This comes at a period when inclusivity is important, Victoria's Secrets were the number one name when it came to lingerie but all that got eroded because many people believed presented a toxic version of beauty - perfectly slim women - called Victoria's Secret angels.

The world is moving and moved on to more diverse brands like Rihanna's, Savage x Fenty with lingerie for people of all sizes, Kim Kardashian's, Skim which is worth $3 billion and even Lizzo’s body shape brand, Yetty.
