments in the most capable hands of our Italian partner that specialises in high-end couture.

Pattern & Precision Assembly

The more traditional production approach involves the masterful use of patterns to produce flowy garments.

It takes tremendous precision to consistently produce these lightweight garments such that each one drapes in a way that matches the artistic design. From tissue-supported constructions, to precise hand-rolled hems, and strategically placed fabrics, every aspect takes careful study.

VAENTES works with partners in Italy, Portugal and France for these projects.
