Lizzo has always been applauded for celebrating her curves, and, according to Page Six, she’s spreading the love to all of us with the launch of new shapewear line, Yitty.
Backed by Kate Hudson’s brand Fabletics, Yitty is a “no-shame, smile-inducing shapewear line designed for all body types,” and we can shop sizes ranging from XS to 6XL starting April 12. Hitting its website first are three collections: the lightweight and airy Nearly Naked collection, the ultra-smoothing and contouring Mesh Me collection and the loungewear-focused Major Label collection.
“Instead of thinking about size in this linear way, we’re thinking about it on a spectrum where everyone is included,” the Good as Hell singer says per a release. “Everyone’s size is just their size. It’s not high, it’s not low. It’s not big, it’s not small. It’s just your size…I felt that I was constantly being told through T.V. and magazines that my body wasn’t good enough. And, in order to be considered ‘acceptable’ I had to inflict some sort of pain upon it to fit into an archetype of beauty. Because of this, I’ve been wearing shapewear for a long time, maybe since I was in fifth or sixth grade.”
Answering her prayers for inclusive shapewear, Lizzo set out on the journey to create a brand that comfortably suited all body types without the hassle or the discomfort. We can’t wait for Yitty’s launch and to finally shop shapewear that’s made to enhance our bodies, not change them.
