Maison Parati — Calais lace, made to order

The idea

For three hundred years, lace was given to women and kept from men.

We make one object that quietly disagrees.

Cut in Calais lace. Finished without ornament. Made the day you order it, and not before.

The object

One silhouette.

A single lace boxer brief. We will not make a second style until the first is right. Leavers lace from Calais, a hidden stretch lining set only where it is needed, and a scalloped edge left to speak for itself.

Before the first drop

We are listening.

We are making roughly fifty. Before we do, we want to understand who they are for — honestly, including what you wouldn't buy. Eleven questions, a few minutes.

A little about you

How would you describe your taste in clothes? A line or two.

What underwear do you wear most days? Brand, if you remember it.

Roughly what do you spend on a single pair today?

Have you ever owned anything in lace? In what context?

Reading the idea above — what feels true to you about it, and what feels off? The most useful thing you can tell us. Be blunt.

Knowing it's Calais lace, made to order — what would you guess it costs?

And what would you actually be willing to pay for it?

Would you pre-order and wait 4–6 weeks for it to be made?

Yes Maybe No

What would stop you from buying?
