Does it seem very difficult? Not at all, you just need to show a little patience, attentiveness and imagination.

A brief excursion into the history of underwear

Panties as part of the women's wardrobe appeared quite recently - in the 19th century.

At that time, of course, they were very remotely similar to modern underwear. Due to the underdeveloped industry, wealthy ladies ordered this intimate piece of clothing from experienced dressmakers. And those who did not have enough money for the services of a milliner figured out how to sew underwear with their own hands. Many peasant women did without underwear for several decades of the 20th century.

With the development of textiles, panties began to be sold in most stores at affordable prices and gradually became an indispensable part of the outfit not only for women, but also for men. And with the invention of elastic bands and elastic synthetic fibers and the way they were mixed with natural fibers, underwear design became incredibly simple and practical, as everyone knows it today.

Design Choice

First of all, you need to choose how the future "designer" underwear will look like. You can sew almost any model yourself if you have at least minimal experience in sewing.

So, it's worth a little walk through the most famous types of panties.

• Slips are the most popular design in the world.

Completely cover everything from the back and front, thanks to the elegant cutout on the hips, these panties visually lengthen the legs. Slips come with elastic at the hips and at the waist. To give elegance, this model is usually decorated with lace.

• Shorts or boxers.

This model was borrowed from the men's wardrobe and improved. And today, looking at the graceful short shorts, entirely consisting of openwork lace, it's hard to believe it. There are two types of boxers: with a seam in the middle and with seams on the sides. The second type is more convenient, but often inferior in elegance to the first. It is worth noting that shorts are sewn much easier than slips.

• Thongs are one of the most spectacular types of underwear, consisting of a triangle in front and a thin strip passing between the buttocks in the back.

This look is not suitable for daily wear, but for special occasions it is simply irreplaceable. Despite the simple design, it is very difficult to sew beautiful and comfortable thongs, so it is better for beginners to opt for simpler models for their debut.

• Other varieties. In addition to the three main types, there are a huge number of subvariations: tanga, culotte, active, brazilian, tong, thong shorts, corset briefs and others. Before moving on to sewing such panties, it is worth mastering the 3 main types in order to “fill your hand”.

To make a pattern or not?

Having heard the word “pattern”, many no longer want to sew something so much, because everyone remembers from labor lessons in high school that building it requires various measurements and incomprehensible mathematical calculations. For those who do not know how to do all this, you can purchase any sewing magazine where ready-made patterns are presented, or download them from the Internet.

There is also an easier way. As a template, you can use a suitable model of your own underwear. However, for this procedure it will have to be cut open. In this case, it is worth making sure that the fabrics of the panties and the future sewing masterpiece match in properties. Otherwise, the finished product will either be small, or it will sit ugly when trying on.

Gusset - what is it and what should it be sewn from

When preparing for how to sew underwear, it is worth remembering some aspects. First of all, regardless of the model chosen, panties should have a gusset.

This name is the part of underwear and tights, located between the legs. It is always made from natural fabrics, as they are more absorbent and wash better. As a rule, several layers of cotton or terry cloth are used for the gusset.

Elastic band, threads and seams

Another important element in the design of underwear is the elastic band. Usually the widest one is sewn in at the waist and two smaller ones near the legs. Sometimes underwear is made without an elastic band, but this requires a specialized synthetic fabric. When choosing the design of a future product, you need to immediately consider whether the elastic band will be hidden under the fabric or whether it will serve as an element of decor, as is the case with sports shorts.

Seams are also quite an important element in underwear, which should be given attention. Ideally, when sewing panties, you should use an overlocker that does not rub. However, in the absence of this unit, you can use a conventional sewing machine using a zigzag seam, but you should choose very thin threads, smooth, elastic, with a long nylon thread).

Fabric choice

This stage is one of the most important in the process of preparing how to sew underwear. Most often, natural linen, silk) with the addition of 5-10% elastane or lycra are used as the fabric for panties. This combination allows the product to sit well on the figure, and also does not interfere with air circulation. In addition, natural fabrics absorb moisture well and do not cause allergies.

