Things you need to know about why we chose Violet Chachki to model our new range of Bettie Page Lingerie:
1. Violet is gender fluid. We did not choose "a man". We chose a gender fluid person that is not represented in the media, and certainly not in the lingerie industry.
2. Deliberately misgendering someone, once informed of their gender identity, is cruel. It also implies that trans women are not accepted. We stand with our trans, gender fluid and non-binary friends, you are all welcome.
5. So many lingerie campaigns are created with the male gaze in mind. Less so than 20-30 years ago, but it's still there. What does using a non-binary model who is not a cis woman, shot by a woman, wearing lingerie created by women, say to you about the male gaze?
3. We also chose to use a non-binary model because the vintage/pinup community has certain issues with gender (also racism, but that's another thread). We've seen comments comparing "modern" women to their "classier" counterparts of the past.
Fetishising plus size women doesn’t mean you respect or support them. They also do not owe you a response just because you’ve rode in to say “well *I* think you are attractive”, under the false pretences that you are the one man on this earth that does.
Also, you can't claim to be a fan of Bettie Page without acknowledging that what she was doing at the time was severely frowned upon. If you expect a brand named after her to do things by the book, you're missing the point of what she stood for.
I realize I didn't mention the points (because they seem obvious to me) that 1) Violet looks stunning, always and 2) her style is so closely aligned with everything Bettie that it's a match made in heaven.
Often, there's an implication that women who had less agency and freedom are "better" than women now. A non-binary model raises questions about how we view pin-ups of the past, and how we talk about images of women today.
4. Drag is about looking at hyper-femininity (or the opposite for Drag Kings). Lingerie is one of the most traditionally "feminine" products one can buy (or at least how this is presented in advertising). Which leads me on to...

To add: there are many sex workers who offer services you are looking for, who you should pay. Talking to women, who you likely do not know, like you would in a fantasy is dehumanising. Try the wild idea of speaking to women like they are not just pieces of meat 🤷🏻♀️

When you scroll through instagram, make sure you like as many images of POC as you do white people. It's absolutely true that photos of POC get less interaction, and it gives companies the [poor] excuse to not push for diversity.
To fight back against ageist stereotypes, we launched our Ageless Fashion campaign in 2017, featuring models in their late 60's rocking our lingerie, and revisited the campaign in 2018. This year, we have worked with the fabulous Rachel Peru

What people think running a lingerie brand involves: playing with lingerie all day.
What running a lingerie brand actually involves: random blokes sending you DM’s of their bum holes while you are trying to eat dinner and you aren’t even surprised anymore.

A (frankly, hot AF) photo we reposted of a customer kicked up quite a fuss on the Bettie Page Lingerie Instagram. Because she has armpit hair. It’s 2019 and grown people are offended by a stranger’s body hair. (1/11)
We don’t do the whole “we’re making THE MOST bra sizes!” Press nonsense, because it’s just not true. But I’m fairly certain we are making more sizes than other independent brands. Because it’s difficult, guys!
I'm, frankly, disgusted at the abusive comments we're getting on IG for re-posting a model who uses a wheelchair, but still has a range of movement in their legs. And I'm even more angry that people get this on a daily basis both online and offline. Stop it.
FOSTA and SESTA is deeply concerning. We fully support sex workers.
We're looking for sex workers that would be interested in being interviewed/quoted in a blog post. Please get in touch if this would be of interest anna
