Meeting the designer behind the new Le Désir collection “Shade” we are able to have a look inside one of the creative brains of Shots, Leandra Burgers.
We get to ask questions about how her creative brain works, what triggers her, how she works and why is she not wearing shoes.

Can you walk us through your design process and how you approach creating lingerie that caters to a diverse range of body shapes and sizes?
My process is looking at the market and asses what is missing, what is out there and what can we develop, what influences it has in fashion, what I see on the catwalks now and in the past, influencers, and haute couture This identifies what is in the mainstream fashion and I translate that to our industry. Female bodies are the main inspiration, the shapes, and the lines. I try to get most of my inspiration from Mother Nature.

Lines in the sand, figures in the water along the side, simply a fruit that you cut open; i love the beach! This is how I make figures and then I start drawing, pencil and paper, sketching until I think it's good enough, I already have materials and fabrics. in my head while sketching.
