Stripe + Stare

It all began with Katie's hunt for the perfect pair of knickers. This turned into six years of research and development to create the perfect shape, fit and most importantly comfort. A pair of knickers that are the first you reach for everyday and made of the best fabric possible. And a product that would be supportive of the environment. The search led to a fabric that is made sustainably in Austria from Beechwood Trees called TENCEL™ Micro Modal. A fabric that is three times softer than cotton, wears better and is breathable with the skin.

In 2017 Katie, together with good friend Nicola, launched Stripe & Stare, a business incorporating knickers and loungewear, all sourced consciously with a transparent product sourcing journey, that unites its wearers and creates a community where women empower each other. We are passionate about our knickers. Our mission is to continue to make the best knickers in the world. This has now expanded to encompass a line of sustainable underwear, lounge and sleepwear - where your day begins and ends. Photo credit: Courtesy of Stripe + Stare
