Dive into Sustainability and Style: Karlie Place's Exclusive Q&A with Londre Bodywear
Londre Q&A with Karlie Place
From your perspective, what inspired Karlie X Londre to launch this collab?
K: Me 🤝 Londre Marketing 🤝 Being a little Cheeky
Share why the collaboration is meaningful to you and why you're excited to share it with the community.
K: Londre Bodywear has easily become my favorite company. Not only do they promote sustainable practices from packaging to product, but the negation of overconsumption and dedication to eco-responsibility is built into the foundation of the brand. They have become a haven for people of all body types and are not afraid to tastefully joke about the realities of being a modern-day woman. I resonate with the stories told by founders Ainsley and Hannah and am proud to support another woman-run company. And most of all, I simply never feel better in a swimsuit than when I'm wearing Londre.
What do you want people to feel when they wear this suit?
K: I envision it as the swimwear everyone chooses, no matter how they're feeling about their bodies that day. On days when my body image feels a bit shaky, I instinctively reach for my Londre Suits. There's something magical about it that instantly uplifts my self-perception. While I do have swimsuits reserved for those ultra-confident moments, Londre stands apart. Time and time again, Londre proves to be my reliable favorite.
Why is it important to shop sustainably?
K: In a consumer-driven world, achieving 100% responsible consumption is indeed challenging - especially since that responsibility is placed on the buyer. Londre's commitment to sustainability, particularly during high-sales events like Black Friday, is commendable. Instead of succumbing to the pressures of massive discounts, they prioritize educating their consumers about the ethical implications of overproduction. Given that the fashion industry plays a significant role in the global climate crisis, it's refreshing to see a brand like Londre refusing to compromise quality for cost. Their dedication to ethical practices makes me proud to support them.

What was the process like collaborating with one another and making a statement through fashion?
K: Collaborating with Londre has been a profound journey for me. Their unwavering commitment to body positivity and empowering all body types has touched my heart deeply. The Caribbean photoshoot, a highlight of our collaboration, wasn't just another campaign. It was a reflection of Londre's true essence—a brand that not only celebrates bodies but also actively contributes to our world by supporting efforts like coral reef replanting in efforts to heal our oceans.
