I’m sure you’re right about the leanings of ethically-produced undies. I think that’s a hangover from the 70s. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2208240 Wed, 07 Jul 2021 13:26:48 +0000 LaPed 2208240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My impression is that most companies striving for sustainable/ethical production lean more toward true basics rather than lingerie. Lots of simple bralette/brief styles in cotton or bamboo jersey. Kind of Hanna Andersson for grownups. Arq, Pact, TomboyX, Brook There, Groceries Apparel, and a lot of others fall into this category.</p> <p>You might like the offerings from Only Hearts, Cosabella, and Hanky Panky. I haven't looked too deeply into their practices, but it seems all of them are careful about sourcing and production. Pretty sure Cosabella manufactures in Italy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2208178 Wed, 07 Jul 2021 02:37:50 +0000 elpgal 2208178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Found the post you mentioned. For others who may be curious, here is the link:<br /> <a href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/arq-undies" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/arq-undies</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207475 Sun, 04 Jul 2021 13:05:34 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2207475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elpgal, “basic no fuss” sounds like the opposite of these—though I won’t keep anything that’s fussy to wear. Once I have it on, I need to like the look and then be able to forget it’s there. Fancy, fun, forgettable (to the wearer going about her life) and friendly to the future are what I’m looking for. </p> <p>I don’t remember the details, but a few weeks back, someone posted a link to an incredibly detailed review of many brands of simple, sustainably produced undies. I’m pretty sure Jessikams and LaPed were involved in that thread. Wish I could tell you more, because I think you’d be interested, but that’s all I can remember. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207415 Sun, 04 Jul 2021 05:57:48 +0000 elpgal 2207415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pact is the only one I have tried - they are your basic no fuss undies. Their return policy for first-timers is generous. Whole Foods stocks their multipack undies, some tanks, and leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207320 Sat, 03 Jul 2021 17:54:06 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2207320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! Didn’t mean to doubt you, just meant that you’ve got a lot on your plate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207319 Sat, 03 Jul 2021 17:52:37 +0000 Angie 2207319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>FashIntern,</b> yes. Of course I will. I know about quite a few sustainably and ethically produced yoga and workout wear brands, but less so about undies and lingerie. They will pop up, though. Eventually.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207318 Sat, 03 Jul 2021 17:50:00 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2207318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, looking forward to hearing what you think of them, once you’ve tried that brand. </p> <p>Minaminu, thank you! That site seemed like such a good resource! On my way to check out simplybe. </p> <p>Sloper, I like that they’re size-inclusive in several ways. Lots of manufacturers seem to assume that if you’re above a certain bandwidth, you can’t possibly need a smaller cup size. </p> <p>Nikki, I agree—they suggest a couple things not mentioned by posters on a recent thread about what to do with clothing someone no longer wanted. </p> <p>RL, same bra, different cuts? I must’ve missed that one. High-5 from one concaver to another. </p> <p>Angie, if you hear more about them or similar brands through your professional channels, I hope you’ll pass it along. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207304 Sat, 03 Jul 2021 16:34:02 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 2207304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve been getting emails from Pact, who do organic cotton underwear and loungewear. Someday I’ll actually order something and post a review! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207083 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 21:10:57 +0000 Sloper 2207083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing - I'm always happy to find more size inclusive brands too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207023 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 17:26:23 +0000 Minaminu 2207023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>figleaves has been sold to simplybe...</p> <p>thank you for sharing that link! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207013 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 17:08:59 +0000 Anonymous 2207013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool reduce, reuse and recycle options </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2207012 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 17:04:52 +0000 rachylou 2207012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, good find. Interesting that they have at least one bra in different ‘cuts’. I can really only wear a balconette because I have a concave chest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2206989 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 16:22:36 +0000 Angie 2206989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the resource, and no I haven't heard of the brand. The assortment is colourful!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%9cclean%e2%80%9d-ie-sustainably-made-undies#post-2206888 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 10:34:34 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2206888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve been more careful about the sources of my clothing in recent years, looking for items made in ways that reduce pollution and water usage, and don’t involve criss-crossing the globe, by workers who are treated fairly. One exception to this has been lingerie, because it seemed too hard to find. I’m rethinking that now, because I just stumbled across this brand. Their descriptions of policies are brief, but use recognizable standards. Their sizing is inclusive, ranging from 28 to 44 band size and A to K cups. </p> <p>Have you heard of these, or do you have other sources sustainably-made underwear to recommend? I had been planning to shop the Figleaves site, but they’ve closed down :/</p> <p><a href="https://www.playfulpromises.com/pages/sustainability" rel="nofollow">https://www.playfulpromises.co.....ainability</a> </p>
