Lise Charmel was born in the 1950s in Lyon, the cradle of French corsetry. She devoted herself to making made-to-measure pieces and developed an in-depth knowledge of all body types. Taken over in 1975 by Jacques Daumal, the company opened up to a new creative dimension, designing seamed swimwear collections that sculpt the figure with comfort and support. From lingerie to swimwear, Lise Charmel cultivates the most precious of skills.
