All Skinwear is a Barcelona-based brand that supports all genders and designs underwear for all people. The label is not just a clothing brand, but a project that promotes inclusion and limitless gender expression and firmly believes in the power of community.
origins
All Skinwear was founded in Barcelona in 2021 by Maria Cabré and Mireia Palomeque Graells, the brand’s Creative Director and Product Manager. Both have years of experience in the fashion industry and have previously worked at large companies such as Inditex and Sophia Webster. After reading and learning about the problems arising from gender classification and realizing that so many people suffer from having to choose a gender, Maria and Mireia decided to start a project to help society to help become more inclusive.
“We believe in people and not in separations. It seems that everything must be done for what society considers to be male or female. We want a united society where there is no body classification. We are mind-shifters and supporters of people, regardless of their gender and background. We want to teach people that gender mapping can be fluid,” says Cabré. The initiative was awarded the Premio Talento Cambra 2021 in the Equality and Solidarity category by the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce last year.
development
The brand’s aim is to offer underwear for those looking for less conventional pieces that cannot be found in other brands. All Skinwear’s first underwear collection was launched in September 2021 and includes unique pieces with a minimalist and timeless style, designed and made in Barcelona using local materials.
All the bottoms are available with two different cuts: A, with a flat front and B, with volume in the front for those who need capacity in the front and also with an inner pocket to easily insert a packer, a prosthesis that suits everyone allows to simulate a bulge. In a move away from conventional sizing, All Skinwear has also developed its own sizing system.
In line with its inclusive manifesto, the brand has also launched All Magazine, a digital space dedicated to raising and normalizing awareness of various issues related to gender and the transition process.
“It is the voice of a community and a movement that is growing by the day. In addition, it has a didactic purpose for all those potential customers who do not yet know much about gender issues arising from the imposed binary system,” says Maria Cabré.
Current
In February 2022, the All Skinwear underwear collection was expanded with four new models. The brand also offers a streetwear collection with urban-style clothing and accessories, as well as a swimwear collection. The products are available internationally through All Skinwear’s own online shop.
