La Senza's panties are much more significant than the "little nothings" their name suggests. The company targets women age 18 to 35 with its underwear, loungewear, and sleepwear, which are sold through La Senza and Silk & Satin stores.

Overall, La Senza owns and operates more than 300 stores in Canada, and licensees run another 500 stores in 45 other countries. The company was sold to Limited Brands in early 2007. Founded in 1966 as Suzie Shier, the company became one of Canada's best-known lingerie retail chains after it went public under the La Senza name.

It has transformed its products portfolio to include wrinkle-free and stain-resistant fabrics used in making some of its Levi's and Dockers slacks. The Haas family (relatives of founder Levi Strauss) owns LS&CO.
