1/4Owners in our contribution
An owner’s mindset is characterized by a powerful sense of freedom, autonomy and responsibility. It covers three areas: a bias towards speed in decision-making and execution, an antipathy to bureaucracy, and a sense of financial consciousness.
2/4Radically collaborative
We create strong and mutually beneficial relationships with our suppliers and wholesale customers. Geographical, hierarchical, generational and professional boundaries are erased. Everyone helps facilitate the cross-pollination of our groups, allowing us to innovate in ways others cannot.
3/4Always transparent
We use transparency as an enabler for internal and external trust and confidence. With our customers, we share what we are striving for and do not claim to be perfect. We show that we are willing to improve. Letting our customers know how our values influence our decisions draws them closer and differentiates us from other fashion retailers.
4/4Led by our customers
We obsess over the “front line.” We are curious about every aspect of the customer experience and the world of lingerie in general. The consumer’s voice is central to every product innovation we make. We listen. We change. We listen again. We’re engaged in a constant conversation with our customers.
