Giving a second life to its tights is what the very young label Axelleroi offers with its stockings that can be transformed into sexy panties.
January 2019. Axelle Leroy has an original idea: to create a brand of stockings halfway between tights and lingerie. His creed? To offer stylish, resistant, comfortable, elegant and eco-responsible models.
Sold at €34.90, Axelleroi tights have an original feature. These semi-opaque (30 denier) black stockings are sewn to a thong or high-waisted panties, embroidered with lace or ruffles, worthy of the finest lingerie brands. And that’s normal: to make its products, the brand turned to a French factory that works with many lingerie brands, while the assembly is done in Tunisia.
In terms of materials, Axelleroi has focused on European fabrics that come, in part, from recycled fibers. Quality production for a better way of consuming. The label is also keen to be inclusive and offers a wide choice of sizes, in order to correspond to a maximum of morphologies and to stick to its maxim: “All women are unique, each of them is plural”. For now, Axelleroi offers five models of tights, all named after a district of Paris.
