Feminist Hayat Rachi says shes fed up with lingerie that objectifies and sexualizes the female body and is launching a brand of more conservative lingerie, to counter the issue, with the help of a Kickstarter campaign.
Rachis Neon Moon collection plans to release its first line, titled Mon Dieo, soon, which is free of wiring or cleavage boosting padding and is designed for women of all body types, including women who embrace pubic, leg and underarm hair.
In other words, Neon Moon will be about as risqué as it sounds.
Instead of succumbing to the body shaming, sexualized and objectifying lingerie on the market, I used my frustration to start my own brand, Rachi explains on the fundraising site.
Not everything is about being sexy or being objectified for the male gaze, she continued. I found it difficult to find a lingerie brand that shared the same ethos as myself: empowerment, body confidence and the non-objectification of women.
The new line of undergarments, which has antibacterial properties, is fashioned strictly from sustainable bamboo fabric, because lace and satin mold to the wearers body, which might highlight curves.
Rachi hand picked her models for the brand, women who sport healthier and natural bodies, she said, rather than standard fashion models.
Her underwear styles are named with Francophile sounding words, calling them: Coucou, Bof, Tac-Tac and Non. They are really vibrant and fun words to pronounce, which works well with the vibrant colors of the bras and knickers, she said.
New Moon will revolutionize the underwear world by being a body-positive, feminist lingerie brand.
According to her: Feminist lingerie is not a privilege, its a right.

Wait, so women don’t wear dresses, lingerie and heels when alone?
But, but, but they keep saying “it’s for me to feel good, not for some MAN to look at”
it’s the models who are not sexy... a sexy gal can make that lingerie hot...
Lol!!
Exactly.
LOL. Hers is probably bigger than his.
A simple fact that these man haters don't recognize is that if men were not sexually attracted to women, the human race would have died out long ago. To put it bluntly, the race exists because males want to catch and jump females. Not the other way around.
OTOH, these penis hating creatures probably subscribe to the EnviroTard belief that Mother Earth would be so much better without the filth of *man*kind.
