About the Brand
NUDEA is a British B Corp-certified underwear and sleepwear brand redefining the foundations of fashion through a balance of comfort, fit, and environmental responsibility. Founded by Priya Downes, a former LVMH and Burberry executive with a background in sustainability via the UN and World Bank, NUDEA is committed to creating elevated everyday essentials using natural and recycled materials, with an inclusive, wellness-led design approach. Their bras prioritise support and comfort with a modern sizing experience, including innovative tools like their Fit Tape™ and virtual fittings—because at NUDEA, fit comes first.
As one of the few B Corp underwear brands in the UK, NUDEA’s approach to sustainability is data-driven, transparent, and circular. They use real-time product-level carbon tracking via Vaayu, offset locally through PNZ Carbon, and have expanded their recycling programme to cover 51% of online bra sales in 2024. With 83% of garments now made from natural or certified recycled fabrics, a growing take-back scheme, and transparent factory benchmarks for energy, water, and waste, NUDEA champions slow fashion that supports both people and planet.
