I’ve always loved cute lingerie and now that there are some brands that are also sustainable, I had to share them. I have been using a lot of push up bras in the past, why? Idk. I am not self conscious about my B cups or anything, I just thought that was the way to go. But since bralettes are having a moment, I’m seriously thinking why haven’t I jumped on that bralette train?
So, who else is in desperate need of new underwear? Whose panties (ew, I said panties) are basically falling apart? Is it just mine? Okay. Fine. I need new underwear stat. I’m not kidding, I think the last time I bought underwear was like 4 years ago…oh my gawd!
This time around, I’m looking to buy soft cup and bralettes only. Maybe I’ll add one or two with a cup for when you need a perfect seamless line moment. As for underwear, I normally use a thong, I like the no panty line look, but I do use panties at night. So without further ado, let me introduce you to these awesome brands and their gorgeous collections of lingerie.
KENT
This brand uses certified organic silks, organic and low impact dyes and a fair and transparent supply chain. I really like the simple designs and they have a beautiful color selection to choose from. My favorites are Rose, Slate and Cool Grey. I’ve been using bralettes lately, and Kent has just what I’m looking for. And if you are into it, they also carry high waisted briefs.
They also partner with social enterprises and non-profits creating an impact for women and girls in emerging markets, through their Female Future Project. You can visit their website here.
UNDERPROTECTION
This awesome Danish brand makes swimwear and clothing collections twice a year. Aside from that, they also have a line of lingerie that is just simply gorgeous. Somehow they always manage to have the prettiest lace and the most beautiful floral patterns that make me swoon, literally. And although most of their items are on the sexier side (nothing wrong with that!) they do have some very nice basics.
All of their products are made in India on a small factory. They obtained the Fair Wear Foundation young designer license, ensuring they are fulfilling the requirements for a safe labor environment. They also use certified materials only such as recycled polyester, lyocell, organic cotton, milk (what?) and recycled wool. Underprotection products are also certified with the Global Recycle Standard, GOTS, Oeko-Tex, and are Peta Approved. You can check them out on their website.
WORON
Now Woron knows where it’s at! I absolutely hate wearing uncomfortable bras but there is rarely an occasion where I don’t wear one. It was a sad reality but sometimes I just have to live with it. But for the founders of Woron, they want your bra the last thing you’ll WANT to take off at the end of the day. They aim for comfort without sacrificing the feminine shape, or the environment for that matter.
They focus on sustainability from the crafting, handling and to the timeless design that you’ll want to keep for years. Their soft bras and briefs look so very comfortable and they are made with modal fabric. They are perfect for day to day but also keeping a very flattering shape, specially in the chest area. Aside from these they also carry robes, slip dresses and bodysuits, which I imagine must be so comfortable too. You can check out their products here.
WHITE RABBIT NY
White Rabbit garments are made in Mexico by a fair manufacturer that employs only women with great working conditions. Their products are made using a rayon fabric from bamboo that meets all safety and environmental standards. And aside from that, they donate a percentage of every sale to an enterprise that works to empower female artisans. They have a Try it on situation on their website which I thought was very interesting and useful. Buying underwear through the internet can get tricky.
From all the brands I’m sharing today, I think this is the only one that carries a bra with a cup. I think is good to have for when you are wearing something that needs a cleaner look. It is not push up, which is not a bad thing at all so basically you just get more coverage. Can you tell I’m over push up bras? The come in black and blush, but they also have some options for those who like a pop of color. You can check all of their products here.
MARY YOUNG
Mary Young focuses on mixing the everyday basics with the wear for your partner lingerie. All the while keeping the pieces comfortable and long lasting. All of their design is done in Toronto and the garments are made in Montreal (Je me souviens :))
The main fabric used is a bamboo blend, which makes them super soft. They also work on minimizing the amount of plastic packaging, and the literature included is fully recyclable. I call that a win win win. I have to say that they have done a great job blending comfort and sexiness on all of the pieces. Long gone are the days of wearing uncomfortable lingerie and I’m totally in! you can visit their website here.
ORGANIC PASSION
Organic Passion is a Spanish brand that focuses on underwear made with organic cotton and modal. Their garments are actually made in Barcelona. They focus on doing small batches of each style, so basically you are wearing one of a kind underwear.
Their styles look super comfortable with a a little bit of sexy in the mix. Their colors are mostly black, white and blue, and they all come with a seam that adds some contrast and shine to the situation. Totally loving this brand. You can check out the rest of their products here.
So there you have it, I think it is a good variety of styles to drool over don’t you think? Which one is your favorite? Let me know in the comments below.
