Lane Bryant is back, serving up some serious body positivity!
The newest installment of their #ThisBody campaign starsĀ singer Lizzo, poet Ashlee Haze and the dancers behind the Pretty Big Movement who are all encouraging women to embrace their size and live life to the fullest.Ā The video coincides with the launch of the Prabal Gurung x Lane Bryant collection, which dropped on Feb. 27.
So inspirational!
“I honestly feel like body positivity only exists because of body shaming,” Lizzo recently told SELF.
“So it feels like we have to take it past being body positive at this point, and body positivity should just be the standard of how you feel about yourself. It means loving yourself inside first and outside secondāthatās really important to me. Letās get past the fact that just because you love yourself, youāre a part of this group of people. Everyone should be body positive. It doesnāt matter if youāre plus size or petite.”
Akira Armstrong, who founded theĀ Pretty Big Movement, stressed that your weight shouldn’t define who you are as a person.
“To be a part of this campaign is liberating,” Armstrong also told SELF. “I havenāt always been comfortable in my skin. This took some time, some progress. It feels good to be able to express who you areāyour flaws and allāwith no judgment. Know that your weight doesnāt define who you are. Itās not about aesthetically how a person looks. But what does this person have to offerātheir talent, their intellect, their artistry.”
Ashlee Haze wants everyone to know that her inspiration usually comes from her own body.
