In 2013, Chrysalis Lingerie became a global viral sensation when the E-commerce launched as the first underwear brand to cater to trans women, and was also the first niche fashion brand with an integral social component for LGBTQ advocacy. This social enterprise model was founded by ReDesign Expert, GG Melina, a social entrepreneur whose passion is creating innovative design solutions to social challenges.
Now in 2020, Chrysalis Lingerie has once again emerged from its cocoon as Chrys.Alis, the first underwear brand to cater to everyone. As a revolutionary show of intersectional inclusivity, Chrys.Alis is a one stop shop for men, women, and everyone in between— inclusive of the trans, gender fluid, and non binary communities. Chrys.Alis is also part of the “made in Hudson” initiative that seeks to create local, sustainable manufacturing, and workforce education, and training in Hudson, NY. “Chrys.Alis is made in Hudson, FOR ALL OF HUDSON”.
