Why underwear?

I got asked the question last week why underwear, with an option to collect anything why lingerie?

Something believe it or not that I haven’t asked myself before but it struck me as interesting question. I started to investigate and after some soul searching and conversations the answer became clear, escapism.

On the outside of a nine till five job dressed in suits or even smart work clothes. This secret pastime can be used as escapism, when you check into the corporate office or even to the office which tries to be cool and encourages personalities although not to much as you still need to blend. Then underwear can be the perfect vehicle to become the free person you want to be... Through the garment closest to our skin I believe we can be anything we want to be and no one else need know unless we choose to invite them into the inner circle.
