Pip Edwards flaunts slender frame on European getaway

Pip Edwards has revealed she’s slimmer than ever as she lives it up in the European summer.

The P.E. Nation co-founder, 44, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share some candid snaps from her holiday on a Greek island.

The designer took a photo of herself in front of a mirror wearing a skimpy black bikini that flaunted her toned abs and very slender limbs.

She also wore a black and white scarf on her head and statement sunglasses.

Later, she shared pictures of herself enjoying the European sun in the same bikini. 

The glimpse into her holiday comes just days after the athleisure queen’s shock announcement she has taken a ‘step back’ from her hugely popular fashion label P.E Nation.

The designer revealed on Sunday that while she will remain a force at the brand, she will no longer hold the creative director position she took over following the  departure of co-founder Claire Greaves in March. 

‘Following P.E. Nation’s celebrated and successful re/brand at Sydney Fashion Week, I will be stepping back from the role of P.E. Nation’s Creative Director, to pursue new creative challenges,’ Pip wrote in a lengthy Instagram caption.

‘My time leading the brand as Creative Director has been an incredible run, and while I am handing over that role, I am maintaining my P.E. Nation directorship and substantial shareholding/ I am forever grateful for and proud of what we have created, and P.E. Nation will always be in my heart and soul’ she continued. 

‘As the brand grew, I grew. And much like the re/birth of P.E. Nation, it is now time for me to pursue my personal Re/Creation era.’

Pip concluded: ‘I want to thank our loyal, committed and amazing P.E. Nation staff and community, both in Australia and abroad, for a phenomenal 10 years of birthing, living and breathing everything P.E. Nation, and for enabling us to collectively reach unforgettable heights.’

Pip’s athleisure brand P.E Nation confirmed Claire was stepping back from the business in March, with Pip taking over as the sole creative director.

The shock decision ended one of Aussie fashion’s longest lasting relationships, and the friends have since been hit by rumours of a falling out.

‘In P.E. Nation with my business partner – she was the product one. She was an amazing designer and I was more the marketing side of things,’ she said on The Kyle And Jackie O Show.

While she didn’t comment on the circumstances that prompted Claire’s exit, Pip said she has fond memories of working with her former partner as she praised for being an ‘amazing designer’ and gushed over how well they worked together.

 Pip went on to give an insight into how the bu
siness has changed since Claire’s exit, revealing there are now many more people working on the brand’s designs.

‘The two of us got together and really kicked [P.E Nation] off. But now there’s a team of… lots, the design team has got eight [people],’ she told hosts Jackie O Henderson and Kyle Sandilands.

At the time, P.E Nation said in a statement that Claire would be ‘pursuing other creative endeavours’ and taking her career in a new direction.
