NIVEA recently hosted a breakfast event exploring style confidence, and what it really means for Australian women aged 18-45.
Held at La Porte Space, the event highlighted the importance of the NIVEA Black & White range.
Guests enjoyed a panel discussion with stylist, Jessica Pecoraro, beauty and style editor, Leigh Campbell, and NIVEA general manager marketing and eCommerce, Kate Hensley.
Off the back of partnering with AFC Australian Fashion Week 2026, the brand has released new consumer research revealing that practical concerns over fashion trends are shaping what Australian women wear every day.
NIVEA reported that worries about sweat marks, body odour and clothing stains are causing women to repeatedly reach for the same outfits, leaving more than $1.5 billion worth of clothing unworn.
"For 15 years, NIVEA Black & White has helped women care for both their skin and their clothes," shared Hensley.
"What this research shows is that practical concerns such as sweat marks, stains and odour continue to influence what women choose to wear every day."
"When women feel comfortable and reassured in what they’re wearing, they’re more likely to wear what they love."
