First principle
Lace as inheritance, not as trend
We work in calais lace, valenciennes and Lunéville embroidery. Patterns that have existed for centuries, spun now by a contemporary hand. Elegance is not a season.

Manifesto
Dressing your inside is the first form of elegance.
We don't design to be looked at. We design for what you feel seeing yourself an hour before leaving the house — or on a day you don't leave at all.
Second principle
Small runs, large decisions
We don't produce in excess. Every reference is sewn in runs of fewer than sixty pieces. When a series sells out it doesn't come back the same: it comes back better.
An editorial piece
Third principle
For your mirror, not for anyone else's eyes
Vyolettae is put on for you first. That is the only measure that counts. Everything else —how you are seen, where you wear it, with whom— comes later, and comes on its own.
Your own intimacy

Private details
Materials, sizing, making time and price are sent by email to whoever asks. The maison replies personally, with no forms in between.
Raw material
Elegance begins in the weave.
Vyolettae works with four materials. There is no fifth. Each one chooses its own body — and none of them is substituted.
01Calais · France
Calais lace
Woven on Leavers looms since 1817. A pattern with memory, a weightless hand, exact transparency.
- Tradition since 1817
- Egyptian cotton thread
- 92% cotton · 8% elastane
02Lunéville · France
Embroidered tulle
Hand-embroidered on silk tulle. Every flower takes between four and eight hours of work.
- Lunéville stitch
- 100% silk tulle
- Hand-finished
03Como · Italy
Washed silk
19 momme. The fall of liquid, the warmth of cotton. Given a matte wash that takes the taffeta shine out of it.
- 19 momme
- Matte wash
- Hypoallergenic
04Lyon · France
Aged satin
Silk satin put through an ageing process that puts out the surface light — density without television glare.
- Matte treatment
- Dry hand
- Natural dye
Lookbook · Four harmonies
Editorial Spring MMXXVI.
Four colour harmonies, four pages from the atelier's notebook. The lookbook is not a catalogue: it is the atmosphere of each combination.
L01 · Emerald + Light
The day starts like this: green lace over ivory linen, a spool of bronze thread, coffee at the waist.
L02 · Emerald + Shadow
Emerald ribbon coiled over black satin. One antique bronze button. The atelier's golden hour.
L03 · Shadow + Light
A strip of black lace, a page of ivory cotton, a bronze pin. Nothing spare. Nothing missing.
L04 · Total Black
Layers of jet satin and lace. A bronze seal at the centre. The light surrenders to the material.
