ABC da Lingerie

A largura das alças é adaptada à funcionalidade dos diversos soutiens, tendo também em conta a óptica moderna, a forma de vestir e o elevado conforto. A altura das alças é regulável. No caso de tamanhos e copas maiores as alças são mais largas.

Fibra natural de origem vegetal. O algodão é de fácil tratamento e agradável à pele. Têxteis com algodão são macios, aconchegantes, finos, absorventes e não criam electricidade estática. As diferentes qualidades de algodão resultam do comprimento e finura da fibra. Quanto mais comprido e fino mais valioso se torna o algodão.

Série em renda muito elegante. Uma das séries de maior sucesso da Triumph. Em cada estação novas cores e modelos.

Através de máquinas especiais são bordados pontos no material base. Tamanho e direcção do ponto podem ser alterados conforme pretendido.

Também designado como bordado por corrosão. Produção especial, usando produtos químicos e calor. O material base é dissolvido após conclusão do bordado, de forma a sobrarem apenas os fios de bordar propriamente ditos.

Designação inglesa para soutien.

Peça de lingerie justa ao corpo. Soutien, slip e camisola interior numa só peça.

Straps are positioned on the outside edge of the cup, revealing the décolleté. Perfect for wide necklines.

Peça de vestuário interior feminino com altura pela cintura, com ou sem aros, tendo como função modelar e apoiar.

Também a lingerie está sujeita às influências da moda e tendências. A lingerie da Triumph International é criada tendo sempre em consideração os aspectos de moda, assim todos os anos são lançadas duas colecções: Primavera/Verão e Outono/Inverno.

Parte do peito do soutien, também designada por "bolsas". A Triumph International comercializa soutiens com tamanhos de copas de AA a I.

Marca registada para os fios de elastano da Bayer.

É a designação  global para qualquer fibra elástica e sintética- Posui uma elevada elasticicade, 4 a 7 vezes superior ao seu comprimento. Quando esticada vola sempre ao seu comprimento inicial, não perdendo a elasticisade.

Stitches embroidered onto a background fabric by a knitting machine.

Created by covering the base fabric with stitching to form a continuous pattern then, using chemicals, heat treatment and washing, the background fabric is dissolved so that only the embroidery remains. Very time consuming and labour intensive, Guipure is very expensive.

Assumed to be named after the finest string on a violin, g-string refers to any brief with a 'string' or thong back (see thong and string brief).

The underwire is hidden within the fabric, so it’s absolutely invisible and can hardly be felt.

Lace created using modern machines with electronic steering that create the look of sophisticated woven lace.

The first lace produced on machines, uses a twist or weaving technique resulting in an elegant finish. These machines are no longer made and those that still exist work slowly and are costly to run, so this luxurious lace is now very expensive to manufacture.

An Elastane "stretch" thread.

Also known as variable straps (see V).

Cups without seams, invisible under clothes. A heat and pressure process moulds fabric permanently into shape. Triumph has many years experience using this technique and our environment-friendly process plays a leading role in the marketplace.

Modified cellulose fibre made entirely from plants, feels similar to cotton.

A minimiser bra reduces the appearance of the bust by one cup size.

An extremely fine-spun cellulose fibre approximately 40 times finer than a human hair so that a 10,000-metre continuous fibre can weigh just one gramme or LESS.

Threads made from polyester and polyamide, finer than the finest silk thread. Light, superfine fibres that are particularly soft, pliable and pleasant on the skin, offering maximum comfort.

Fine fibre technology in polyamide, registered by Nylstar.

Super combed Maco cotton is treated with a cold caustic soda solution. The fibres expand and become tight so their profile becomes rounded and the surface smooth.

Holds up stockings, sometimes detachable, increasingly popular since the launch of the hit movie Moulin Rouge.

A key feature of a bra that offers support. Often an integral part of a pretty bra, straps have become a fashion statement. Triumph's straps adjust to ensure a perfect fit and they're designed to be comfortable all day long.

Triumph’s high-tech, high profile, revolutionary Softwear collection made its debut at the end of the Nineties and continues to win attention for great styling, brilliant shapes - and `disappearing´ under clothes!

Reversible warp knit fabric that looks the same on both sides. Without elastane, so non-elastic.

The breast is under extreme stress during sporting activities and as it has no muscles, can easily become stretched, so it’s vital to wear a sports bra. A dedicated sports bra is cut in such a way that the breasts are completely enclosed so they don’t move. Straps won’t restrict movement and at the same time won’t slip. Triumph International offers sports bras suitable for three different levels of intensity.

Used as a 'gripper' band to prevent slippage, especially in strapless bras.

See Moulded.

Innovative circular knitting techniques have allowed seamless production of briefs and tops that fit like a second skin.

Triumph’s famous range of sports bras designed specially to keep the bust properly supported during any form of exercise. The `Tri´ in Tri-Action comes from the triple action of each bra, giving support from above, below and each side.

See G-string.

Material fino e aberto com estrutura que assemelha-se a casulos de abelha.

Pliable stiffeners sewn into the side of a bra - known as the wing - for strengthening and shaping, preventing the breast from moving sideways or the wing of the bra rolling or going out of shape. Also used in bustiers.

Development following on from Jacquardtronic lace with plastic patterns that create an embroidery effect.

Calcinha de corte reduzido, com laterais muito estreitas em tecido ou tiras elásticas.

Brief that fits up to the waist.

É uma fibra de celulose (faia ou pinho) produzida por meios químicos e muito agradável à pele. Tem um brilho especial e um toque suave.
