1. Accessibility & Navigation

Decisions

• Large, readable base font for comfortable scanning.

• Integrated microphone icon for voice search, supporting multilingual users and people with motor or cognitive limitations.

• High-contrast color system to meet accessibility standards.

Rationale

The goal is to remove barriers. Clear typography, voice input, and verified contrast create an interface that works for more people.

2. Visual Inclusivity

Decisions

• Imagery features people of mixed body shapes, skin tones, and styles.

• Photos avoid gendered aesthetics and follow a soft, neutral palette.

Rationale

Representation is delivered visually, without forcing identity labels.

3. Category Structure: Shop by Body Need

Decisions

• No “Men” or “Women” sections.

• Product discovery organized by functional needs:

– Tops

– Everyday underwear

– Period-friendly options

– Pregnancy-supportive fits

– Sensitive-skin fabrics

– Support and compression styles

Rationale

Including users who may be pregnant or menstruating but don’t identify with traditional categories. It avoids misgendering and reduces friction by focusing on the body, not assumptions.

4. Sustainable Value Proposition

Decisions

• Education around natural fibers like heavy organic cotton, recycled silk alternatives, and plant-based textiles.

• Transparent breakdown of materials, origin, and environmental footprint.

Rationale

Sustainability becomes a lived experience, not a marketing sticker. Users understand what they’re buying, why it matters, and how it impacts the planet.

5. Articles & Learning Hub: Circular Economy

Decisions

• Short, accessible articles explaining circularity, textile recycling, quality over quantity, and garment care.

Rationale

The brand positions itself as a trustworthy guide in sustainable fashion, not just a seller of products.

6. Aesthetic Direction

Decisions

• Neutral colors applicable to all genders.

• Minimal, soft layouts.

• Clean, naturalized product photography.

Rationale

Neutral tones and soft visuals reinforce the brand’s inclusive and sustainable ethos. The design avoids signaling who “should” wear what.

7. Overall Experience Philosophy

Decisions

• Build an interface that respects people’s bodies without labeling them.

• Make sustainability understandable and transparent.

• Prioritize accessibility from the first pixel.

Rationale

This project reframes underwear shopping as a safe, educational, and human-centered experience.

Hey Martina, really "Nice" work! *pun intended* 😅

I liked how you explained your design rationale. The UI looks simple, minimalistic, on point, clean & trustworthy. I also looked at your Figma file and was impressed to see how you took inspiration also into consideration, from multiple sources.

Only one thing I am wondering in relation to UI choices is why you chose to put "+5" so far away from the colors in a product card. When seeing that it felt weird to me, I was expecting it to be close to the colors since I understand it says there are 5 more colors available.

I think the design overall is accessible and inclusive. Only thing I am wondering (and maybe in real life scenarios would require some user testing) is if men or women could get frustrated looking for something right for them, while having to navigate through all "underwear" category which includes products for all people, regardless how they identify, as you mentioned, since you removed traditional "men/women" categories in your website information architecture.

Really nice work! Keep creating and being awesome!

Thank you, Alex, for the feedback. I appreciate it. On the information architecture, my hypothesis is to structure the navigation by need states instead of gender. This would still require validation through card sorting and tree testing, but the idea is to let users self-select based on attributes that actually influence the product choice. For example: Underwear → person with a uterus → experiencing a period Bras → choose breast size or support needs This approach avoids forcing users into gendered categories and supports anyone whose identity does not align with traditional labels. And of course, a person with a p***s who identifies as a man would simply navigate to the section that matches their specific needs. I’m aware this raises a practical question about whether users might feel frustrated by navigating a unified “underwear” entry point. That’s why I’d validate the flow through user testing.

look good! I like it.
