OUR FOUNDERS WEIGH IN ON THE LACK OF DIVERSITY AT VICTORIA'S SECRET

August 26, 2019

Victoria's Secret seems to just be waking up to the fact that it's 2019. The brand has finally taken steps towards creating a more diverse roster of models, recently hiring a curvier Lorena Duran and transgender model, Valentina Sampaio. But, some people are asking if this isn't too little too late.

Their Ex-CMO was previously quoted saying that the public isn't interested in watching a fashion show featuring plus or trans models and defended the brand's lack of diversity by explaining that they're promoting a 'fantasy'. Well, pardon us, but f*ck that! Promoting the idea that there is one 'ideal' body type is not only harmful, it's boring and completely untrue.

Our Co-Founders were asked to weigh in on Victoria's Secret's lack of diversity and whether the brand bears a certain responsibility in setting standards for inclusivity in the lingerie industry. Watch the segment below:

Stole My Heart was founded on the belief that every body is beautiful and deserves to be celebrated - a concept that, when we started out in 2016, wasn't very well represented in the lingerie industry at all. We set out to create a lingerie shopping experience that feels welcoming, inclusive and FUN. And, a big part of that comes from offering a great size range and a variety of styles. At Stole My Heart, we're proud to offer sizes 30A - 42H and XS - 2X. And, we promise we'll continue working towards expanding our offering as we grow. 

Thank you for being part of our community and supporting positive changes in this industry.
