Why did you call your Albertine brand? Tell us his story ....

We called the mark Albertine because our grandfather was Albert, his father Paul founded in the 1900s a house of corsetry and hosiery. Our grandfather Albert was the patriarch, a man of character, he has deeply marked us and it is a form of recognition to have called our brand name. A tribute to the man, our childhood memories, our family values but also a desire to mark the heritage . The legacy of a family and a know-how, an industry that had its nobility.  

You both come from Biarritz. How does this place influence your creations, how to manage your brand ... ?

To be very exact, we come from the Drôme , but me (Ané mone ), I live in Biarritz since now 10 years. I left Paris after having studied there and spent my first professional years in audiovisual and communication. My sister Caroline after a few years of family adventures in the Caribbean returned to live in Paris. Biarritz is important to us because it is here that the brand has taken off, it is here that we find ourselves in family. Our husbands and kids are surfing, and my sister and I are girls of the sun. The art of living in the south-west is particularly strong and we took a liking to it !

What is the secret of a successful lingerie piece?

A piece of successful lingerie, it can be a panties or a body that combines comfort and style. We are not really in what I call sexy and glamorous "lingerie", we develop a lingerie with soft materials with the details that we like so much: shine, lurex , associations of pure colors, mixture of printed matter , game transparency ... It must be creative, comfortable and feminine. We must limit want to show his lingerie rather than hide it!
