Knix recently joined forces with supermodel and entrepreneur Ashley Graham to launch a new campaign that celebrates sexuality. The line aims to encourage individuals to live a life that is unapologetically free, regardless of their career, body type, ability, background, or life stage.
As a way of showcasing their collaboration, Knix and Ashley Graham put out a casting call to her audience to model in New York City. Among the casting call winners is a group of women who have incredible stories to tell: Carly Compton, Korrina Estrada, Tatiana Plascencia, Arielle Estoria, and Indi Robinson.
"We wanted this photoshoot to be more than your typical lingerie photoshoot," says Ashley Graham. "It was important to me to cast women with real stories in this campaign. I wanted the women in this photoshoot to represent what this collection is truly about: being empowered in your body and yourself."
The collection is now available to shop online and in stores.
