It’s time to show a little love for your body. Torrid, unveiled a new campaign this week, #TheseCurves, featuring a diverse group of real women of different shapes and sizes in the brand’s newest intimates collection. This is Torrid’s latest campaign to feature non-‐models, ranging from customers to digital influencers. #TheseCurves is an expression of Torrid’s commitment to body positivity and making the best fitting bras, panties and lingerie for women sizes 10 to 30.
Launched just in time for Valentine’s Day, the #TheseCurves campaign will be featured on Torrid.com and the brand’s social channels. Torrid plans to continue using the hashtag throughout 2017.
“Launching this hashtag with our intimates campaign, felt right because finding the right bras and panties for a plus size woman has its challenges. Oftentimes, plus size women have been left with bland options,” says Liz Muñoz, SVP of Design of Torrid. “Here at Torrid, we take intimates very seriously and feel that the plus size woman should never have to compromise fit and style. She should have sexy options, just like straight size women.”
Torrid took to social media to cast their campaign stars, tapping customers through an Instagram sweepstakes, as well as plus size fashion bloggers, including Nicole Simone (@Curvesonabudget13), Anna O’Brien (@Glitterandlazers), Natalie Hage (@Nataliemeansnice) and Liz Black (@Psitsfashion).
“We wanted to turn the camera on our girl because we genuinely appreciate our customer. She’s the reason we’re here,” says Kate Horton, SVP and General Merchandise Manager for Torrid. “We’re launching #TheseCurves to show diversity and to empower women to feel bold and sexy.”
