Camille Pigeonnier

EUDOXIE

Camille Pigeonnier is the co-founder of Eudoxie Unchained Motorcycle Wear.

Eudoxie is about the passion of motorcycle, the desire for adventure and adrenaline. You have to push your limits and go where others do not dare. The goal is precisely to show that every girl can do whatever she wants, and to promote a lifestyle of free and strong woman!

Today, at the time of the women’s empowerment, many things are said but few are really concrete in our everyday life, they must be real to make sense for the society. Riding a motorcycle while keeping our femininity
is a concrete act that shows everyone how free,
self confident and rock’n’roll you want to be.

Moreover the motorcycle community offers us this opportunity being particularly eclectic, without any barrier, nor without judgement.
