Onde comprar materiais e moldes para lingerie / Where to buy lingerie patterns and supplies worldwide
Uma das perguntas que mais me fazem, e a primeira que me fazem no início de cada curso ou workshop de lingerie é "Onde é que se compram estes materiais?". Eu costumo dar logo uma lista nas aulas com vários sites de materiais para fazer lingerie, e achei que já era altura de ter a lista aqui no blog. Assim até é mais fácil para mim partilhá-la.
Pelo mundo fora há várias lojas especializadas (umas físicas, outras online) onde se encontram materiais e moldes muito bons para fazermos a nossa própria roupa interior. Cá em Portugal ainda não conheço nenhuma loja física que venda estes materiais, nem mais nenhuma loja online para além da minha, mas aqui fica a lista de tudo o que conheço até agora.
Lembrem-se que, para comprar materiais, consoante o local do mundo onde estão e onde encomendam, podem estar sujeitos a que a vossa encomende passe pela alfândega. Por exemplo, se encomendarem dentro da Europa a compra não precisa de passar pela alfândega. Mas se encomendarem dos EUA ou Canadá para Portugal o pacote vai sempre parar na alfândega e terão que pagar impostos e taxas adicionais. Isto não precisa de ser um impedimento para comprar fora, mas convém lembrar para não haver surpresas depois.
Para comprar moldes em formato PDF, como são produtos digitais, podem comprar de qualquer loja no mundo.
Se souberem de mais alguma loja que não esteja aqui mencionada, por favor digam-me para eu poder actualizar a lista.
The question that I get asked the most when I start a lingerie sewing class is "where can I buy these kind of materials?" I usually have a list prepared to give to them, and I thought that it was about time that I added it to the blog.
There are several shops worldwide that specialise in lingerie supplies or sewing patterns, some of them are brick-and-mortar stores, and some are online stores. This is a list of all the stores that I know of. If you know of any that is not featured here, please let me know and I'll add it to the list.
