Reality is REALITY!!! Regardless how we try to get away from it it’s always going to be there..I don’t care what you wear or what you see if your body not made for that it’s not going to be what you see on that mannequin point blank PERIOD.....I’m glad we have people like @Ejspeaks tell us the truth...
I would. Like more realistic ads. I'm not a plus size woman. I have some imperfections and honestly lot of ads and images make me feel insecure about myself.
Let's be clear: a lot of bigger women are shaped like this. Don't ask for realistic body expectations and then want to be selective in which ones we "praise".
I'm personally tired of seeing only "plus size" models with NO stomach. How many if us big girls have flat stomachs. Thanks for all the likes and comments. 5.2K wow. Love my big girl community
@@Jouetsenjeu She is modeling, so her information is available. Also, you think the people you make comments about don't see those comments, especially on an ad where they approved use of their photo? Do you just not care how ugly the words that come out of your mouth (or get typed onto your screen) are because, I do.
As a Torrid employee, these jeans were designed specifically for women who have a fuller midsection and thinner legs. Which is why the jeans are shown this way.
@@ashleyholder2218 these are the Luxe super skinny, I believe! You can find them online, I’m not sure if they are in any stores yet. They were just dropped in the last month or so. I have a pair, they are very soft and very comfy!
I saw the ad and instantly became intrigued. I dont own a single pair of torrid jeans or jeggings because they are usually too big in the thighs and even the CALVES for me in the size I need for my tummy.
Me too👍👍 I carry my weight in my boobs and my belly. My days of trying to look like the models are long gone. I'd give anything if the world was different and we all were accepted for who we are.
I swear some ppl think that “plus size” is just an hour glass with bigger proportions. When will ppl realize that body shapes exist in all different sizes. You can have a pear shaped size 2 and a pencil shaped size 16.
Yaaaasss! I am NOT hourglass. She shaped like me. I love the ad. I stopped buying torrid because they didn’t make jeans for my shape. I started shopping extended sizes at white girl stores to find my size. This make me wanna come back.
Exactly me and my mom are both size 6/7 yet we look completely different. She’s taller, skinnier waist, thinner hips, she’s not curvy while I am a bit shorter but a little bit wider hips and a rounder butt
Shows Ad’s with Skinny women : We need more ads with bigger women. Shows Ad’s with Bigger women : They don’t look like realistic big women. Shows Ad’s with realistic women : Ewww, no.
But most women don't look like that. It looks like the bulge - which I assume to be her stomach goes all the way down into her crotch. I'm more confused than anything. Was it just a weird angle? I've never seen this in my life.
I am “built like that”. I’m 28 and have always struggled with being “built like that”. We are constantly shamed for not being curvy enough to look appealing. We struggle to find clothing especially where our butts just can’t seem to fill the pockets and blouses that won’t button. I could be standing next to someone else with the same exact weight, or more, but if their body is hourglass/pear shaped, they won’t receive the same judgement. Since middle school, I’ve been called things like , “bad bodied, line backer, sponge bob, booty-do, etc. I have heard comments like “Why she built like that?!” And “She looks pregnant”...All while simply just existing. At a young age, you don’t know when something is “wrong” about you, until someone else says something. Sometimes I imagine how free I would’ve been if people didn’t open their mouths for a moment just to make me feel like shit.
I hope that you are able to come full circle again and be free. I feel that is possible for you. I struggle with my body image although it's different than your story. I sympathize with what your saying about freedom to exist and be without the cage of image or body being imposed on you.
This breaks my heart reading this. We have a long way to go as a society with accepting people, especially women, that don't fit the "ideal" mold. There's still so much pressure on women to look perfect and desirable that even those with a body like a model still aren't happy with themselves. I'd go as far to say that every woman has felt some sort of insecurity about their body at some point in their life. This ad is a blessing, its a glimmer of hope that we're heading in the right direction. Stay strong my dear, we'll get there eventually but in the meantime know that you're still beautiful and middle fingers up to the people that disagree 🖕🏻🖕🏻
Yes!! I feel the exact same way! But I’m so grateful I’m free now of others opinion on my body! I love me all parts of me! I accept my differences with a smile, i nurture and praise what society sees as imperfect and deemed it perfect because It’s Me!
So they're mad that Torrid, a company who makes clothes for plus sized women, used a plus sized woman to model plus sized women's clothes? Oh...ok😒🤦🏽♀️
I’m considered “skinny fat” and I carry my fat in weird places. My right side is bigger than my left side. Bigger boob, bigger leg, bigger butt cheek. I don’t look like this model one bit so I wouldn’t buy these jeans but kudos to torrid. When are women gonna stop bringing other women down?? Thin women make fun of other thin women. Bigger women make fun of other bigger women. Women just making fun of women. It’s disgusting
@@TravelBug189 I agree 💯! I'm a big girl, but I'm very curvy. I don't look like this model, but I have friends that do. I have skinny friends who can't fit anything in Torrid. And that's ok. Bodies are just bodies and they should all be loved and respected equally regardless of size. People really need to chill with shame politics.
Omisoore Exactly. Not all plus size women are plus size in their butt or boobs. Some have small boobs but a bigger belly. Some have thick thighs and a flat booty. I’m very small up top but I have 41 inch hips and a 27 inch waist and 24 inch thighs. Looks and sounds weird. I’ve given up on finding jeans. I wear leggings or loungewear. Fat goes to different places. If I lose fat my face looks gaunt and long yet my ass is still big. We all have to accept where our curves go and not shame other women
Women just can’t get any breaks. Everyone is stupidly obsessed with how a woman’s body is shaped. This body part is too big, too small, too unsymmetrical blah blah blah. Just let people exist ffs.
