Riley von Niessen — March 17, 2018 — Fashion
Simply Be, a UK-based curvy fashion retailer that offers sizes 12 through 32, recently rebranded after consumers criticized its choice to use only size 12 models last year, Teen Vogue reports. Listening to what was said on social media about the topic, Simply Be is back with a fresh line that uses models of different sizes to promote the summery apparel, which is available in sizes 6 through 34.
The images that promote the apparel show women in powerful poses, wearing the flattering apparel in front of statement backdrops. In addition to the many new swimwear styles that the brand released for the summer, there's also plenty of fashion-forward athleisure and festival-ready dresses, onesies and more available online.
