Former AerieREAL Model Launches Lingerie Brand That Offers Up To Size 38H
Now that's size inclusivity
Veteran model Amber Tolliver is launching size-inclusive lingerie brand Liberté, with an exclusive pop-up shop in NYC for the entire month of February. Tolliver, who modeled in the first un-retouched AerieREAL campaign back in 2013, unveiled a line of four lacy bra styles ranging from size 32C to 38H.
The bras, offered alongside six styles of coordinating undies, come in three different colors—onyx, blush, and midnight—and retail from $96 to $138. "As the brand continues to grow," a press release states, "Liberté will incorporate sleepwear, bodysuits, swim and loungewear to further develop into a lifestyle empire powered by women for women."
Tolliver shared via the press release, "We are committed to inspiring confidence through our core social mission which is to change the way women speak to themselves. Our timeless designs prioritize fit to provide women who wear niche sizes the lingerie they deserve but rarely received."
The release states that Tolliver herself is a "frustrated 32E bra shopper," as a way to explain that she firsthand understands the difficulty of finding a proper fit, as many lingerie stores only stock through a DD cup. Tolliver notes that in her own research while creating Liberté, she found that 67 percent of American women "wear at least a 34DD bra," which means that a great majority are unable to shop from many lingerie brands. She elaborates, "These women deserve to look and feel sexy. Limited styles that lack the elegance more petite women are regularly afforded has been the norm for too long. And for fuller women with a love for intimates, this can be discouraging."