Ikr. People be like, " We need to be body inclusivity!!!😤" yet this model is shown and she gets attacked. People need to know not all plus size women are "hourglass" or "pear" shaped. In fact I don't even see those types of bodies as often anyway. How much you wanna bet they don't look like that either, yet they are there in the comment section making fun of her. Some people are dumb.
The craziest thing is when women do it to each other. It's gross. We always hear "you should put a real + sized women in ads", "big is beautiful too", "we come in all shape and sizes & we're all beautiful". Instead they're body shaming the model because her body is a different plus size to their's or maybe it's just self hatred, regardless it's all BS. I think the model rocks the jeans, I get the idea of how it'd look and in glad we've gotten to a place where at least some retailers are hearing the +sizes and making accommodations; because we all know that simply making a garment bigger does nothing. It has to be tailored to fit as nicely as it would for a standard sized garment which takes extra work. It's like how a lot of + size clothes would have fit issues because for some reason +S means "wide & short" in so many designs and garments. So to find a place making those important tweaks to the pattern to make it a nice garment that doesn't scream "I was meant to be a standard size but we added extra fabric and hoped for the best". I hope this model hasn't seen any of the comments/posts of these toxic individuals.
Yeah just because gym people work hard for their body and feel mad that everyone doesn’t want to look the same way doesn’t mean they should project their gym experience
I am so sick of people getting offended by someone's actual, real body, the audacity. They sound like dudes who whine over women who style themselves in ways they find unattractive as if his highness's eyes should be catered to. I think you hit the nail on the head when you said we have been spoiled by social media.
For real, honestly they say they want realistic clothes models ,well there are people who look like this they can see how the jeans will look on them I know they can appreciate this !
you wanna know who cares? people with the ILLUSION of a perfect body. like my cousin. she swears her body is perfect. and from afar, it is. but when you get up on her....
As a girl whose body is shaped like an ice cream cone, I have to appreciate seeing an ad that showcases someone who looks more like me. Plus size models are usually "pretty fat"... evenly fat all over, they look lovely. My fat is lumpy and gathered in unattractive places. Bring on more body type diversity in plus size ads!
Yes! By body shaming that one model they're body shaming every lady with this body type thin or plus sized. I know id be built like that if I put on weight. We just have slim legs and don't put fat on there everyone acts like we're supposed to, like every shape is okay accept that one :/
bruh, that ad is literally so refreshing to me. it’s just realistic. usually the plus size models i see still have flat tummies, little waists, wide hips, and maybe a little bit of chub if the brand is feeling up to it. they basically use the more “idealistic” version of being plus sized, but it makes you feel a certain way when you STILL don’t look like that. either way, dorito shaped or not, every body is still a snack 🤷♀️
im shaped like the models usually (wide hips, smaller waist, big bust) just with realistic chubbiness showing and even then the clothes arent exactly amazing on me. says a lot about how the clothes are tbh
These people be like: “show us models with realistic bodies, because ALL bodies are beautiful😡” **after being shown realistic bodies** “You know what...nevermind😶”
Who says these people were the “all bodies are beautiful” crowd or the “we want realistic models” crowd? They could just as easily be the “I judge you to improve your life” crowd or the “you have to wear clothes that make you look closer to the ideal body shape” crowd.
@@Kknderbueno in reality, they probably aren’t the same group, it’s just something that I’ve seen commonly said when referring to certain messages of society so I thought it was funny personally
@@Kknderbueno Nah, a lot of the time it's definitely the same people who asked for realistic bodies. Like they'll see a model with small breasts and hips and complain it's unrealistic when it's actually a very common body type.
@M Tol sucks when it doesn't do shit. There's lots of medical syndromes, illnesses, etc. That cause that. For example, the pituitary gland, if that's fucked up in any way, we are too short, tall, fat, emotional, etc. Also screws up the thyroid. Not to mention various hormonal problems that are unfixable due to financial difficulty, or they don't work.
@M Tol I was at the pinnacle of health at 120 lbs when I was diagnosed with PCOS. I played sports in highschool and ate a very well balanced diet. I have a hormonal imbalance of too much testosterone and not enough estrogen…. As a result I started developing excess fat especially around my midsection. I developed androgenic alopecia, lost my periods, severe acne… and I became diabetic WHEN I WAS SMALL SIZED!! All because of a hormone imbalance
This is why I say you can’t trust society. So fickle. In one breath “women empowerment, saggy boobs matter, body positivity” and in the next breath “we do not want to see anyone that does not look like a Beyoncé or a Kardashian”. Women are hit with contrasting messages on what they should be or look like every time they walk out the door. It’s too much.
So true and what's sad is that it's women tearing down another woman. Torrid is all about body empowerment, and we as women should be supporting that instead of complaining and tearing another woman with a different body shape down.
Both kim and beyonce probably had sime work done one I know for sure. But you've really gotta learn to love yourself and connect with those who love and respect you for who you are. Billy joel song I love you just the way you are. We judge too much on how someone look not character. Be safe and prosperous.
That's what I call false feminism. Women "empowerment" only meant to empower some and not all or just outrageous standards for how women should act or look like. Toxic people will always be the loudest, and in this day and age I think us normal people need to start being louder too if we wanna drown out this nonsense.