However, the modern textile industry does not stand still and is constantly evolving. Thanks to this, a huge number of synthetic fabrics have been developed that are perfect for sewing underwear. Among them are microfiber, layosel, sensitex, simplex and others.

Today, those who are thinking about how to sew are very lucky. After all, most modern lace is made with the addition of elastane, and it stretches perfectly, which means that panties made from such a fabric will be not only beautiful, but also comfortable. However, when choosing elastic lace, you should not buy cheap Chinese fabrics, because after a few washes, threads will stick out of them or they will become covered with spools.

Cashmere has recently begun to be used as a fabric for underwear in Canada. As for the harsh winter - the idea is very good. Of course, this fabric is somewhat rough for intimate places, so the gusset will need to be made of cotton, but it may well turn out to be beautiful and warm underwear.

How to sew underwear from knitwear

The process itself is divided into several stages.

• Knitwear, unlike synthetic fabrics, can shrink, so before starting work, it must be washed and dried twice. Only then can you move on to ironing.
• Ironing such a fabric should be very gentle with an iron at medium temperature.
• After ironing, you can proceed to cutting. Gently lay a piece of fabric on a flat solid surface (without stretching), patterns of the future product are placed on it. To prevent them from slipping, you can attach them with pins, masking tape (when sewing from the inside out) or press the pattern with something heavy.
• Slippery jersey is unacceptable to cut in two layers.
• When all the patterns are pinned to the fabric and circled, the details of the future product are carefully cut out. For a low-waisted slip model, there will be four of them: a back piece, a front piece, and two gusset pieces.
• Having fastened everything with pins, the parts are sewn together one by one (in this case, a specialized knitting needle should be used, which is more gentle on the fabric). First, the lower part of the gusset is sewn to the back part, then to the front. Then the product is turned inside out, and the second part of the gusset is sewn to it. Only after that the panties are sewn on the sides.

• It's time for the rubber bands. For traditional slips, openwork elastic bands for underwear are used. First, the elastic is sewn on the front side. And then it “hides” inside and is stitched again in a zigzag.

• After the hidden elastic is sewn to all three openings of the panties, the finished product can be measured.

This example showed how to sew underwear of the simplest design without any decor. If you want to make this model more elegant, you can sew it from a plain fabric, and sew on elastic lace instead of elastic at the waist. You can also cut out the front of the product from another fabric or make it in two layers: lining and lace on top.

How to sew lace underwear

Paradoxically, but sewing lace shorts is much easier than a similar product from any other fabric.

It is easier to sew underwear (lace) by hand or on a typewriter, because there is no need to sew in elastic bands, since they are not necessary due to the elasticity of the fabric. But it is worth remembering that this applies only to this model and fabric, in other cases, an elastic band should be sewn at least into the waist area.

• For the product you will need a wide lace ribbon at least 20 cm wide, in addition, you need a small piece of knitted fabric for the gusset.

• 2 main details are cut out of lace, and 2 small inserts are cut out of knitwear, if desired, they can be overlaid or stitched with a zigzag, although you can not process the edges in any way.
• Lace details are connected to each other and sewn together.

However, it is worth noting that the seam between the legs is made perpendicular to the main one (this is a feature of sewing trousers, underpants and other similar products).

• After the panties are almost ready, the gusset is sewn in. In this model, it is sewn only on the sides, and not around the entire perimeter. You should also make sure that it harmonizes in color with lace.

Any craftswoman, even not very experienced, can sew underwear like the one shown in this example, so you can choose it for your sewing debut.

How to sew a T-shirt

Under the category of "underwear" fit not only panties, but also a bra or T-shirt. If far from any experienced seamstress will take on sewing a bra, then sewing a T-shirt in addition to slips or is very simple even for a not very experienced seamstress.

