    <description><![CDATA[A lot of clients ask whether the Cendre Slip is practical in Tokyo's summer heat. The short answer is yes, and the longer answer involves how washed silk actually behaves against the skin when the humidity is high.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Lace lingerie fails for one of two reasons: the lace itself degrades, or the elastic loses its stretch. Both are usually caused by washing. The good news is that both are preventable with a small amount of attention to how you clean the piece. This is what we tell every client who buys a Nuit Bralette or Nuit Thong from us.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Most swimwear sold today lists a fabric composition on the label. Something like 80% nylon, 20% elastane, or 78% polyester, 22% Lycra. These numbers matter, but they do not tell the whole story. The ratio of nylon to elastane affects how the suit stretches, how quickly it recovers, and how long it holds its shape. Here is what we look at when we select fabric for the Rivage and Soleil.]]></description>

    <title><![CDATA[What bias-cut means and why it matters for a silk slip]]></title>

    <guid>https://wavegridlabpulse.com/notes/bias-cut-silk-slip-what-it-means.html</guid>
    <description><![CDATA[The Cendre Slip is cut on the bias. This is mentioned in the product description, but it is worth explaining in more detail because it is the single most important decision in how the slip was made. The bias cut is not a style choice. It is a structural one, and it changes how the fabric behaves against the body in ways that a straight-grain cut cannot replicate.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Standard bra sizing. The number-and-letter system used by most lingerie brands. Does not translate directly to the way we size bralettes at WaveGridLabPulse. Our pieces are sized by band circumference and cup volume separately, and each size is a distinct pattern. This guide explains how to take the measurements we actually use, and what to do with them.]]></description>

    <title><![CDATA[Why we use Nishijin silk trim from Kyoto]]></title>

    <guid>https://wavegridlabpulse.com/notes/nishijin-silk-trim-kyoto-weaving.html</guid>
    <description><![CDATA[The silk trim on the Nuit Bralette and the Cendre Slip comes from the Nishijin Textile Studio in Kyoto. Nishijin is a district in the northwest of Kyoto that has been the centre of Japanese silk weaving for more than a thousand years. We started working with a small studio there in 2020, and the relationship has shaped how we think about trim and detail across the whole collection.]]></description>
