Method for setting a leather skin ( 12 ) having an outer surface designed to be visible, includes a step of applying a rigidity increasing treatment, a step of setting the skin using a mould co-operating with the outer surface of the skin ( 12 ), one at least of the two steps being executed only locally at an elongated part (B) spaced apart from the edge of the skin ( 12 ) and substantially parallel to the edge, and a step for facilitating the maintenance of the shape by locally applying a shape maintaining material to the inner surface of the skin ( 12 ), in particular a thermoplastic resin ( 24 ). The invention is useful for making automotive interior trim.
