Ari Van Twillert

As a society, we have completely lost track of how much a piece of clothing should really be worth. Lidewij van Twillert wants to create more value with every garment she creates, by making it personal. For her label Arí van Twillert, she developed algorithms to produce tailor-made lingerie using a 3D body scan. She also redesigned the
outdated, uncomfortable underwire in bras and invented the Curvearis: custom-fit breast support that closely follows the contours of the body and is 3D printed for every customer.
Her lingerie is made by hand in her workshop in Rotterdam. Arí van Twillert also creates 3D printed jewellery to match the lingerie, so that you can still show something of what you are wearing underneath your clothes. All her products are tailor-made and by order, so that she never has any ‘dead stock’, which significantly reduces waste.
