Changing Room Chats

Since 2016 The Pantry Underwear have fitted thousands of bras and uplifted countless 'Pant Pals' both in the bricks & mortar stores and via the online fit service. During these coveted bra fittings, where knowledge is shared and trust inevitably built, conversation topics will arise from lighthearted life hacks & holiday planning, to deeper dives around body positivity & mental health.

As an ever expanding community, we wanted to draw back the curtain on these important changing room chats and curate a series of studio interviews and live events with guests & panellists from various backgrounds to share their wisdom with us and with you.

This season, expect conversations on fertility, finance, contraception, career-switching, breast reduction, childbirth, menopause and more.

Changing perceptions about buying bras is an ongoing pursuit for The Pantry Underwear and their underwear stores and bra fitting services offer a fresh approach to an often intimidating process. Bra fittings are free to book, or simply walk in during opening hours.

We hope that you enjoy our podcast. If you have any feedback or suggestions for future topics you'd love us to tackle, drop us a message at hello@thepantryunderwear.com.

Changing perceptions about buying bras is an ongoing pursuit for The Pantry Underwear founder Eloise Rigby, who opened her first store in Islington in 2016. “Women in the UK seem to place less value on underwear because it’s something that no one else sees."

The former sales & marketing head says there’s also an intergenerational belief that there’s only one place to buy underwear: “Marks and Spencer has cornered the market for decades,” she says. “The nation is so used to that experience, women often believe anything else is out of their price range.”

Now with a portfolio of three physical stores and a thriving e-commerce business, she is breaking the mould when it comes to bra shopping. Her team (AKA Pant Patrol) offers an informal yet informative service with staggering numbers of 5* reviews, inside contemporary and welcoming retail spaces and via the groundbreaking online bra fitting service, from the comfort of home.