• Most of the shirt is sewn from knitwear, instead of elastic bands, a beginner seamstress should use elastic lace to match the panties.
• You can use your favorite T-shirt as a template, and you don’t even need to rip it apart.
• We cut out the main part, then the future T-shirt is sewn on the sides, and at the bottom it is trimmed with a double line (done on a conventional machine using a double needle).
• Further, lace is sewn along the top of the product, while in the chest area it is worth making one groove on each side.
• Last of all, harnesses made from the same lace are sewn on.

Beautiful underwear for a woman today is not a tribute to fashion, but a manifestation of the eternal desire to be beautiful both outside and where few people see. And to be unique, creating a unique design of panties or T-shirts is not so difficult. It is important to show only a little patience and carefully study all the tips before sewing underwear.

Some of our clients said that before they got acquainted with Anita lingerie, they sewed bras to order. Most did not find underwear in their size in stores and believed that manufacturers do not sew I or J cups. And if underwear of this size came across, it was impossible to wear it - it simply did not "hold" the chest.

They were sure that the mass product would not sit on their non-standard figure, it would put pressure, and the chest would look terrible. And the perfect fit can only be obtained in linen created personally for their size.

They were ready to pay serious money for tailoring in the atelier. Here is this:

Photos from the Internet, found by the query "Sew a bra to order"

The nuance is that in the production of bras, and especially for large breasts, cut and materials are very important. Serious lingerie manufacturers with extensive experience and traditions have their own design bureaus and a large staff of process engineers. They pay great attention to innovative technologies and can afford to invest a lot of money and time in the development of a new bra model. One bra model consists of 20 - 30 parts. This is real engineering. The novelty is tested by ordinary women, with non-standard figures, for at least a year.

There are several respected lingerie brands in the world that are sewn specifically for non-standard figures and for large breasts. One such company is the German Anita. The peculiarity of Anita lingerie is a perfect fit even for the most unexpected sizes.

What problems do women want to solve by ordering individual tailoring of linen?

1. Large breasts with little underbust volume

Let's say you have a volume under the bust of 65, and a cup size of I. This is a very difficult size to select - only serious manufacturers can adequately sew such a product. Rare size underwear should be just as aesthetically pleasing and have exactly the same functionality as underwear in size 75C, which is considered the standard.

Anita bras are a wide range of sizes: underbust volume from 65 to 125, cups from AA to J.

Examples of models with the rarest sizes:

Nursing bra, safely and carefully supports even the heaviest breasts filled with milk; 70% cotton. Size range 70 - 110, cups D - J

It is difficult for women with a non-standard size to find a beautiful swimsuit. And for the store, the site is not a problem:

Bra on wide unloading straps. Size range 75 - 115, cups A - H

Front closure bustier bra. Size range 80 - 105, cups A - E

Especially for women with stiff hands, Anita has developed a unique model that does not need to be fastened by hand. Bring your hands together, the buttons will fasten themselves.

A unique model with magnets - for those who find it difficult to fasten hooks and buttons. Size range 75 - 115, cups A - E

5. Breast asymmetry

For those who have one breast larger than the other, it seems that this is a pathology. Meanwhile, breast asymmetry occurs in most women. And the problem is lay down

Anita manufactures such a cup from the porous Spacer material - it is light, soft, breathable, and at the same time keeps its shape perfectly. Despite its thinness, it perfectly masks the nipple. You can’t just buy such material, most likely the studio will replace it with foam rubber, which is harmful to the female breast.

So, we put on a padded cup, tighten the strap from the side of the smaller chest, a slight asymmetry is eliminated. If the asymmetry is very large, you can not do without special overlays. They are in the assortment of our partners - salons for the rehabilitation of women after breast surgery.

