Our 
Story

Founded in 1997 by Andrew and Sarah Charlesworth, Intimates Lingerie LLP is a family-owned agency and distribution company specialising in premium international brands across Lingerie, Swimwear, Resort Wear, and Sleepwear. With nearly three decades of industry expertise, our mission has remained consistent: to bring exceptional quality and refined style to the UK and Ireland markets.

​

At the heart of the business is Sarah Charlesworth, whose passion, vision, and leadership have been instrumental in shaping Intimates Lingerie into a respected name in the industry. Her deep knowledge of the sector and dedication to brand integrity continue to guide the company’s strategic direction and values.

​

We proudly work with mid to premium retailers, offering tailored wholesale distribution and concession services across both physical stores and digital platforms. Our collaborative approach ensures long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with our retail and brand partners.

​

In addition to our agency and distribution work, we operate successful retail ventures for HANRO, Luxe Leopard, and Panos Emporio, including a flagship store in South Molton Street, Harrods & multiple concessions across the UK and Ireland, and dedicated online stores.

​​

Looking to the future, the business is evolving with the next generation. Sophie Charlesworth and Ben Charlesworth are actively involved, bringing fresh energy, innovation, and a continued commitment to the company’s values. Together, we are building a future-focused, family-led business prepared to adapt and grow in an ever-changing retail landscape.
