E5: Amanda McCourt — Eco-friendly underwear championing comfort and community
<p>In today’s Earth Day episode, Susannah catches up with Amanda McCourt, the co-founder of independent underwear brand <a href="https://pantee.co.uk/" target="_blank">Pantee</a>. Launched through kickstarter in 2021 in the midst of the pandemic, Amanda and her sister and fellow co-founder Katie couldn’t find underwear that ticked all of their boxes — sustainably-made without compromising on comfort and style. The game changing thing about Pantee’s designs is that they’re made from materials that already exist (deadstock t-shirts or deadstock fabric) giving them a circular, upcycled origin from the get go. Being big on transparency, body positivity and a realistic approach to sustainability are just a few of the reasons this label has caught not just our attention, but also the likes of Vogue, Drapers, The Observer and the BBC.</p> <p>Deep diving into Amanda’s journey, we speak about navigating and building a supply chain as a small fashion business, her thoughts on representation in the lingerie industry, what building a brand community has looked like for her, and why they’re trying to move sustainability messaging out of their marketing. Curious? Tune in to find out more.</p>
