The name of the shop is Kantjeboord. They have a website: www.kantjeboord-amsterdam.nl
The people are very friendly. Their main specialization is material for ladies underwear. They have a lot!
What I am wearing in the photo is made of a blue soft lycra, but of course I cannot tell a brandname as it is home made. If you have a decent sewing machine with a lingerie stitch, and if you have pattern, the whole process of making a pair takes about two hours. A leotard takes about three hours, although, if you want to make it very fancy, there is no upper limit of course.
Patterns you can make yourself by studying the dimensions of some of your favorite pantyhose, and accepting that the first few will be far from ideal.
The price of the lycra is typically 10 Euros/meter, most being 1.5 meters wide.
When I want to make a complete set, 2 meters is more than sufficient. But you have to make sure that the lycra is sufficiently elastic in both directions.
