Frastaglio: the art of handmade silk lingerie
In an era dominated by industrial production, the value of artisanal Made in Italy lingerie lies in rediscovering slow, precise, and unrepeatable gestures.
NUEAME was born from a clear vision: to bring back the focus on the quality of corsetry, the manual craftsmanship of lace, and the excellence of fine fabrics.
The frastaglio of Leavers lace represents one of these fundamental gestures. An ancient technique that transforms lace into a second skin sculpted on the body.
What is frastaglio in luxury lingerie
Frastaglio is a manual lace finishing technique used in silk and Leavers lace lingerie, where each edge is finished following the design.
It is not an industrial process, but a handcrafted work that requires precision, sensitivity, and fabric control.
Every curve of the lace is followed with scissors, respecting the natural rhythm of the design.
The Frastaglio Process: Step by Step
The work begins with the manual cutting of the lace.
The fabric is positioned, pinned, and hand-basted with extreme precision.
Next, it is finished with a zigzag machine following the natural pattern of the lace.
Finally, the excess fabric is manually removed, revealing the shape of the design.
The Art of Invisible Precision
Every stage of frastaglio is designed to achieve an apparently simple result: a light, flowing, and natural garment.
Behind this lightness lies an extremely precise work that defines artisanal luxury lingerie.
Made in Italy: The Value of Time and Craftsmanship
Frastaglio represents a form of Italian knowledge that is at risk of disappearing.
At NUEAME, this process is preserved as an essential part of the brand’s identity: a commitment to quality and attention to detail.
It’s not just production. It’s culture.
A New Idea of Handmade Silk Lingerie
Beauty is not added, but built through the process.
The result is silk and Leavers lace lingerie that combines visual lightness, sartorial precision, and natural sensuality.
