Intimates are aptly named. They're the pieces we wear closest, often for our eyes only.
They're the garments we choose for ourselves first, not because anyone else will see them, but because of how they make us feel. Whether your confidence comes wrapped in delicate lace or your favourite cotton essentials, the right pair becomes the underpinning of the day ahead.
In celebration of National Underwear Day (August 5), we've rounded up 13 dark feminine lingerie brands that make the first layer every bit as considered as the last.
Designed for the Divine: National Lingerie Day, Properly Observed
13 female-founded labels creating lingerie for the divine feminine

The divine feminine appears the moment instinct is no longer edited. She is intuitive, complicated, occasionally feral and entirely uninterested in being polite for the sake of someone else’s comfort. Lingerie designed for her does not attempt to smooth the edges, it celebrates the body exactly as it exists. Every curve. Every dimple. Even the sharp edge of your attitude.
In honour of National Lingerie Day, we gathered 13 labels founded by women who understand this philosophy intimately. These designers create pieces that treat lingerie as expression.
If your lingerie drawer has been feeling uninspired, the below designers have suggestions. Consider this your lingerie drawer upgrade.

We’ve curated a dark feminine sleepwear edit for evenings that deserve better styling.