I am cutting out the good food from my diet! You just said potato! Now I want mashed potatoes, fried potatoes, hash browns...anything. I'm over here good and mad eating baby carrots 🥕 🤪 🤣 I am trying to lose weight because my knees hurt so much. But, even when I do lose weight, I will still be plus sized. And, that is alright with me. My goal is a size 14. Currently I am an 18 or 20. I have an hourglass figure, but some jerk dropped in some extra sand, right on my tummy! 🤣🤣🤣
people love to hype up plus size women if they’re the “right” kind of plus size (curvy, slim waist, thick thighs, etc). more companies need to have models with ALL different body types!
I was literally just telling a co-worker about how I appreciate that Torrid shows most of thier swimsuits on multiple sized models. It really helps with being able to see what they will look like on your body. It is sad that people can't just leave folks be! That "bad built" lady being paid by Torrid, while the folks clowning forking over thier money TO Torrid!
My best friend growing up too. Its so hard to buy well fitting clothes with an apple shaped body. Not only are clothes not displayed on your body type there are very very few if any options cut for you. I think its actually great torrid cuts for not just plus sizes but also different body shapes. No matter what size in the spectrum you are apple bodies are getting a raw deal in fashion.
I am a woman with whole lot of stomach and almost no butt. I used to hate trying on clothes bc I knew I would look awful in them and never purchased clothes. Just bc some of us don't have body shapes like celebrities or models don't mean we're not just as beautiful. Keep buying clothes you love and don't worry about what negative things ppl say. Its what you think about yourself!!!!!!
I'm built like a blade of grass....we all need representation. If all the models had hourglass dr. Miami bodies thn none of the clothing they rock will look the same on us
@@theedeevynegoddess it's crazy cuz I've seen them cast for women who aren't really Monique big n beautiful for Tyra Banks plus size. Tyra has curves, she ain't thick, or plus size
As an “older”, plus size woman, with MANY friends who are shaped exactly like this model, I feel like it’s about time that THEY are actually able to find jeans that will FIT their body type! Way to go Torrid!!😊
I hope that model is ok and not somewhere depressed when we all have at least one auntie or cousin shaped like that. Many plus women are top heavy with little legs. People attack brands for using models that are all shaped the same but when variety is given they shame the models.
exactly. remember the H&M add with the little black girl and her unkempt natural hair? thats what this reminds me of. i think that lil girl's mom got threats or taunts. it was ridiculous.
I hope she’s laughing all the way to the bank and to her next photo shoot/modeling gig. Eff these people! Folks be concerned about the wrong thing, and all the while miserable in their own lives
I was thinking the same thing, bless her heart. I know that if I had been all excited about my photo shoot with Torrid and then this happened, I would be hurt. Idk if the money would make it better either because you would be expecting to be accepted by your peers and other women who look like you and then all of a sudden people are talking about it everywhere. I really do feel sad for her.
We are consistently bombarded with what the industry thinks is the normal body we have convinced ourselves this model is deformed or trolling. Meanwhile Trya Banks, Tess Holiday, and the rest use Photoshop after a successful shoot. We need to get over it.
When I was in 7th grade, a guy I had a crush on basically bullied a teacher that was “built like that” to the point that she quit. I didn’t know about it till they switched my schedule, I remember being so mad at him for disrespecting her, that first day after my schedule changed I stopped liking him. I honestly thought she was very beautiful, still to this day, I hope she’s doing fine.
Your teacher, an adult, did not get bullied by a 12 year old boy. If an adult teacher, felt that threatened by comments from a child then she had other issues and classroom management was only one of them. Your crush did not deserve to be accused of running her off.
@@djuanaberuk9908 It wasn’t just things he was saying but also what he was doing. Honestly that fact that I said bullying was to put it lightly. He ended up getting expelled anyway. So it don’t really matter. Edit: For example, her husband had passed away due to a car crash(she was in the car with him), and he said and did things in her class to remind her of the accident.
I'm not built like the woman in the ad and honestly, i'm tired of seeing the cropped and/or cookie cutter bodies because it can really miss with ones self esteem over time. ***my self esteem*** So I appreciate them for using a real everyday person.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes I totally agree. When I used to shop on Pretty little thing I would say “dang I gotta have a shape like hers in order for this to look good on me.”
My sister is shaped this way and can’t find good jeans anywhere. So she buys super baggy jeans and then feels insecure and has no confidence. I’m glad she’s able to see ppl that look like her. And F anyone who has issue w it. Period!
I have PCOS (Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome), a hormone disorder that causes me to have a body shape similar to the model. The hormone imbalance with testosterone causes a lot of women with the disorder to collect the majority of our weight around our waistlines. I have lost over 100 lbs and am now a size 12/14, but my body still looks pretty similar to the model's. If it were down to dieting and the way I eat, then of course I would not look like this, but I have a disorder and that's just how my body distributes weight. I'm tired of being judged over it, people will stare at your stomach or judge you for having a small butt like you have any control over it. I am learning to love myself and be grateful for a body that has been through so much and allows me to breathe, move, and live the life I want. I appreciate when anyone puts a spotlight on apple-shaped women, we are often left out of the plus size visibility movement because we aren't the "right" kind of fat
@@sophievanderbilt1325 thank you so much! It hasn't been easy but I've been maintaining my weight loss for a year and a half. Stay strong out there and always recognize your own beauty 💗
I mean, it’s realistic? May not be the “ideal” hourglass plus-size shape, but this is way more common. I see a loooot of folks shaped like this in the wild.
