The World of Color at Bra Builders

We'd like to introduce you to our lovely palette of possibility. We have the "recipe" for all these colors, although we are not always actively producing them. Our custom process features  Standard Colors that you can find for any lingerie project and Seasonal Colors which are launched quarterly to highlight various laces and fabrics.  The dyeing process is one that takes some time throughout the week of active orders, so if your order includes custom dyed supplies, please share your understanding and patience with the shipping time.  We are truly proud of how Bra Builders feeds the lingerie-making community with this unique offering...thank you.

Let me step you through our colors...