A novelty - a bra with a thick cup made of jacquard fabric. Size range 70 - 95, cups B - G

Our best-selling bra with a smooth padded cup perfectly shapes a beautiful bust shape.
Size range 65 - 95, cups A - G

6. Hypersensitivity of the skin and increased sweating

And how women suffer when putting on synthetic lace underwear (often on foam rubber), bought in an inexpensive lingerie store. The skin in it does not breathe, sweats and constantly remains moist. Diaper rash appears, the body itches, allergies may occur.
In this case, they start looking for underwear made from natural cotton - and find "grandmother's" bras, produced in the factories of friendly republics. In this case, there can be no talk of an attractive design - our forefathers wore similar models during the Iron Curtain years.

What underwear will help solve the problem of hypersensitivity?

A) Bras with a cotton content of at least 75-80% (you still cannot do without polyamide and elastane - they are responsible for fit and durability):

The problems for which desperate women turn to tailor-made underwear can be listed for a long time: sloping shoulders, very tall or very short stature, mastectomy or breast plastic surgery, etc.

You can find underwear that will help you in our online store or with our partners - come in, call, we will always be happy to help!

But sometimes Anita, with its wide range of sizes, is not ready for non-standard requests of its clients. Then the company's technologists develop a model specifically for the customer:

Sewing business can become a very profitable business! How to open your own profitable business? How to implement such a project quickly, efficiently and profitably? An interesting and win-win answer to the questions posed is the option of a business for tailoring underwear for men and women. All the important points of opening, systematic development and obtaining naturally high incomes from the implementation of such a business idea are offered in this article.

Sewing center opening strategy.

The initial stage for opening any business in general, and a workshop for sewing underwear for people in particular, is based on building a detailed plan for financial investments in starting a business, calculating the volume of production required for a minimum payback and viewing product marketing options. It is to these three main tasks that exact answers should be found, because. such information, expressed in financial units, will allow you to calculate the profitability of the upcoming business.

To open a small sewing workshop needed.

1. Workroom-workshop, where they accept, fulfill and hand over the order. At the first stages, it will not be easy for a business organizer to buy even a small production office. The ideal option is to rent a room. It can even be a large room (from 100m2) in industrial, administrative buildings. It is desirable that such a room outwardly be fully prepared for operation: cosmetic repairs have been made (whitewashing, painting, etc.), order has been maintained, there are all utilities (electricity, water, a bathroom and maybe even the Internet).

The territorial location of a small workshop for sewing underwear does not have to be opened within the city. Firstly, renting space here will be more expensive than outside the city. Secondly, sewing underwear for men and women does not require individual orders - it will be the production of a certain amount (up to 1000 pieces) for each model of underwear. Only the transportation of workers to the sewing workshop and back can be inconvenient. Such a task can be performed by the leader's personal transport.

The cost of renting such a room ranges from 100 rubles per square meter (depending on the specific region).

2. Working tool: you will need to purchase multifunctional sewing machines, small equipment (scissors, threads, needles, pins, etc.), ready-made model designs, material for sewing underwear.

In choosing sewing machines, you can limit yourself to an electromechanical model, because. the cost of such equipment is an order of magnitude lower than for electronic or computerized options. Yes, the number of operations, the speed of their execution, the accompanying functionality in electromechanical machines is lower. But, on the other hand, you can buy one up to 10,000 rubles.

To carry out the first batch of tailoring of underpants (1000 pieces for men and women each), it is necessary to attract 4 seamstress workers, i.e. You will need to buy 4 sewing machines.

We will allocate another 3,000 rubles for small inventory.

But on the fabric, especially for sewing men's and women's underpants, you will need to invest enough! The fabric itself should be natural: thin and openwork (for women) and elastic and durable (for men). Fabrics such as modernized viscose, cotton, modal, silk, bamboo poplin, and similar fabrics are ideal. Any fabric in Russia is presented with a web width of 1 m and at a price of 500 rubles. From a running meter of fabric with a width of 1 m, we get 3 models of men's or 4-5 models of women's underpants of size 54.

