The innovative brand Nubian Skin redefines what is considered to be nude by launching a collection of lingerie and hosiery; to fulfil the essential underwear needs of women of colour. Nude usually refers to light skin tones and for many women of a pale complexion. It’s easy to go into numerous mainstream and high streets stores to find suitable underwear and hosiery to match your skin tone; the basics of every woman’s wardrobe. However, for women of colour, the lack of skin tone choices can be frustrating. Nubian Skin founder, Ade Hassan, decided it was time for a ‘different kind of nude.’
Nubian Skin is all about ‘Empowering Women Embracing Our Culture’, inspired by Eunice W. Johnson and super model Iman cosmetics, Ade fills a major gap in the market. Based in London, Nubian Skin delivers worldwide and is available to shop for on both ASOS and Nordstorm. Founder Ade Hassan said, “The major frustration that I had was that I wanted to wear something sheer or light in colour and it’s very, very hard to find something that blended.”
The culture of Nubian is to encourage women to love the skin that they are in. Their everyday garments and accentuating sets include seamless briefs and T-Shirt bras in a range of skin tones. Available in four different shades; Caramel, Cafe Au Lait, Berry as well as Cinammon, the brand also caters to plus size women. ‘Perfect for the next time you need a nude pair of hold-ups or maybe a nude strapless bra to go under that stunning white halter neck dress.’
