La Perla, meaning “pearl” in Italian, was founded by skilled corsetière Ada Masotti in 1954. Masotti presented her early designs in velvet-lined boxes, as if they were pieces of jewelry. Now one of the most coveted high-end lingerie brands, La Perla is especially known for its luxurious fabrics, such as the finely embroidered net used for this ensemble.