The calculation is not difficult:
- for sewing a batch of men's underpants in 1000 pieces (200 pieces for 46, 48, 50, 52, 54 sizes) you will need:
1) 200: 3 = 66.6 = 70 m of fabric per size;
2) 70 x 5 = 350 m of fabric for all sizes of underpants for men.
- for sewing a batch of women's underpants in 1000 pieces (200 pieces for 46, 48, 50, 52, 54 sizes) you will need:
1) 200: 4 = 50 m of fabric per size;
2) 50 x 5 = 250 m of fabric for all sizes of panties for women.

Total fabric cost:
1) 350 + 250 = 600 m of fabric in total;
2) 600m x 500 rub/m = 30,000 rub. you will need to spend on fabric (this is at a minimum cost and when buying in bulk!).

Total for financing the purchase of working tools and materials:
4x10,000 (machines) + 3,000 (additional inventory) + 30,000 (fabric) = 73,000 rubles

3. To fulfill the planned plan (tailoring of 1000 pieces of women's and men's shorts), it is necessary to use 4 seamstresses, 4 cutters, 1 technician for cleaning the premises. This is the minimum contingent of employees in a sewing workshop.

The working day is set in accordance with the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and is 8 hours + 1 hour break. It takes two people (a cutter and a seamstress) to perform the operation of cutting and sewing one panty, and they must complete this operation in 15 minutes. According to ready-made patterns and with professionalism, this time will even be in abundance.

For one day of work, 2 pairs of workers will sew:
1) 60 min / 15 min = 4 panties per hour;
2) 4 pieces x 8 hours x 2 pairs = 64 pieces of panties per day from 2 pairs of workers;
3) (1000 + 1000) / 64 = 31.25 days to complete the entire production volume.

Taking into account the fact that in the Russian Federation there is a five-day working week, workers will be able to complete the task in 6 weeks. You can reduce this time if you increase the number of workers by one more pair. Then it will be possible to cope with the order in 20 days.

The salary of each employee must be at least the living wage established by the state - at least 10,000 rubles. How the calculation will be made (piecework payment scheme or time-based) is up to the owner of the enterprise to decide. All conditions must be agreed with employees when hiring.

4. To calculate the payback of the enterprise - the products should be sold. If an order for tailoring of shorts is received in advance and the selection of personnel was already carried out on the basis of the agreed production volumes, the time for its implementation, then this simplifies the matter. You just need to take the finished product to the customer and get the money.

But, if you planned to sew 2000 pieces of underpants for men and women before you found a buyer for these products, then during the order lead time, the organizer of the clothing business should make every effort to solve the sales situation. Placement of advertising on the Internet on thematic portals, in the press, search for buyers-owners of specialized stores and outlets - these are the main activities of a businessman-manufacturer.

Assessing the financial cost of investing in advertising for each of the above options, it should be said that the Internet is the cheapest and most efficient. Information about your product will be seen by millions! And of course, among them there will be those who want to start cooperation.

5. Having clear financial calculations of financial investments in opening an enterprise and producing the first batch (including advertising costs), it is worth thinking about the unit cost of production. To do this, we divide all direct costs (fabric, threads) + costs for the salary of workers by the number of products produced:
(3000 + 30,000 + 4x10,000) / 2,000 = 36.5 rubles. This is the cost of 1 model of underpants.

When determining the retail price for products, one should also add the cost of electricity, renting premises, documenting the status of a private entrepreneur, tax certificates, interest on repayment of purchases of fixed assets of the enterprise (sewing machines). And of course, take into account the existing price standards in the region for such products.

The minimum price of underpants in the Russian Federation starts from 50 rubles. Of course, to sell a product for such a price means not to make a profit, but only to cover costs and pay for hired labor.

How to increase the price?

Add uniqueness, creativity, attractiveness to your products. If you fulfill such conditions successfully, you can count on a price several times higher than the one named.

Here is such an approximate business plan for opening a small clothing business in Russia. Where to spend the profits - it is up to the owner. Of course, it is worth investing in increasing production capacity, expanding the range of production, staffing, creating more favorable working conditions, increasing wages and other indicators of a successful business.
