Underdressed

The podcast where we talk about the clothes under our clothes and exactly how they get made. I'll explore the art, practice and technical execution of intimate apparel in order to understand what happens behind the scenes in this industry and exactly how designers balance creativity with functionality, specifically as it pertains to our delicate yet hard-working base layers.
