Every woman wants to be beautiful. But beauty has a different personality in every country and region. It is as diverse as all the colours of the rainbow. At Wacoal, we understand this. That’s why we listen to the voices of women from around the world and address every woman’s needs. In India, we have been successfully doing this since we first opened here in 2015. As the Indian woman has evolved over the last decade, we have been a part of her journey and have evolved with her too.
Our mission? To contribute to society by helping women express their beauty, in their own unique way…not just by looking great on the outside, but by feeling beautiful on the inside too!
Making Indian Woman Feel Beautiful for Over a Decade
We presented our complete collection to the Indian woman for the first time at High Street Phoenix in Mumbai. Our goal was simple. We wanted to meet the needs of modern Indian women who wanted elegant, high-quality, comfortable lingerie.
Since then, our 18 Exclusive Brand Stores, 46 Large Format stores and 80 multi-brand outlets have made shopping for our premium lingerie easy and accessible for women in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, and Chennai. Yet, Wacoal’s audience is not only restricted to India’s big cities. Our stores and e-commerce platforms have also taken the ease of shopping for high-quality lingerie to India’s Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities! We understand and reflect the Indian woman’s desire to feel beautiful in all different shapes and shades.

How Our Global Heritage Shapes Our Story
While Wacoal has been in India for the last 10 years, we were first founded in Japan in 1946. That was one year before India became an independent country! Over the next 79 years, we moved from Asia to America in the 1970s and to Europe in the 1990s before we came to India in 2015.
Our innovations in intimate wear have played a big role in making us a trusted name in India and throughout the world. A key driver of this innovation has been Wacoal’s Human Science Research Centre in Kyoto, which was first set up in 1964. Every year, the Centre collects data from thousands of women to understand their bodies and examine how these change over time. This extensive research determines how Wacoal’s lingerie is designed and delivered around the world.
How Products Are Tailored for Indian Women
Wacoal’s complete lingerie collection in each country is different. It is always personalized to the needs of women in that region. Our offerings in India are customized to cater to every woman’s lifestyle and wardrobe here. We offer:
· Everyday Bras: T-shirt bras, wire-free comfort bras, and seamless bras perfect for daily wear.
· Luxury & Bridal Lingerie: Beautiful lace bras, balconette styles, and matching sets ideal for special occasions.
· Panties: A wide variety of styles including bikini, hipster, high-waist, and seamless panties that prioritize comfort and hygiene.

Why Wacoal Stands Out in India
While we do customize our offerings for women in India, we believe that there are four factors that make us a choice unlike any other in this region:
#1. We create the perfect fit and comfort. Wacoal sets itself apart through its focus on fit. We don’t just offer you Wacoal’s Fit Guide online, we also train consultants across our stores to help customers find the right bra size, which is a crucial but often overlooked aspect of lingerie shopping. A well-fitted bra can make a huge difference in posture, comfort, and even how your clothes look.
#2. We use premium quality materials. Designed using innovative Japanese technology, we use advanced fabrics, which feel soft on the skin while offering excellent durability and support. Our seamless bras, soft lace, and lightweight designs are tailored for everyday comfort, especially important in India’s diverse climate.
#3. We deliver an elegant, minimalist aesthetic. Rather than overly embellished designs, we focus on clean lines, understated elegance, and timeless silhouettes. This appeals to modern Indian women who want lingerie that’s both functional and stylish.
#4. We believe in size inclusivity. Understanding that Indian body types vary widely, we offer a broad range of sizes, from petite to plus-size, ensuring every woman finds her perfect fit. We also frequently educate our customers on correct sizing, so that they have all the knowledge they need to buy the right lingerie.

Making Lingerie Backed by Science
Our approach is guided by the knowledge that the best designed lingerie is not just a work of art, but also of science. Here is the rigorous quality control supported by innovative technology that backs every piece of lingerie offered to you at Wacoal India:
· AZO Dye Test – This test checks that there are no harmful chemicals or dyes in the fabric
· Dimensional Stability Test (ISO standards) – This checks the wear and tear of the garment after minimum 20 washes
· Appearance Test – checks that the fabric appearance, colour etc. does not fade after minimum 20 washes
· Tensile Test – Tests the strength and recovery of all the elastic used in the bra, ensuring durability
· A Fabric Performance Stretch Tester checks elasticity
· A Bursting Strength Tester measures the strength of every product
· A Frays and Tears check-up concludes the process
Together, these measures demonstrate both our commitment to deliver excellence and offer you the utmost comfort, all backed by science.
Empowering Women Beyond Fashion
Wacoal’s mission goes beyond lingerie. We understand that every woman is different and believe every woman should be comfortable in her own skin. Body positivity is at the heart of the lingerie we create, which is reflected in our inclusive sizing and breathable fabrics. We aspire to give women the freedom to just be.
Globally, Wacoal is also involved in women’s health initiatives, including supporting breast cancer awareness programs. We are committed to offering support and empowering women at every stage of life.
In a market overflowing with fast fashion and mass-produced lingerie, what sets us apart is our ability to truly understands women — their bodies, their needs, and their lifestyles. With our legacy of craftsmanship and a focus on fit, we offer not just lingerie, but confidence in every thread.
So, whether you're looking for your first premium bra or planning to refresh your innerwear drawer, visit our store or explore our collections online, and experience the difference of lingerie that’s made with purpose and passion.
