We present a study of the early UV/Optical emission of the stripped-envelope supernovae based on a one-dimensional, Lagrangian model that solves the hydrodynamics and radiation transport in an expanding ejecta. The models are compared with observations to constrain the physical properties of the progenitor star, such as radius and mixing of radioactive nickel synthesized during the explosion. In particular, we present models for the early emission of the type IIb SN 2011dh and the Type Ib SN 2008D.
