A new online exhibition at the Sydney Powerhouse Museum has included images of lingerie and vibrators as essential to its pictorial story of COVID-19 impact.
The store Honey Birdette is a major luxury lingerie chain in Australia. While the fashion industry was experiencing a massive downturn, Honey Birdette experienced a remarkable increase in online sales.
In particular, their ‘Harley’ vibrator and their ‘Belinda’ and ‘Kukura’ lingerie sets were enormous sellers from the month of March forward.
As soon as lockdown hit, spicing up one’s love life became a priority, including self-pleasuring.
You can see the entire exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum website here.
