Amandine is a French costume designer and corset maker based in Lyon, France.
After a BTEC national in the fashion industry, she graduated from a two-year costume-making and design course at la Martinière Diderot Applied Arts School, Lyon.
Then, in 2019, she joined the Paris Opera Academy for a twelve-month residency in the Palais Garnier dressmaking workshop.
In addition to the temporary missions she carries out in theaters and the film industry, Amandine set up her own business in 2021.
Under the name of A Corps Vêtus, she creates stage costumes and high-end bespoke garments for men and women.
Thanks to her skills in lingerie and corsetry, she also offers services as a freelance pattern drafter and model maker.
"I reached out to Amandine for original pants that fit my values. She understood my expectations and made me discover the tailor's history, so I could choose the cut that represented me the best. This first exchange went very well so I ordered 3 pairs of 50's style wool pants, and then a bespoke waistcoat. The result surprised me with its quality and the feeling of ease that it provided. "
Amandine advised me on creating my lingerie brand, and she managed the product development (material sourcing, pattern making, samples, technical sheets) while respecting their technical constraints. I recommend her expertise and professionalism.
