Stephanie Odoms got into lingerie the hard way. As a young mom, she couldn’t find a bra that fit, so she ordered a custom set on Etsy. It arrived badly made and fit worse. She fixed the band herself, then decided to learn to make her own. That decision became Stephie’s Lingerie, where she now sells custom-dyed DIY lingerie kits with a huge range of laces, power meshes, elastics and hardware to choose from.
In this episode we talk about:
Why she moved from custom orders to DIY kits, and what custom lingerie really costs to make
Sourcing materials as a small business, and why suppliers and brands guard their sources so closely
Deadstock lace, AliExpress and Alibaba, and where lingerie materials actually come from
Her new garter belt pattern, the community effort it took to make it, and the underwear pattern she’s working on now