I appreciate a fupa when buying clothes. I hate that I can’t envision what clothes will look like on me. What the industry wants is for us to continue buying clothes and shit for the bodies we WISH we had. Screw that! I’m a plus size hourglass hiding a midsize pumpkin under her shirt
You are hilarious. But I agree I hate trying to buy clothes online and trying to envision what it would look like on me. When the model isn’t shaped like me.
This reminds of the time Nike put out an ad with plus size females and people were outraged. People yell and say you're fat and need to work and then Nike comes out with a line for plus size. Those same people were yelling for them to not be wearing the clothes. So what are they to wear then? I am sick of people fat shaming and skinny shaming. We are different in our own ways and it needs to be accepted. If you don't like the way I look, please don't look at me and keep it to yourself.
It's honestly bad enough that we plus size women are already judged by the rest of society, now we gotta be tearing each other down too?? It's honestly pathetic.
She looks like a lot of women in this world. I'm finally happy a company a clothing company is showing a realistic looking woman. People want real but get offended when you give them real.
What’s funny is I bet most of the people mad at this ad are shaped exactly like her. Some people can’t stand reality, this is a very common plus size woman body.
I saw the ad and placed a $100 order that day because I support businesses being honest in their portrayal of plus sized clothing proportions and fit. Waiting on my order as we speak
I think people who get upset about the ad are the ones who DON'T want to accept the truth about what they truly look like in certain clothes. Its ok for me. I'll find whats best suited for me
I've noticed that even on plus size websites, they're not just picking any old big girl. They're picking models of a certain shape. You still have to have what's considered a "desirable" shape even for a plus size model. I respect that they are representing different plus size shapes.
Monet I. I absolutely agree. And what’s so funny about that is I can remember a time when the ‘thick thighs, big booty’ look wasn’t even considered “desirable” by mainstream media. In the late 90s/early 2000s if you were built like that you’d be considered fat and folks would say you had a “ghetto booty”. The goalposts are constantly moving and people are never going to have ‘perfect’ bodies. If Torrid wants to be inclusive to all bodies, then good for them.
Right! Cause their firm fat chicks have me adding all kinds of stuff in my cart then when it's time to pay I have my 'come to Jesus moment'. I visualize my body all girdled up in the outfit and start removing from cart.😂
Monet I. Exactly! Like Ashley Graham. It’s seems they always try to pick the most ‘in proportion’ plus sized model. But straight or curvy most of us are not perfectly in proportion. 🤷🏽♀️
I wish more places showed real bodies. Not everyone is perfectly shaped like all the models they show. KUDOS FOR TORRID! I RESPECT THEM MORE FOR DOING THAT.
To be honest, I was one of those people saying wth did they use this pic? Also being honest, this is what turned me away from purchasing these Jean's. I usually look at models more built as I am. I am plus sized. I do have my own "big girl" issues. UK have some big behind th highs and legs. My weight is pretty much evened out, er'thing big. But sometimes it may take a video like this to make us see things differently. So I'm glad this has been brought to attention. I bbn have a few friends and a fam who are built similar and 1 who has cried to me about it. It seriously broke my heart to hear that she felt that way. So thanks for this reminder Ejspeaks!
So, I wonder if these plus size women that were mad about the ad didn’t want to admit that’s how they would look in them? They may be living in denial. 😂
That's totally what it is! I know I'm shaped like this and was shocked..like ok 1 time for us odd shaped girls! 👏🏽👏🏽 Some just don't know how to be honest with themselves.
This reminds me of that ad where people were mad that the little black girl's hair was in a messy pony tail. I guess they felt she was being disrespected by the campaign. In reality she was being singled out and bullied by the people who were offended because all the other races also had messy hair. That was the theme. God forbid a lil black girl feel she's cute even if her hair is messy
I'm built like the model. I haven't worn jeans in probably over 5 years. This ad is actually making me consider trying jeans again. Torrid 100% knows their audience, and this is super effective for people who actually matter to them. I hope this sets a precedent in the industry!
Try them! I think they look great on the model. Might as well embrace your body instead of going around being miserable about it because it's with you for life and who wants to be miserable their whole life? That's my motto anyways. Hope you can find some you like! 😊
Nothing offensive at all about it. The comments insulting this woman who has a very common body shape is what’s offensive. She got her coin they sound mad tho
it shows you that the "body positivity" movement still got a long way to go when we still only value "curves" when most women don't even got all them curves. it's like when the black girl ad when her hair was natural and the natural hair community was like "y'all got this baby lookin a hot mess with her nappy hair" like WTF. Like you said we don't even GAF about reality anymore social media definitely changing our perceptions
As someone who has been describing her body shape as "looking like Danny DeVito" for years I am _thrilled_ to see more diversity in (plus sized, since "regular" sizes still only seem to have incredibly slim models) clothing ads! My and my teeny weeny lil twig legs have been waiting YEARS to see our apple-on-a-stick body shape represented in clothing ads because now I actually have a decent idea how they might look on me, which is, I dunno, really helpful. Now I'll just be waiting for people to start making shorts that don't fit me like a goddamn parachute, thanks.
lil toaster which is why the ad is great, people built like this can decide if that’s a look they think suits them, some people might really like it and think they look great whilst others with the same body shape might not like it, at least this way it’s a realistic representation rather than girls like this buying clothes from hourglass models and being disappointed when they put it on
Advertisements like this are needed because they show REAL LIFE depictions of women of all shapes. Not everyone has a perfect hourglass shape and that deserves representation because everyone should see how clothes would fit on their respective bodies.
