Garterblog · Special Project

Who owns the world’s major lingerie brands?

An interactive ownership map of groups, stakes and ownership changes across the global lingerie market.

Select a company or brand to explore the group structure, current owner and details of recent acquisitions and ownership changes.

The project works on mobile, but the full ownership map is easier to explore on a larger screen.

Beyond the ownership map

Another way to read the market

First, who owns a specific brand. Then, the scale of disclosed businesses, key ownership transitions and the structure of our research sample.

Business scale

Companies at scale

Circle area is proportional to disclosed annual revenue. This is not a ranking of lingerie sales: company reporting scopes differ and are disclosed separately.

2011—2026

How ownership changed

An editorial selection of key ownership transitions, not a complete M&A chronology. The 2011 Chantal Thomass event is included as necessary context for the current structure.

Research sample

Who sits behind the brands

Percentages refer only to brands included in this research, not market share.

Update

What changed

Methodology. For every figure we record the reporting period, metric scope, source and verification date. Revenue figures are not always directly comparable across companies.

How we calculate and verify the data

Revenue is shown in the currency and fiscal period published by each company. Figures are not always directly comparable across groups; the scope of each metric is disclosed in the selected node card.

Ownership is verified using official corporate pages, financial reports, public registries and transaction announcements. Local distribution arrangements are not included in this version of the map.

Bubble sizes normalize currencies to USD using fixed rates dated 2 Oct 2026. This is a visual scale reference only, not a restatement of financial reporting.

All research sources

Sources are grouped by company. For opaque or disputed structures, the map does not assert an ultimate owner without sufficient public evidence.
