& Other Stories launches lingerie campaign starring women with tattoos, body hair, scars and birth marks
& Other Stories has launched a new lingerie campaign which challenges traditional notions of beauty in ad campaigns.
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Stripping down to your lingerie is often a daunting prospect, whether or not you happen to a model.
Often this isn't helped by the glossy ad campaigns featuring what appears to be super-humanly toned women (albeit usually helped along with the power of photoshop).
Swedish retailer & Other Stories (from the people that brought us H&M and COS) is eschewing this trend with a new lingerie campaign that features real women.
Tattoos, body hair, scars and birth marks are proudly on display in the inspirational campaign that diversifies traditional notions of beauty.
The campaign was shot by female photographer Hedvig Jenning in the brand's Swedish atelier and shows the 3 models in relaxed poses.
The campaign stars are real women; blogger and yoga enthusiast Helin Honung, cellist Kelsey Lu McJunkis, and copywriter Ida Jagerfelt.
The lingerie collection is in a seasonally appropriate colour palette with red and black styles ideal for lingerie gifting.
Priced from £12, available at stories.com