Me too!🍎 I appreciate the representation realistic and different body shapes. Dont sell me a dream, when I first saw the ad I was excited and felt pretty good about myself.
Isn't everyone preaching about not body shaming and inclusiveness nowadays? Well, Torrid represented. How dare those ppl complain about this woman's body. Be for real, how many plus sized women have a flat stomach 🤨 Shoe, even some slimmer women have some kinda pooch or something. Ppl can really be ridiculous. I miss the days when ppl didn't complain about every little thing. Now, everything that hits the media, someone is offended, someone is mad, someone didn't like it, etc. It's all so draining and toxic. Imo, just stick to complaining about serious issues. Great job Torrid!👏🏾👏🏾 Keep representing real women.
I appreciate the stores now showing different bodies. It gives me a better idea of how it will fit in me. And since this pandemic, I’m well on my way to looking like the Torrid model. Thank you for making me feel seen!
I agree with you 100%. I have a close friend that shapes exactly like that and am sure would appreciate the fact that Torrid is thinking about people like her. It's funny that social media has now become the mirror image of what magazines have been reflecting for many years, and people bashed those magazines for doing the very same thing - demonstrating fantasies instead of reality.
She is built like Humpty Dumpty, but so are most people out here. LOL. I'm not mad at them. I was watching Rihanna's Savage show last night and I said I give her props for having every size, color, and age in her show. The is no such thing as perfect.
To me, it absolutely makes sense for the model to look realistic... however, we live in a society where people want to see and emulate perfection...even when they themselves are imperfect. They don't want the model to look like what they see in the mirror. They want the model to look like Beyonce so they can fool themselves into thinking they can look like Beyonce too... even though they may be built like a mini fridge. 🤷♀️
More people need to see this. Imagine how the model (and other women that are this shape) feel after reading those comments. It breaks my heart really.
Me being a girl who has more stomach than she does ass reallyyyy appreciates this ad. If I wore those fashion nova jeans my kitty would be begging for some air!!😂 this ad is perfectly imperfect, just like the model is and just like millions of girls around the world💜
@@westworld237 there is a tendency to accept only plus sized women who fit the ratio of the hourglass figure. Plus sized models virtually all fit this one cookie cutter shape, and also miraculously have very little fat in their faces. They often do not look like the overwhelming majority of fat woman in America.
Nah the majority of us that support the movement are not the ones that are against this. It's the fat phobic individuals and the fake body positive individuals that don't understand that fat ppl should be accepted, they're human and all their shapes are valid even though they aren't skinny. While its a tendency for society to only want to see women with pear and hourglass shaped bodies people that truly support body positivity disagree with that mentality.
All of my auntys have what we call that “front bum” and some cousins be well on their way too. Shoot maybe even me 😂. I really liked the ad Its REAL. AND ALWAYS REMEMBER: It’s inside what counts and when Jesus comes back He ain’t gonna be looking out for fashionova customers
I’M built like that model. I got a muffin top that looks like that in jeans so when I wear jeans, I wear a baggy hoodie because I don’t like how it looks. I exercise everyday but I have stomach problems so it’s hard for me to lose the weight easier than other people and that’s okay. Everyone is made different and that’s what makes them... them.
REGARDLESS OF HER SHAPE! SHES HUMAN AND DESERVES RESPECT. idc if she was the only person on earth built like that, RESPECT THAT PERSON. That’s why you can’t listen to people.
I’m sitting here, wearing my waist trainer, RIGHT NAH, and I can say I appreciate Torrid for this. I’m 5’8, about 165-170, and my shape isn’t like this, BUT I still appreciate seeing this as reminder of who the actual customers are. Why do ppl think influencers are soo marketable? And why brick and mortar stores are steadily going under? The clearance racks with xs-Smalls, that’s why. Other companies, know your audience. Lemme see some fupas, jeans that actually have support/ hold in your muffin top/pudge WITHOUT surgery. Yes Torrid. Just yeeees. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I thought the ad was pretty realistic. What do you think about it?
Reality is REALITY!!! Regardless how we try to get away from it it’s always going to be there..I don’t care what you wear or what you see if your body not made for that it’s not going to be what you see on that mannequin point blank PERIOD.....I’m glad we have people like @Ejspeaks tell us the truth...
I love realistic ads because it shows that we live in a realistic world and have an imperfect society that we all live in.
I would. Like more realistic ads. I'm not a plus size woman. I have some imperfections and honestly lot of ads and images make me feel insecure about myself.
Savage X Fenty keeps it real too! Stretch marks, body rolls, etc. I love it! I'm with you, EJ. Show me what I'll look like in your product. 💯🎯💖

Imagine how the model feels!! She's a person! Not just a picture...
Yeah that outfit doesn't fit her I've seen better outfits on women her size
I didn’t even think about that, turned on by her own community. Sad.
So you have never… in your life… on social media or elsewhere said something negative about someone? Her face isn’t even shown.
@@Jouetsenjeu She is modeling, so her information is available. Also, you think the people you make comments about don't see those comments, especially on an ad where they approved use of their photo? Do you just not care how ugly the words that come out of your mouth (or get typed onto your screen) are because, I do.
@@brian_Austin27 It's a pair of skinny jeans. They fit just fine.
As a Torrid employee, these jeans were designed specifically for women who have a fuller midsection and thinner legs. Which is why the jeans are shown this way.
Good for Torrid.
What kind of jeans are they? My body looks exactly like the woman in the ad!
