This wednesday we have a very special Woman Crush because it's not just one woman, in fact it's thousands. This week I want to applaud everyone who took part in the anti-Victoria Secret fashion show during lingerie fashion week this past week end.
I am defiently not for bashing people or companies for their mistakes but I do believe they should be pointed out and not handled lightly. If you are not aware, Victoria Secret recently released the campaign above and though they claim it's supposed to be a play on words since the name of the bra is 'the perfect body bra' it was not perceived that way, they have now been in the hot seat for about two weeks due to the campaign. Many people were outraged, some so much so that they did something remarkable about it. The show had multiple brands in it as well as multiple body types and situations. The production showcased a pregnant women and a group of women who have recently defeated cancer as well as multiple body types. This show is not only spectacular for the reason that it protested something so hurtful but it is also for the reason that they applauded these women for how beautiful they all are at the same time. So since they had the courage to applaud and showcase these women, this week I applaud everyone that helped and was apart of this show this past week end.
Ready to set sail,
Ms. Sinking Ship
