New: Pillow Talk with Hannah

Hi everyone!

My name is Hannah McKnight and I am excited to be a part of XDress Lingerie! XDress has been a part of my life, and a part of my lingerie drawer for almost twenty-five years... back when they were called Après Noir. Does anyone remember those days? Discovering XDress was one of the most significant and affirming moments of my life. I have been wearing panties and lingerie for my entire life, and finding XDress Lingerie was like finding gold at the end of the rainbow. I am sure we can all relate to falling in love with a beautiful bra and panty set and then feeling discouraged and sad when it didn't quite fit right. I am also confident we can all relate to feeling that we were the only ones on the planet who daydreamed of camis and garters and stockings and corsets and were bored of traditional male underwear.

But XDress Lingerie changed my world in a way I had never imagined. I stumbled upon an advertisement which I reread again and again to make sure I wasn't imagining things. Lingerie for me? Lingerie designed for me? For my body? My fingers trembled with excitement and fear as I called and asked for a catalog. A few days later a glossy catalog arrived in my mailbox. I was stunned by what I was reading. Professional photos of people like myself wearing some of the most beautiful lingerie I had ever seen. There were sizing charts designed for me. Everything in those pages was for me. I put in my first order for a matching camisole and panty set with a strawberry pattern. I counted the days until it arrived and when it finally did I slipped into the first pair of panties that was designed for me.

Fast forward to today and my lingerie drawers are filled with bras and bodysuits and garter belts and camis and panties from XDress. Although what I wear hasn't changed, my life has. I have been active in the non-binary community for almost fifteen years now and I blog and post pictures and random thoughts on my website (hannahmcknight.org) but writing a feature for XDress is absolutely a highlight for me. We are thrilled to introduce Pillow Talk to you. Pillow Talk is a feature where we, well, talk. We'll talk about our passion for lingerie, our dreams, our fears, and all the emotions that this side of us can bring. Let's face it, this side of us doesn't make life or relationships necessarily easy, but it does make getting dressed (or undressed) much more fun and more beautiful. I want your questions. I want to know what you're thinking about. I want to talk about lingerie with you. I want to talk about you and your life. I want to share your fears and joys that who we are can bring. Most importantly, I want to offer support and encouragement and reassurance that you are not alone. Please add a comment and let me know what we should talk about.

Love,

Hannah
