MyLunaKiss Lingerie Credo?

What is a credo?

A credo is a statement, a belief, an action. MyLunaKiss truly believes this statement:

Women of all shapes, ages and sizes are beautiful and sexy! Confidence = Sexy!


As women, we need to continually invest our self esteem, we need to love our selves daily and appreciate the true beauty of who we are and what we represent.  Remember you define yourself and no one else. You are smart, amazing, unique, romantic, passionate and progressive.

Never let anyone dictate who you should be or could be because you are unique and sexy in your own way.


Wearing lingerie is an added extra to your sensuality and it emphasizes how you feel and the way you express yourself.

Brief Lingerie History: According to the encyclopedia the term lingerie is from the Old French term "linge", meaning “linen,” and the term "lingerie" was introduced into the English language as a verbiage for flagrant intimate apparel. The term“lingerie” was not in common language or discussion until the late 1850s in the USA. Lingerie fashion over the last 100 years has changed from the laced corset “wasp waists” to the uplifted corsets of the early 1990's worn by supermodels and Madonna in music videos and onstage. The main use of lingerie was to support the body in some way.  Lingerie trends have changed over the years but the meaning has not changed - wearing lingerie evokes power, sensuality and confidence.

The corset reinvented!

Our motto at mylunakiss is that lingerie can be worn anywhere - undergarments as outerwear is bellissimo and a corset is so versatile that you can wear it from day to night to midnight. 

Many designers feature corsets as a staple in every collection!


Balmain Spring
Famous rock star fashion designer, Balmain featured the corset as fun and frilly or sleek and sophisticated for Spring paired with ripped jeans or tight leggins.  It seems the corset is more prominent in this decade than it was in the 80's - the main accessory for street fashion thanks to Madonna..Queen of the Corset.


Brief Corset History.

Some sources state that the original corset was created in the 16th century "payre of bodies" or called stays because it covered below the bust all the way to the hips ...but the first corset was worn by Cretan women between 3000 and 1500 BC.

Cretan Woman in a Corset
 To think if I had to wear a corset everyday for my entire life it would be not be so sexy.  I am sure most women were happy when they were asked by the War Industries Board (WIB) during World War I to stop buying corsets because they were made of crinoline which was made of metal. 
Fast foward to now and the corset is sexier and more comfortable than ever to wear. Check out mylunakiss.com featured corset of the day reminiscent of the classic corsets!
