the story of Adore By S
Adore By S isn't just about lingerie, it's about something so much deeper.
I've never believed lingerie was just what we wear underneath. For me, it's always been something more. Something personal. Something powerful. Adore By S didn't just begin with lace and fabric, it began with a dream to make a difference.
I grew up watching my mum struggle to find bras that actually fit, that didn't dig in or make her feel like an afterthought. She used to joke that I should become a bra designer one day, just to fix it for women like her.
By fifteen, I was wearing a 10DD. By eighteen, a 10E/10F. And I was facing the same struggles she did. Overpriced lingerie that felt out of reach, or plain and uninspiring pieces that didn't celebrate my body. It was like the world was quietly saying that beauty wasn't made for bodies like ours.
And then, in 2016, life shifted. A car accident left me with a lifelong back injury, months of bed rest, about a year unable to work. It was one of the hardest seasons of my life, but it also gave me space to dream again.
hi, i'm shorina!
I remembered that younger version of me. The one who wanted to create something meaningful for women. Something that would help them feel seen.
One day, while my back was aching and my spirit felt low, I slipped into a piece of lingerie I had made for myself. And something shifted.
The fabric wrapped around my body like love. I stood taller. I felt strong again. I felt sexy again. I felt me again. That moment changed everything.
Since then, my body has continued to evolve with life, through growing older, carrying babies, and dancing between sizes 6 and 16. My shape has softened, shifted, and changed, but what I've learned is that no size or season defines me. Every curve, every change, every version of me has been worthy of love and celebration. And that's exactly why I offer lingerie that moves with you, through every chapter of your life, because beauty and confidence should never depend on a number on a tag.
In 2017, Adore By S was born with one mission. To make beautiful, confidence-boosting lingerie accessible to every woman. Not just for special occasions. Not just for certain sizes. Not just if you could afford it.
What started as a few hand-sewn pieces has now touched the lives of thousands of women across Australia and beyond. But at its core, Adore By S remains the same: a small, family-run brand created to help women feel empowered, celebrated, and completely at home in their own skin.
So when you shop with us, know this. You're not just buying lingerie. You're supporting a dream. A mission. And a promise that every woman deserves to feel beautiful.