@@ashleyholder2218 these are the Luxe super skinny, I believe! You can find them online, I’m not sure if they are in any stores yet. They were just dropped in the last month or so. I have a pair, they are very soft and very comfy!
I saw the ad and instantly became intrigued. I dont own a single pair of torrid jeans or jeggings because they are usually too big in the thighs and even the CALVES for me in the size I need for my tummy.
Which is exactly what I have! Props to Torrid for acting like my body type exists and is acceptable for a human being.
I’m all belly and no ass. Not everyone is an hourglass. Period.
Me too👍👍 I carry my weight in my boobs and my belly. My days of trying to look like the models are long gone.
I'd give anything if the world was different and we all were accepted for who we are.
Me too. I always say I'm all gut no butt 😂
Same 😩 and the hip dips ain't helping at all!
Same!
Amen
I swear some ppl think that “plus size” is just an hour glass with bigger proportions. When will ppl realize that body shapes exist in all different sizes. You can have a pear shaped size 2 and a pencil shaped size 16.
Exactly.
Right - like they only put out plus size like that.. a tall 5'7 woman who is curvy just in her waist, with a flat stomach. The fuck
Yaaaasss! I am NOT hourglass. She shaped like me. I love the ad. I stopped buying torrid because they didn’t make jeans for my shape. I started shopping extended sizes at white girl stores to find my size. This make me wanna come back.
Exactly me and my mom are both size 6/7 yet we look completely different. She’s taller, skinnier waist, thinner hips, she’s not curvy while I am a bit shorter but a little bit wider hips and a rounder butt
THIS 👏👏👏

We need more ads with bigger women.

AMEN!!! Never satisfied...
I think unhappy people are usually the loudest
@@lilstardrops That’s the root of the problem… personal insecurities being projected on others.
But most women don't look like that. It looks like the bulge - which I assume to be her stomach goes all the way down into her crotch. I'm more confused than anything. Was it just a weird angle? I've never seen this in my life.
I am “built like that”. I’m 28 and have always struggled with being “built like that”. We are constantly shamed for not being curvy enough to look appealing. We struggle to find clothing especially where our butts just can’t seem to fill the pockets and blouses that won’t button. I could be standing next to someone else with the same exact weight, or more, but if their body is hourglass/pear shaped, they won’t receive the same judgement.
Since middle school, I’ve been called things like , “bad bodied, line backer, sponge bob, booty-do, etc. I have heard comments like “Why she built like that?!” And “She looks pregnant”...All while simply just existing.
At a young age, you don’t know when something is “wrong” about you, until someone else says something.
Sometimes I imagine how free I would’ve been if people didn’t open their mouths for a moment just to make me feel like shit.
I felt that. 💔
Srry Suga that that's been your experience. Thanks for being so candid about it.
I hope that you are able to come full circle again and be free. I feel that is possible for you. I struggle with my body image although it's different than your story. I sympathize with what your saying about freedom to exist and be without the cage of image or body being imposed on you.
This breaks my heart reading this. We have a long way to go as a society with accepting people, especially women, that don't fit the "ideal" mold. There's still so much pressure on women to look perfect and desirable that even those with a body like a model still aren't happy with themselves. I'd go as far to say that every woman has felt some sort of insecurity about their body at some point in their life. This ad is a blessing, its a glimmer of hope that we're heading in the right direction. Stay strong my dear, we'll get there eventually but in the meantime know that you're still beautiful and middle fingers up to the people that disagree 🖕🏻🖕🏻
Yes!! I feel the exact same way! But I’m so grateful I’m free now of others opinion on my body! I love me all parts of me! I accept my differences with a smile, i nurture and praise what society sees as imperfect and deemed it perfect because It’s Me!
So they're mad that Torrid, a company who makes clothes for plus sized women, used a plus sized woman to model plus sized women's clothes? Oh...ok😒🤦🏽♀️
I’m considered “skinny fat” and I carry my fat in weird places. My right side is bigger than my left side. Bigger boob, bigger leg, bigger butt cheek. I don’t look like this model one bit so I wouldn’t buy these jeans but kudos to torrid. When are women gonna stop bringing other women down?? Thin women make fun of other thin women. Bigger women make fun of other bigger women. Women just making fun of women. It’s disgusting
@@TravelBug189 I agree 💯! I'm a big girl, but I'm very curvy. I don't look like this model, but I have friends that do. I have skinny friends who can't fit anything in Torrid. And that's ok. Bodies are just bodies and they should all be loved and respected equally regardless of size. People really need to chill with shame politics.
Omisoore
Exactly. Not all plus size women are plus size in their butt or boobs. Some have small boobs but a bigger belly. Some have thick thighs and a flat booty. I’m very small up top but I have 41 inch hips and a 27 inch waist and 24 inch thighs. Looks and sounds weird. I’ve given up on finding jeans. I wear leggings or loungewear. Fat goes to different places. If I lose fat my face looks gaunt and long yet my ass is still big. We all have to accept where our curves go and not shame other women
👏THANK 👏YOU!!!!!
In my household we have all different types of shapes going on up on here...shooot they better continue to recognize shooot!!,🙄
Exactly make it make sense
Women just can’t get any breaks. Everyone is stupidly obsessed with how a woman’s body is shaped. This body part is too big, too small, too unsymmetrical blah blah blah. Just let people exist ffs.
