Lingerie, the hidden confidence booster, has the magic to awaken a woman’s inner charm and grace. These exquisite pieces aren’t just about hugging your curves; they’re here to embrace your spirit, making you feel as bold as a queen.
On the hunt for something extra special? Say hello to Nubian Skin, the genius behind the world of lingerie. Back in 2016, Ade Hassan, the mastermind behind Nubian Skin, proudly received the Great British Entrepreneur Award for her outstanding work in introducing Nubian Skin to the world.
Fast forward to 2017, and Ade was honored with an MBE at Buckingham Palace for her invaluable contributions to the world of fashion. Her unwavering dedication to redefining the concept of nude in fashion earned her this prestigious recognition. In 2019, Ade graced the stage with a captivating TEDx Talk, sharing the inspiring journey of bringing Nubian Skin to life and the pursuit of her dreams. You can catch her talk below! Then, in 2022, Ade joined forces with Natalie Johnson, a breast care surgeon from The Royal Marsden. This dynamic collaboration led to the launch of the UK’s very first Softie Breast Forms, specially designed for mastectomy patients of color through Nubian Skin’s innovative approach.
Nubian Skin presents a captivating array of collections that are nothing short of extraordinary: The enticing Naked Collection, the cozy Cotton Collection, the alluring Mesh Collection, the vivacious Jaiye Collection, and the elegant Rafat Collection. Within these collections, one can discover an array of undergarments, including bras, panties, bodysuits, slips, and even convenient bundles for a complete and stylish wardrobe.
Nubian Skin’s collections boast a delightful range of colors to cater to every taste. From the luscious Berry, a vibrant reminder of summer’s juicy fruits, to the spicy allure of Cinnamon, there’s a hue for every mood. Think about the inviting warmth of Caramel and revel in the timeless elegance of Café au Lait. These exquisite shades allow you to craft your own style and express your sensuality with flair.
Ade’s brainchild introduced an absolute game-changer to the market. Nubian Skin didn’t just create a product; it sparked a revolution. Their mission to redefine the concept of “nude” and promote inclusivity sent shockwaves across the industry, inspiring a wave of change.
The evidence of their impact can be seen in the remarkable milestones Nubian Skin has reached. They’ve graced the pages of numerous renowned fashion and lifestyle magazines, their creations adorning the wardrobes of major productions in both the West End and on Broadway. And, if that’s not impressive enough, they were handpicked to provide the foundational garments for none other than Beyoncé’s Formation World Tour! Imagine having a nude bra and skin-toned hosiery as wardrobe essentials, at least in theory. However, for many women of color, finding suitable skin-tone hosiery and lingerie was a challenge they faced daily. Ade Hassan, the mastermind behind Nubian Skin, grew increasingly frustrated with the limited choices of skin-tone undergarments to complement her ever-expanding wardrobe. In response, she took a bold step towards redefining the concept of “nude.”
This marked the launch of Nubian Skin, offering a meticulously curated selection of lingerie and hosiery designed to cater to the essential underwear needs of women of color. With its headquarters situated in the vibrant city of London, Nubian Skin doesn’t limit itself to a single location. Instead, it aspires to expand its presence and make its offerings accessible to a global audience. The future promises to be more inclusive and fashionable, all thanks to Nubian Skin.
