Lingerie Goes Public!
Turn classic lingerie into statement fashion.
Lingerie: Not Just Underwear Anymore
Lingerie is breaking free from the bedroom—and the results are stunning. With the Lingerie Pattern Collection by Leena from PatternMaker Software, you can now create six customizable pieces that move seamlessly from undergarments to fashion-forward outerwear.
These patterns aren’t just functional—they’re fabulous. They give you control over fit, fabric, and silhouette, allowing you to design garments that suit your lifestyle, your wardrobe, and your vision.
What’s in the Pattern Collection?
- Bra with Underwire – Classic, structured support
- Bra without Underwire – Soft, comfortable, and breathable
- Waist-Length Bra – Great as a top or layering piece
- Corset – Dramatic and timeless
- Bodysuit / 1-Piece Swimsuit – Sleek, modern, and perfect for layering
- Panties – The essential foundation
Sewing for Innerwear: Fabrics That Feel Good
To use this collection as lingerie or swimwear, opt for:
- Power mesh or spandex blends – for body-hugging comfort
- Silk jersey, tricot, or stretch satin – for luxury and breathability
- Foam cup lining, elastic trims, lace overlays – for detail and function
Whether you’re sewing for yourself or for clients, PatternMaker’s precise measurement system guarantees a personalized fit for every body.
Turn It Out: Lingerie as Outerwear
Fashion-forward designers and stylists are rocking lingerie pieces as outerwear essentials—and you can too using Leena’s Lingerie Macro.
Here’s how to style each piece:
Waist-Length Bra
Use scuba knit, structured cotton, or stretch crepe to create a bustier-style crop top. Pair it with:
- High-waisted pants
- Pencil skirts
- Oversized blazers or longline coats
Corset
Made in denim, linen, or brocade, the corset becomes a power piece. Wear it:
- Over button-down shirts
- As a solo bodice with palazzo trousers
- Layered with flowy skirts
Bodysuit
Double up on function. Make it in matte jersey or spandex, and wear:
- With wide-leg trousers or culottes
- Under jackets for a clean, tucked-in look
- Or solo as a sleek party outfit
Color Theory: Use the Fashion Colors of the Year
Fashion is color—and 2025 is bold. Here’s how to infuse your lingerie pieces with the year’s hottest hues:
- Viva Magenta & Fiery Red – Perfect for confident bras and corsets
- Digital Lavender & Sky Blue – Dreamy bodysuits and crop tops
- Deep Green & Clay – Earthy, luxe tones for structured outerwear pieces
With the Lingerie Pattern Collection, you can create color-forward fashion that resonates with both trendsetters and classic dressers.
Who Can Wear This? Everyone.
Gen Z and Alpha are already obsessed with lingerie styling. But this look isn’t just for the youth. Our patterns are designed to empower every woman.
- Older fashionistas can wear the bodysuit under tailored jackets or the corset with a midi skirt.
- Working women can pair the bra top with high-waisted pants and a blazer.
- Moms on the go can wear body suits and wrap skirts or wide leg pants, or matching panties and wireless bras made in breathable cotton blends under their outer clothing, giving that priceless feeling you get from well-structured under garments.
Age isn’t a limitation. It’s a style category—and we’ve got you covered.
