I’m head of lingerie design and product direction at M&S and responsible for the research and product direction of our bras, knickers, sleepwear and hosiery.

The first years of my career were spent designing everything from dresses, to shoes. Little did I know when I was asked, 17 years ago, to help M&S to boost the ‘fashionability’ of the underwear ranges, that I would embark on a passionate love affair with lingerie that has since become my career!

Today, I head up a team of design experts, or ‘creative masterchefs’ as I call them, who scour the world for new ideas and ensure that we develop market-leading lingerie that our customers will love.

Here I’ll be writing about ‘what lies beneath’ in the world of M&S lingerie, from inspiration and innovation, with a few personal tales along the way!
