About Us.
Ellen Terrie is a female-founded lingerie and intimate lifestyle brand designed to inspire moments of self-love and self-acceptance so you can be yourself and love yourself unapologetically.
Our Story
"I wanted to create a brand that encouraged women to
take some time in their daily routine to put their own needs first, to reclaim their bodies so they could be themselves and love themselves unapologetically. With an understanding that one woman’s path to doing this is different to the next – an ongoing dialogue that evolves with time - I wanted to offer a variety of products, from underwear and sexual wellness items to intimate body care. I wanted to normalise the choices that women were already making about their bodies with products that elevated their daily routines and made them feel empowered.
However, whether it be underwear or sexual wellness accessories, often these products were, and still are, designed by men and catered to the male gaze rather than being designed and marketed with women’s bodies and needs in mind. But women know women’s bodies better than anyone else, am I right? That’s why I decided to seek out products that were designed by female designers and engineers who kept the women who use them in mind, and bring them all together in one place, and make that place safe, straight=up and totally free from stigma.
Quite simply, I wanted to create an online space that not only celebrates women at the forefront, but behind the scenes too."

We also want to create an opportunity for curiosity and conversation to live, and create an environment where you can feel good about getting to know yourself and feel empowered from that place.
