For several collections, LEMAIRE has been conceiving a series of second skin garments made from fine fabric with a delicate, slightly transparent texture. To produce these pieces, LEMAIRE has called on the savoir-faire of EMO.
In 1978, 120 of the company's employees decided to take over the EMO brand, then associated with luxury goods within Mauchauffé. Today, EMO’s workshop is home to an impressive array of circular knitting machines, which make it possible to produce garments without side seams.
The circular knitting machines produce squares of fabric without side seams.
A prototyping phase leads to the creation of patterns based on orders. The panels are stacked and quilted on needle tables. Then cut to size by band saw following the pattern.
The panels are pressed one last time and prepared for delivery.
