Luxuriously soft our knickers are made from Lenzing Modal that is made from beech tree cellulose that is spun into a yarn.

The really special thing about our products is that the fabrics feel incredible and luxuriously soft. They are also durable, breathable and moisture wicking.

Sizing & design detail

We have spent a huge amount of time developing the patterns to suit women of a huge range of sizes from chest size 32-42, A-G cup.

Our research and testing process showed us that women with larger cups, often had scarring of more variable shapes and positions on the chest. For that reason, larger sizes have a proportionately slightly deeper flat-side band than smaller sizes - see size chart below. The flat band is designed to provide even, super soft compression across scar tissue.

Materials

The bra and knicker set is made from Lenzing Modal that is made from beech tree cellulose that is spun into a yarn. It requires 10-20% less water than the production of cotton. Growing beech trees is a much less agriculturally intensive process than cotton because it doesn’t require irrigation. Beech trees also grow in Europe – so the raw materials are close to home. TENCEL™ Modal is produced in Austria in a net zero carbon factory. In addition up to 95% of the production materials are recycled.

-unobra composition:
80% Tencel Modal, 15% polyester, 5% elastane

How it works

We are determined that -uno does not become part of a fast-fashion, high waste culture that is so destructive to the planet. We also want to support small scale British manufacturing, cutting down on transport costs and emissions.

For that reason, we have decided to follow a model that many small, designer and boutique brands have tried and tested : Making their products to order in small batches. In that way, we make exactly what you order, with no waste, but we get it at a much lower price point than a bespoke or made to order on demand service.

That means, we will be placing regular manufacturing orders spaced throughout the year and sending out orders in batches – so it may take a little longer to arrive than something you order from a high street shop – but we hope you’ll agree that these principles are worth waiting for! Also this allows us to gauge demand accurately and respond to needs. If you want us to develop bigger sizes/other colours, that’s what we’ll do!
