Bloody important

28.05 | Menstrual Hygiene Day

As an all-female agency, we at MMBSY believe it's important to talk openly about menstruation. And especially on Menstrual Hygiene Day, when a light is shed globally on the need for proper menstrual hygiene. This essential day is also about wanting to eradicate the myths and taboos surrounding this subject. Which is still very necessary, even to this day. And with these next fun, tasteful and comfortable items, your upcoming period might feel a lot less heavy.

La Redoute

Why May 28th you ask? 28 is also the number of days an average menstrual cycle takes. May is the fifth month of the year and also the average number of bleeding days each month for girls, women or non-binary people all around the world. For many period poverty is real and access to sanitary products, to be used in a safe environment without shame is not a matter of course. Change is therefore long overdue.

Period proof panties

Two of our brands at MMBSY are now launching a period panty, with a positive influence on body, mind and planet. Especially since a woman uses between 10.000 and 17.000 disposable sanitary protection, pads, or tampons in her lifetime, with a high price and an often negative impact on her health.

Chantelle, DIM

With Chantelle two different lines are available, both featuring a hipster and a panty: a minimalistic black one with a graphic border and one with elegant and feminine lace, to make women feel confident, even when menstruating.

DIM introduces a black panty, subtly embellished with the name of the brand, to feel like yourself in. You can choose between the medium and heavy flow panty.

Sweet tooth

Got a sweet tooth, especially when menstruating? Remember you are a force of nature and you should treat yourself to whatever it is you'd like right then and there. But with OKONO there's no guilt or sugar rush when eathing chocolate, since it's keto, vegan, lactose- and gluten free. All OKONO products are available at OKONO.eu.

A period look

Break out of the black leggings and treat yourself to some wide clothes you'll feel comfortable, cute and secure in. Some loose sweaters or pants can make you feel less bloated while a pair of good-looking sunglasses can ease your menstrual headaches.

2026 summer trend: the cortisol closet
This summer we are saying goodbye to neon/brat-summer colours and hello to cortisol-reducing pastels. TikTok has been fixated on the effects that cortisol can have on the body, with terms like ‘cortisol face’ dominating feeds for months now. As everything moves faster than ever, fashion palettes are shifting towards something calmer, quieter and more restrained. Step into this slower state of mind and build your spring and summer wardrobe around colours that feel like ease.

Like mother, like style: celebrate her in every way
Style isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you learn, often without realizing it. From her. The way she throws on a trench coat like it’s effortless. How she always seems to choose just the right scarf. Why she consistently goes for quality over quantity. But it also lives in the moments you shared, long walks filled with stories you still remember, spontaneous trips that stayed with you. This Mother’s Day is about that influence. We celebrate the small things she passed on, the details that shaped your taste, your eye, and your way of living.
