About Understatement
Price Range: $49—$119
Founded five years ago by Swedish duo Marie Stolt and Maria Lager, Understatement reclaims women’s underwear for women, by women. Founded upon values of body positivity, you can say goodbye to unrealistic beauty standards and airbrushing.
With bold, sleek, modern aesthetics and understated lingerie features across high-fashion publications like Elle and Vogue, Understatement is a sustainable lingerie brand you’ll want to keep an eye out for.
They offer a large line of eco-lingerie intimates, ranging from lace bralettes, bras, and tops to cheeky briefs, high-waisted lace thongs, and even a range of swimwear made of recycled materials.
For additional body coverage, they also sell comfy-cute organic cotton-modal blend sweatshirts, sweatpants, tees, boyshorts, and shorts.
Understatement’s Ethical & Sustainability Practices
Materials:
Understatement is committed to being a sustainable lingerie brand, and that starts with its sustainable materials, like recycled nylon.
The loungewear collection is made with modal and certified organic cotton.
The Understatement sustainable swimsuit collection and microfiber articles are entirely made from recycled materials via ECONYL® regenerated nylon.
They are also taking steps to make the Gatsby Lace more eco-friendly by adding organic cotton and recycled elastane.
Supply chain & labor practices:
Understatement’s collections are produced close to home, by European and Turkish undergarment expert manufacturing partners.
Their partners prioritize the use of recycled, organic or otherwise sustainable materials, without compromising on durability, design, or innovation.
Understatement ensures that all supply chains and manufacturers offer a healthy working environment to employees.
Carbon commitments & green practices:
This brand removes all plastic from packaging and shipping.
Their iconic Understatement-branded paper bags, boxes and tags are made of FSC-certified recyclable and compostable materials.
Inclusivity:
The brand is women owned and run and they champion body positivity.
Their models are reflective of their values with gorgeous women of all colors and body types strutting their organic sustainable lingerie sets.
My Personal Review of Understatement’s Lace Plunge Bralette & Lace High Waist Briefs:
“I personally pair the Lace Plunge Bralette with the Lace High Waist Briefs (in classically sexy Saboteur black, of course). While I don’t typically wear lingerie, I love these lacy little numbers for a special occasion—and I especially love the double-layered bralette cups that leave just the right amount to the imagination when paired with the translucent cheeky lace bottoms.”
