Summary

Katie Lopes and Nicola Piercy founded the sustainable knickers brand, Stripe and Stare, back in 2017. Today, the London-based company is distributed globally—here in the U.S. online and at retailers like Shopbop and Bloomingdales—and just released its most sustainable line yet: The B Edit, which is 100% biodegradable. But how did this duo come together to create a line beloved by bums around the world? Nicola spent her first life in marketing, where she built an online platform that sold houses. She also managed a chain of cooking schools. Katie, on the other hand, spent a number of years in production at Channel 7 in Sydney, Australia, before opening a fashion boutique in the UK. And for the rest of the story, you’re going to have to tune in!
