Life is Better in Knickerbox

The Challenge

Knickerbox was ready for a shift. After launching in July 2024, the community began to grow, and within just six months, we identified an opportunity to carve out a niche, not just through BAU social content, but by redefining the brand’s identity. We wanted to go beyond just selling lingerie and create a space where women could come together, support each other, and share their stories.

The goal? To reposition Knickerbox as a brand for women. One that acknowledges the realities of womanhood and starts conversations around the issues that matter. Life is Better in Knickerbox was born out of this vision, aiming to celebrate women and their everyday lives while redefining Knickerbox’s role in their world.

The Outcome

The impact went far beyond engagement metrics. Knickerbox’s leadership embraced the shift in brand positioning, with the entire board fully aligned on this new direction.

Brand Evolution – Inspired by the campaign, Knickerbox introduced a new tagline: “Women need an ally.”

Stronger Values Alignment – The brand made a bold decision to remove two of their largest stocked brands that did not align with their new female-led ethos.

Future Momentum With the success of this initial phase, we’re now working closely with Knickerbox on new ideas to keep the momentum going and deepen their impact.

As an extension of Life is Better in Knickerbox, we launched Own Your Cycle — a sub-campaign designed to normalise open conversations about menstruation and body changes. Against a backdrop of ongoing stigma (with only 26% of women feeling comfortable discussing periods at work), Own Your Cycle empowered women to embrace their cycles with confidence. Through educational content on body changes, bra comfort, and self-care, we deepened audience engagement while reinforcing Knickerbox’s body-positive ethos and commitment to creating an open, supportive community.
