French to German translations [PRO] Bus/Financial - Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
French term or phrase: petites mains Es geht um die Dessousbranche und darum, dass diese derzeit einen Boom erlebt, was auch Investoren anzieht. Depuis qu’elle est rentrée dans le giron de la mode et que les investisseurs s’en mêlent, d’autres horizons s’ouvrent aux idées novatrices, une aubaine pour les jeunes talents toujours en mal de financements. Une chance aussi pour les « petites mains » et les artisans du luxe, qui, dans la croissance exponentielle des très riches, trouvent de nouveau une clientèle pour l’exceptionnel et le sur-mesure…	ABCText KudoZ activity Questions: 444 (7 open) (24 without valid answers) (16 closed without grading) Answers: 683 Germany Local time: 03:12

Allibert (X) 09:26 Mar 13, 2008  Da in der haute couture sehr viel von Hand gearbeitet wird, würde ich ganz allgemein die Näherinnen sagen. Sie sind meist spezialisiert auf Sticken z. B. oder auch Bügeln, Änderungen usw. Cristèle Gillet France 09:22 Mar 13, 2008  J'ai récemment vu un reportage sur la haute couture dans lequel le terme consacré de "petites mains" était utilisé par un créateur de mode anglophone. Le français étant LA langue dans ce domaine, peut être faut-il le laisser tel quel aussi en allemand ?