Ikr. People be like, " We need to be body inclusivity!!!😤" yet this model is shown and she gets attacked. People need to know not all plus size women are "hourglass" or "pear" shaped. In fact I don't even see those types of bodies as often anyway. How much you wanna bet they don't look like that either, yet they are there in the comment section making fun of her. Some people are dumb.
People in general*
Everyone is judged for their body, whether it's tits, dick, ass, size, etc.
@@itsthatonechickagaincallth7843 everyone is judged but women are judged based off of their appearance more than anyone else.
The craziest thing is when women do it to each other. It's gross. We always hear "you should put a real + sized women in ads", "big is beautiful too", "we come in all shape and sizes & we're all beautiful". Instead they're body shaming the model because her body is a different plus size to their's or maybe it's just self hatred, regardless it's all BS. I think the model rocks the jeans, I get the idea of how it'd look and in glad we've gotten to a place where at least some retailers are hearing the +sizes and making accommodations; because we all know that simply making a garment bigger does nothing. It has to be tailored to fit as nicely as it would for a standard sized garment which takes extra work. It's like how a lot of + size clothes would have fit issues because for some reason +S means "wide & short" in so many designs and garments. So to find a place making those important tweaks to the pattern to make it a nice garment that doesn't scream "I was meant to be a standard size but we added extra fabric and hoped for the best". I hope this model hasn't seen any of the comments/posts of these toxic individuals.
Yeah just because gym people work hard for their body and feel mad that everyone doesn’t want to look the same way doesn’t mean they should project their gym experience
I am so sick of people getting offended by someone's actual, real body, the audacity. They sound like dudes who whine over women who style themselves in ways they find unattractive as if his highness's eyes should be catered to. I think you hit the nail on the head when you said we have been spoiled by social media.
I don't see the problem. Its realistic. People are built like this.
@EJFranks @LisaFranks39 It happens to a ton women of older age after having a baby...
Lmao and the ppl built like this should not wear it! Lol
Yikes !
For real, honestly they say they want realistic clothes models ,well there are people who look like this they can see how the jeans will look on them I know they can appreciate this !
Yes. There are people built like a busted can of biscuits!
I was just happy that they showed a fupa. All heavy women are not curvy.
Yes! A fupa👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
🙌🙌🙌
The fupa struggle is REAL. You mean a pair of REAL JEANS might fit me that arent elastic waist jeggings?!? 😲
Where do you shop for clothes for heavy and not curvy? Those 2 diff things for real and plus size isn't just curvy.
I feel the same way and have heard a lot of the same comments as you
Everyone carries their fat in different places, even skinny people have fat in different places. Who cares, everyone needs clothes.
"Yeppers, with stinky hot peppers"!! 🌶
So true
you wanna know who cares? people with the ILLUSION of a perfect body. like my cousin. she swears her body is perfect. and from afar, it is. but when you get up on her....
Exactly I'm relatively thin but am thick on the bottom half but also vice versa other have a full chest but skinny legs
Thank You 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
As a girl whose body is shaped like an ice cream cone, I have to appreciate seeing an ad that showcases someone who looks more like me. Plus size models are usually "pretty fat"... evenly fat all over, they look lovely. My fat is lumpy and gathered in unattractive places. Bring on more body type diversity in plus size ads!
Yes! By body shaming that one model they're body shaming every lady with this body type thin or plus sized. I know id be built like that if I put on weight. We just have slim legs and don't put fat on there everyone acts like we're supposed to, like every shape is okay accept that one :/
"Pretty fat." I've never heard that before, but it's sooo true and accurate!!
Only thing I’m offended by is some of Torrid’s prices 😆
RIGHT!!! 🤣🤣🤣
giiiiiiiiiiiiirl you SAID it!
Amen!! 👏🏻 It’s starting to get freaking ridiculous now. I mean charging $70 for a freaking babydoll dress?! wtf. 🙄
How is this not the top comment?? 🤣💯
That part
Why are people acting like this isn't a real body shape. This ad is good to me.
As if that body type doesn’t require clothes or something???
It actually doesn’t look really tbh ...
@@danib712 Then you need to turn off the tv/computer and get out more.
Apparently all big women got big hour glass shapes with flat stomachs and no cellulite because that's the only plus size models I see🤔
It's not that its not a real body shape. Its just that its not attractive at all
bruh, that ad is literally so refreshing to me. it’s just realistic. usually the plus size models i see still have flat tummies, little waists, wide hips, and maybe a little bit of chub if the brand is feeling up to it. they basically use the more “idealistic” version of being plus sized, but it makes you feel a certain way when you STILL don’t look like that. either way, dorito shaped or not, every body is still a snack 🤷♀️
im shaped like the models usually (wide hips, smaller waist, big bust) just with realistic chubbiness showing and even then the clothes arent exactly amazing on me. says a lot about how the clothes are tbh
and to note im not flat tummied, most of the fat on me is in the bust or distributed around my hips
These people be like:
“show us models with realistic bodies, because ALL bodies are beautiful😡”
**after being shown realistic bodies**
“You know what...nevermind😶”
Who says these people were the “all bodies are beautiful” crowd or the “we want realistic models” crowd? They could just as easily be the “I judge you to improve your life” crowd or the “you have to wear clothes that make you look closer to the ideal body shape” crowd.
@@Kknderbueno in reality, they probably aren’t the same group, it’s just something that I’ve seen commonly said when referring to certain messages of society so I thought it was funny personally
People are so used to seeing fake bodies that they don't realize when one is real.
@@Kknderbueno Nah, a lot of the time it's definitely the same people who asked for realistic bodies. Like they'll see a model with small breasts and hips and complain it's unrealistic when it's actually a very common body type.
