Who we are
UNISKINS is a small Dutch label making underclothing that’s built to disappear. We started because we couldn’t find pieces that actually did the job: thin enough to vanish under a shirt, soft enough to forget about, and in a shade that matched our skin. Two years later, this is what we make. Carefully cut, second-skin fabric, six tones to choose from. Nothing more than what’s needed — and nothing less.
HOW IT STARTED
It started with a frustration most of us know but rarely say out loud: nothing fits the way it should under the clothes we actually wear. Lines showing through, fabric too thick, shades that never quite matched. So we started over — from scratch — with one question in mind: what would underclothing look like if it truly disappeared?
What we believe
- Comfort isn’t an extra. If you’re still aware of it after ten minutes, something’s off.
- Nude is not one colour. We design for skin in every tone, not for a single idea of it.
- Quiet over loud. No screaming logos, no statement pieces. The piece should speak through how it feels, not through how it shouts.
How we make it
Slowly, and only when it’s ready. Each piece takes us months — sometimes years — before it leaves our hands. We test fabrics on real bodies, in real days, under real clothes. If it doesn’t feel right after a full day of wear, it goes back to the drawing board. Small releases, no compromises.
What you can expect
Thank you for reading this far. UNISKINS is small, careful, and still finding its shape. If something here resonates, or if you have questions about a piece, write us at support@uniskins.com — a real person will write back. We’d rather have one conversation than a thousand impressions.
about us
We started UNISKINS in 2022, after years of not finding the underwear we actually wanted to wear. This is the short version of who we are, how we got here, and how we make the pieces we make.
What we do
- We make underclothing in six skin tones — the layer that sits closest to you, in a shade that's closer to your own. Our pieces are thin, soft, and cut to sit flat under what you wear, so they're easy to forget about for the rest of the day. That's really the whole idea: underclothing that does its job and then steps out of the way.
- Before UNISKINS, we kept running into the same things: bands that printed through a t-shirt, lace that itched by lunchtime, and a row of "nude" options that didn't look much like anyone's skin. None of it was bad on its own — it just wasn't what we needed at the bottom of the stack. So at some point we stopped looking and started prototyping our own.
- A few things we keep coming back to: comfort isn't an extra — if you're still aware of it after ten minutes, something's off. Nude is not one colour, so we design for skin in every tone, not for a single idea of it. And we'd rather be quiet than loud: no big logos, no statement pieces. The piece should speak through how it feels, not through how it shouts.
How we do it
We design from the Netherlands, source our fabrics in Italy, and produce with a small team in China. We only work with certified materials — OEKO-TEX and similar standards — so what sits against your skin has been tested for what shouldn't be in it. Construction is seamless, so there are no edges to print through, dig in, or scratch. Each shade gets matched by eye, and every fit is worn for weeks before it leaves the studio — over different bodies, under different clothes, across a normal day. If something doesn't sit right, we go back and fix it before it goes out. That part can be slow; some pieces take months, others longer. And that's ok, because it's the only way the end result feels like it should.
