Elevated Intimates

Luxurious undergarments that are soft to the touch, good for your body, and easy on the planet.
 
Chosenwoven was founded by two second-time founders: Olga Kapustina, cult fave dress designer from the aughts, and current lecturer in sustainability and materiality, and Monica Botkier of Botkier New York, a contemporary accessories brand.
 
Chosenwoven makes luxurious knitted lingerie and undergarments with fine merino wool. Their yarns are soft as silk and perform better than cotton. They created the ultimate comfort without the use of synthetics like spandex or nylon. Their garments are thermoregulating, antimicrobial and the knitting process is zero waste. Chosenwoven redefines what luxury means for your most intimate parts and brings exciting innovation to the intimate’s landscape. 
 

Most underwear and athletic apparel is based in petroleum and plastic. Recycled water bottle brands are actually worse as they shed even more microplastics into the water supply with less stable materials. Microplastics have found a way into our bodies through the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the clothes we wear. “Plastics contain and leach hazardous chemicals, including endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that threaten human health,” according to Endocrine.org. Chosenwoven is leading the evolution away from spandex, plastics and fossil fuels in their intimates and beyond.

Wool is a natural, sustainable and renewable fiber that has been used centuries for its remarkable qualities and it is completely underutilized in fashion today due to the high demand of low-cost synthetics that have taken over the market.

Chosenwoven has developed sophisticated knitting techniques that are engineered to offer support without feeling suffocating. Blending fine Merino wool with super sustainable and soft Tencel gives the wearer the ultimate experience in softness, dryness, and thermoregulation. Naturally antimicrobial and water wicking, their garments need less washing and less maintenance. Better for you and better for the planet. Chosenwoven is truly a luxury for your most intimate parts.
