Panty by Post Profile: Natalie G.

When she’s not communicating with customers, developing international partnerships and generally running the show, Natalie, our fab founder, is busy playing mom to her six-year-old schnoodle, Henri; loving all things French (she’s a self-confessed Francophile); and blending up all sorts of delicious green smoothies. Ooh la la!

Hi Natalie! Tell us what you do at PBP.

What don’t I do!? I’ve always been the kind of person that doesn’t mind the dirty work (please don’t take that literally; my panties are always clean!) and, as PBP grows, I still do a lot of it. The corner office is a bit further off into the future – but I can see it.

What are you wearing (under your pants) today?

A Hanky Panky thong from our bridal line. It’s blue and super soft, and it works with any outfit (no embarrassing lines, ladies!). I usually top off my panties with dresses during the day and change into yoga pants while I catch up on work at night.

Do you wear underwear with your lululemons?

Yes! One of our signature line thongs!

Describe your perfect pair.

In my mind, variety is the spice of lingerie; then again I probably have the best underwear drawer in Canada. The perfect pair does not move around, is soft, feminine and does not show through your clothes. I love floral prints and often wear hipsters.

Ever been caught with your pants down?

Well, there was the time I was in New York City studying dance and I walked over a hot-air grate. I wasn’t wearing panties. This was not a highlight of my trip.

What’s the best/worst thing about working with lingerie?

The best thing about working with underwear is that most people get really excited when I tell them what I do. The worst is that I have had my business copied, which is a hard pill – or panty – to swallow.

What’s the first thing you do in the morning?

Reach for my iPhone and check emails. Not sexy, I know.

Boxers or briefs?

Briefs are super sexy and Euro; then again, I like Speedos on my men.

Ever see a pair of underwear abandoned in the street? What do you suppose happened?

Sounds sketchy. Maybe their owner had a fling and left before their lover woke up, neglecting to pull on their panties and losing them while running for the bus.
