The house

Since 2012, Brigade Mondaine® has brought together a selection of luxury lingerie designers, leather and latex pieces, BDSM and bondage accessories, body jewelry, sex toys, and intimate objects chosen for their aesthetic and quality of craftsmanship. The house is neither a traditional sex shop nor a classic lingerie boutique. It combines an international e-shop with a private boutique located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, where pieces are presented in a confidential setting.

Two options are available to you. You can order online, with delivery in France, Europe, and internationally, or discover our selection at our private boutique in Paris. During the week, the boutique is accessible with or without an appointment, subject to availability. On Saturdays, it is by appointment only.

Yes. We work directly with the brands and designers we select. Notably, Brigade Mondaine is an official retailer and key account for Bordelle in France since 2012.

Our selection brings together between seventy and one hundred designers of luxury lingerie and BDSM accessories, some of which are exclusively available in our private Paris boutique. Brigade Mondaine is an official Upko retailer and a key partner for Bordelle since 2012, offering one of the brand's most extensive selections in France. We also distribute Anoeses, UPKO, Couture de Nuit, Bracli, and many other designers chosen for the quality of their craftsmanship and the originality of their collections.

Product origin and safety

The European General Product Safety Regulation, applicable since December 13, 2024, reinforces traceability and information requirements for products sold within the European Union. Product sheets may therefore specify the identity and contact details of the manufacturer, importer, or the responsible person within the European Union, the product's origin, as well as relevant safety warnings or information. Brigade Mondaine transmits the information provided by its brands and creators to ensure the transparency and traceability of its selection.

Maintenance and use

Always follow the creator's instructions. As a general rule, opt for a delicate hand wash in cold or lukewarm water using a mild detergent. Do not wring the piece and let it dry flat, away from any direct heat source.

Latex must be hand-washed with a suitable product, rinsed, and then dried thoroughly. Keep it away from light, heat, metal, oils, and greasy substances. Use only latex-compatible products for dressing and polishing.

Clean them gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then let them air dry. Avoid immersion, harsh products, heat, and prolonged exposure to the sun. Care products suitable for the type of leather may be used according to the designer's recommendations.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions and check if the product is waterproof. Use a cleaner compatible with its material, rinse it if permitted, dry it thoroughly and store it separately in a clean, dry place.

The choice depends on the usage and the material of the product. A water-based lubricant is generally the most versatile. Always check its compatibility with latex, silicone, and condoms before use.
