AMARE - ACTIV INTIMATES IS CHANGING LINGERIE SO WE CAN ALL HAVE BETTER SEX.
I first met the Activ Intimates founders last year at the Phoenix Fashion Week Emerging Designers Fashion Show. Their designs immediately caught my eye because they weren’t the intimate’s apparel I was used to seeing. It was sexy, yes. It would definitely add a spark to a romantic evening, yes. But it was also something I’d happily throw on for a quiet home evening alone with a bottle of wine and trashy reality show. It looked that comfortable.

VOYAGE PHOENIX - MEET LAURIE MCMORDIE & CJ HERSCH OF ACTIV INTIMATES IN NORTH SCOTTSDALE
Thanks for sharing your story with us Laurie and CJ. So, let’s start at the beginning, and we can move on from there. We started Activ Intimates when we discovered something was missing from the lingerie market. When shopping for lingerie, we found it increasingly difficult to find styles that flattered us in the way they did when we were younger. We began talking to other women to see if they had similar experiences and most of them did – we weren’t alone.

PHOENIX MAGAZINE - MEET YOUR MAKER - LAURIE MCMORDIE & CJ HERSCH
A few years ago, Scottsdale 50-something Laurie McMordie was shopping for lingerie for a special occasion when she realized that nothing was made for her. “I don’t look the same in the things I wore in my 20s, 30s and even 40s, so I got very discouraged,” McMordie says. “So, I went home and sketched out what I was looking for. I started to develop it, and I called [my sister] and we started working on it together.”
