In today’s hyper-connected world, authenticity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a business imperative. Nowhere is this more evident than in the booming Chinese lingerie market, where brands are ditching flashy gimmicks and embracing real stories, real bodies, and real connections. Forget airbrushed models and one-size-fits-all messaging. The new wave of Chinese lingerie brands—from NEIWAI (内外) to Ubras and Clever U—knows that emotional honesty sells.

Take NEIWAI, for example. Since launching in 2012, it’s grown into a $300M+ brand by focusing on inclusivity and comfort. Their 2023 campaign “I Wear What I Feel” featured women of all shapes, ages, and skin tones—not as token diversity, but as the core narrative. The result? A 45% increase in engagement and a loyal community that feels seen.
Ubras took a similar path with its viral 2021 ad “No Wires, No Limits,” which celebrated freedom from physical and societal constraints. That single campaign drove over 10 million views on Douyin and boosted sales by 60% YoY.
Why Authenticity Works in China’s Lingerie Market
Chinese consumers, especially Gen Z and Millennials, crave transparency. They’re skeptical of perfection and reward brands that reflect their lived experiences. According to a 2023 McKinsey report, 78% of Chinese women prefer brands that promote body positivity, and 65% are more likely to buy from those using real customer testimonials.
Here’s how top brands are turning authenticity into ROI:
| Brand | Key Campaign | Engagement Lift | Sales Growth (YoY) |
|---|---|---|---|
| NEIWAI | I Wear What I Feel | 45% | 52% |
| Ubras | No Wires, No Limits | 70% | 60% |
| Clever U | My Body, My Rules | 38% | 44% |
The data speaks volumes: realness drives results. These brands aren’t just selling bras—they’re selling self-acceptance.
How to Build Authentic Marketing That Converts
- Show Real Bodies: Ditch Photoshop. Use unretouched photos and diverse models.
- Tell Real Stories: Let customers share their journeys—on social media, packaging, even ads.
- Be Transparent: Share your sourcing, sustainability efforts, and even challenges.
- Engage, Don’t Broadcast: Respond to comments, host live Q&As, and co-create with fans.
In a market flooded with noise, authenticity cuts through. For Chinese lingerie brands, it’s not about being perfect—it’s about being human. And that’s the most powerful message of all.
