Thank you from us to you this Christmas 🎄

As our last day at the factory before the Christmas & New Year holiday draws in & the festive feeling takes hold, we wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for your incredible support throughout the past year.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your support & for choosing to shop with us in what has been another topsy-turvy & challenging year for everyone. Every order you've placed, big or small, has meant the world & has helped us to continue doing what we love the most, designing & manufacturing all of our products right here in the UK.
We’re immensely proud of our very hardworking, dedicated team and feel so lucky to have such wonderful people to work alongside where simply nothing is ever too much trouble and who give their hearts & souls to the business.
This year has been particularly exciting & eventful for us. What started out as a temporary relocation, while major works were being carried out on our premises, has turned into a permanent move and yet despite this upheaval, thanks in no small part to the energy of every team member, we’ve been able to continue our journey of growth & evolution.
One of the most obvious changes, which we’re sure you’ll have picked up on, is our gradual transition of the brand from ‘Ella & me’ to ‘Ella Bodi’.
We’ve been so tied up & engrossed with this along with everything else that we’ve not yet been able to fully explain this change to you, so let us try to do that now…
Ella Bodi began as a small sub-brand for our ‘leak proof’ knicker collection, the response to which has been overwhelming and as such plans have been drawn up to expand upon the collection, in terms of other items in the pipeline such as swimwear & larger size ranges. The name also appeared to resonate well with our customers and also our design team. As time went on we came to the conclusion that the name ‘Ella Bodi’ embraced more of what our core product represented in terms of underwear & sleepwear but at the same time would also embody the future expansion of ranges into outerwear & clothing accessories.
Therefore the ‘Ella & me’ name will be slowly phased out in favour of ‘Ella Bodi’ …we’re thrilled to share this new chapter with you and truly appreciate your understanding & continued loyalty during this time. We believe this evolution reflects our commitment to change which will bring a broader product range, collections & experiences in the future.
As a valued customer & member of our extended family, we can also now let you into a little secret, …we’re going to launch a ‘Boxing Day Sale’, to end all Boxing Day sales in order to empty our shelves of ‘Ella & me’ branded knickers, tops, sleepwear etc. so that the new ‘Ella Bodi’ branding can take effect as soon as possible in 2025.
While many of the Ella Bodi products & collections will be identical, the sheer amount of time & waste created in order to unwrap & re-label already packaged ‘Ella & me’ branded garments would be counter productive, so you, as a very valued customer should receive this benefit and please also tell your friends & family to be on standby for 26th!
And while we’re in the mood for divulging secrets, please keep a look out for our first real men’s underwear collection in early 2025.
As mentioned the factory closes tonight, 20th December & everyone deserves time to be with their families, even in this seemingly 24/7 world we now live in, so we’ll be re-opening on Monday 6th January. As such, while online orders can be placed, unfortunately dispatch will be from Monday 6th January onwards, we hope that’s ok with everyone?
We hope you have a truly magical Christmas filled with joy, laughter & precious moments with your loved ones and may the New Year bring happiness, health & prosperity.
Thank you again for being such valued members of the Ella Bodi family. We look forward to continuing to serve you in the New Year and way beyond.
Warmest heartfelt wishes,
The Ella Bodi Factory Team
