Founded in Switzerland in 1884, Hanro set itself the goal of providing women with more freedom of movement through comfortable, high-quality underwear. Particularly in the 20th century, the company played a major role in helping women to achieve their desire for comfort and elegance – a philosophy that is still reflected in every fibre of the collections today.

What was once conceived as a classic undershirt has developed over the years into a real fashion piece. In the 1990s and 2000s, the spaghetti top was no longer worn only under blouses, but styled as a standalone top – whether with jeans, skirts or under blazers. Numerous celebrities were enthusiastic about the model and made it an integral part of the modern wardrobe: Kate Moss wore it for a Vogue shoot, while Carla Bruni and Alessandra Ambrosio represented the timeless design as Hanro campaign models. In 2008, Sharon Stone impressively showcased the top in a Dior campaign, thereby underlining its iconic status.
