Réseau Lace Hi.Bred Halter designs are our newest endeavor. They demonstrate what is possible with lace-making technology, showing the capacity for style and function to merge with efficient clean, waste free manufacturing through wise product design.
Hi.Bred Halter
Development Timeline
We wanted to design a single piece of fabric halter bra that applied the pressures of weight around one's back and shoulders vs on one's neck. Ideally it would have no elastic or sewing and be composable at the end of life.
We started the Hi.Bred Halter project around May of 2023 The convenience of dreaming of a design and then being able to physically produce a testable prototype virtually overnight is a real gift.
Our journey has led us to create entire lace products that are beyond ornamental; transforming this ancient art into something that aligns with the world's current needs: functional designs that conserve energy and resources in their entire lifetime.
Hi.Bred Halter Dress
We're always developing new ways to do things faster. Springs help us lace instead of sew, providing for a garment with freedom of movement.
We've been at this a long time. It's easy to forget that there are many failures to each success, but that is how we learn and become better.
We look forward to sharing these final iterations. Everything is inner-connected and working together - providing a whole new fit and feel.
