Para -lingerie. When parametric meets lingerie. Parametric has taken over in the modern times. It’s now seen everywhere in addition to architecture. We can see it in product design, furniture design, jewelry, fashion, art and now it launched one of the biggest and well-known lingerie products, Victoria Secret Lingerie.

The Victoria Secret Lingerie is made of many snowflakes like pieces,3D printed that interlock with each other to form this rigid layer of fabric that lies on the model’s skin at the fashion show.

Fashion tries to integrate with the rise of technology in fabrication and design. I see this as an obsession of technology that tries to roll deep into our everyday lives and now used in lingerie.

Victoria Secret Lingerie:
That’s how it happened. The model’s body gets 3D scanned then the model is fabricated upon the dimensions of the woman’s body out of white nylon.Then the assembly takes place on her body. For sure it’s creative, but I see it doesn’t meet the function well.

As this rigidity in the fabric turns women’s body to a sculpture that doesn’t move.It’s not practical as the fabric should be smooth and flexible for movement. Creativity has no end, it could turn something real into surreal. We should take care not to get controlled by technology but vice versa.

Anastasia Andreieva is an accomplished Architectural Projects Editor at Arch2O, bringing a unique blend of linguistic expertise and design enthusiasm to the team. Born and raised in Ukraine, she holds a Master’s degree in Languages from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Her deep passion for architecture and visual storytelling led her to transition from translation and editorial roles into the world of design media. With a keen eye for conceptual clarity and narrative structure, Anastasia curates and presents global architectural projects with precision and flair. She is particularly drawn to parametric and digital design, cultural context, and emerging voices in architecture. When I’m not analyzing the latest architectural trends, you’ll probably find me searching for hidden gems in cityscapes or appreciating the beauty of well-crafted spaces. After all, great design—like great connections—can be found in the most unexpected places. Speaking of connections, because architecture isn’t the only thing that brings people together.
