Six generations of corset makers have perpetuated the "Cadolle touch" here: that refined understanding of feminine body shapes that has distinguished the House since Herminie Cadolle invented the corselet-bra.
Strong support requires precise technical construction: deep cups, wide and adjustable straps, and a reinforced underbust band to distribute weight without marking the skin. Our selection offers these lace and silk bras in the House's bespoke colors, so that the technicality of the support never overshadows the piece's refinement. Each model is designed to structure the bust in height and width, rather than simply containing it.
Some cuts prioritize a front opening for easy daily adjustment; others feature a balconette or bustier to complement an evening outfit. In all cases, the House ensures that the lace or silk delicately adorns the technical structure, for a piece that reassures as much as it seduces. It is precisely in this meeting of technicality and elegance that the "Cadolle touch" resides.
This collection is aimed at all women seeking reliable support for everyday wear as well as for more significant occasions: wedding lingerie designed to support without constricting, a lace piece for Valentine's Day, or simply the comfort of a well-fitted bra every day. For body shapes that do not find their match in a standard size, custom-made remains the ultimate expression of Cadolle's expertise. Each custom-made piece is crafted in our Parisian workshops, where precise measurements and successive fittings allow for the adjustment of cups, straps, and band to the exact body shape of each client.
Choosing the right plus-size bra:
The choice of strong support begins with precise measurements: bust and back measurements determine the band, while the cup size must be checked without compression or empty space. Wide straps and a stable underbust band prevent slipping and distribute weight throughout the day. A well-positioned underwire, which follows the root of the breast without ever digging into the skin, is a sign of a successful fit.
For care, lace and silk are delicate materials that require gentle washing, by hand or on a delicate cycle, to preserve the elasticity of the straps and the hold of the band. Avoiding spinning and machine drying helps maintain the piece's support over washes.
