Listen Later

Couldn’t wait for the next installment of Made For Us? Well, here’s an additional episode just for launch week. My guest is Ade Hassan, founder and CEO of the lingerie brand Nubian Skin. Founded in 2014, the company brought a simple yet innovative product to the fashion industry - nude lingerie and hosiery for women with darker skin tones. In 2017, Ade was awarded an MBE for services to fashion in recognition of Nubian Skin’s inclusive and innovative mission to “redefine nude.”

In this episode Ade discusses:

  • How she built the company despite having no fashion industry experience
  • The huge demand for Nubian Skin products in the entertainment industry
  • How she thinks about the size of the market for Nubian Skin
  • Her advice for companies looking to develop more inclusive products