Torrid bout to file bankruptcy end of 2021
I cant imagine being the model knowing the backlash of HER BODY because it isn't some perfect vision of plus size, that's really sad.
💔☹
Hope the model chooses life over fake plastic ppl
@M Tol sucks when it doesn't do shit. There's lots of medical syndromes, illnesses, etc. That cause that. For example, the pituitary gland, if that's fucked up in any way, we are too short, tall, fat, emotional, etc. Also screws up the thyroid. Not to mention various hormonal problems that are unfixable due to financial difficulty, or they don't work.
@M Tol I was at the pinnacle of health at 120 lbs when I was diagnosed with PCOS. I played sports in highschool and ate a very well balanced diet. I have a hormonal imbalance of too much testosterone and not enough estrogen…. As a result I started developing excess fat especially around my midsection. I developed androgenic alopecia, lost my periods, severe acne… and I became diabetic WHEN I WAS SMALL SIZED!! All because of a hormone imbalance
This is why I say you can’t trust society. So fickle. In one breath “women empowerment, saggy boobs matter, body positivity” and in the next breath “we do not want to see anyone that does not look like a Beyoncé or a Kardashian”. Women are hit with contrasting messages on what they should be or look like every time they walk out the door. It’s too much.
So true and what's sad is that it's women tearing down another woman. Torrid is all about body empowerment, and we as women should be supporting that instead of complaining and tearing another woman with a different body shape down.
Yeah most of those “contrasting messages” are from other women. Not society.
Both kim and beyonce probably had sime work done one I know for sure. But you've really gotta learn to love yourself and connect with those who love and respect you for who you are. Billy joel song I love you just the way you are. We judge too much on how someone look not character. Be safe and prosperous.
Yep
That's what I call false feminism. Women "empowerment" only meant to empower some and not all or just outrageous standards for how women should act or look like. Toxic people will always be the loudest, and in this day and age I think us normal people need to start being louder too if we wanna drown out this nonsense.
My lady has a similar body shape of that model. Damn near 90% of her clothes come from Torrid, they know what they doing and I ain't mad! 💪🏾
I appreciate you appreciating your woman and this company.
Yes!!!
Yea who said fupas Aren't good .
As someone said, we appreciate you appreciating your lady and this company
"Why would you create...a perfect image to sell to imperfect consumers?" Well said!
A lot of folks are built like a sack of potatoes. We need to fit into jeans too 😂😂
😂🤣😂
I am cutting out the good food from my diet! You just said potato! Now I want mashed potatoes, fried potatoes, hash browns...anything. I'm over here good and mad eating baby carrots 🥕 🤪 🤣 I am trying to lose weight because my knees hurt so much. But, even when I do lose weight, I will still be plus sized. And, that is alright with me. My goal is a size 14. Currently I am an 18 or 20. I have an hourglass figure, but some jerk dropped in some extra sand, right on my tummy! 🤣🤣🤣
Lol.
busted can of biscuits over here...
🤣🤣
people love to hype up plus size women if they’re the “right” kind of plus size (curvy, slim waist, thick thighs, etc). more companies need to have models with ALL different body types!
FACTS!!
I wholeheartedly agree with you! I was thinking the same thing
Check out the models on the CheekBoss website. Talk about a fair variety of body types. Wow😏
Yes! Exactly!! You’re only an acceptable plus size if you are hourglass with flat tummies 😤
I mean fenty is doing a amazing job.
I was literally just telling a co-worker about how I appreciate that Torrid shows most of thier swimsuits on multiple sized models. It really helps with being able to see what they will look like on your body.
It is sad that people can't just leave folks be! That "bad built" lady being paid by Torrid, while the folks clowning forking over thier money TO Torrid!
That part.
🎯
Or they can't even afford Torrid hahahaha
I never understood why plus size catalogs used very thin women to model the clothes. That is not realistic.
.....while Torrid and their models are laughing all the way to the bank. I love it.
My body is shaped like this and Im not even plus sized. This is reality.
My best friend growing up too. Its so hard to buy well fitting clothes with an apple shaped body. Not only are clothes not displayed on your body type there are very very few if any options cut for you. I think its actually great torrid cuts for not just plus sizes but also different body shapes. No matter what size in the spectrum you are apple bodies are getting a raw deal in fashion.
🙂
Same! Size 12, very thin legs, full booty and stomach.
Same an apple shaped body is what I have.
Same! Even when I was a size 2 when I was younger I had that shape lol
Perfectly put. “My plus size don’t look like your plus size.”
Perfect.
“You know how many women just at my local Walmart are built like this? Over 12”💀
12 was so specific 🤣
It's true tho

@@TMBenton86 yees sis 💖
I am a woman with whole lot of stomach and almost no butt. I used to hate trying on clothes bc I knew I would look awful in them and never purchased clothes. Just bc some of us don't have body shapes like celebrities or models don't mean we're not just as beautiful. Keep buying clothes you love and don't worry about what negative things ppl say. Its what you think about yourself!!!!!!
Agreed!(:
I have that same body shape. Clothes that fit in stomach area was soooo baggy. Clothes that fit in butt was waaay to tight in stomach area.
I have no clue why this was an issue.... everyone wants "real" models.... shes obviously a real person!
apparently “real” only means hourglass or pear shaped to some people.
All human models are real models. Celebrities are real people, it's just that they have high end jobs. Rich people are people, too.

As an “older”, plus size woman, with MANY friends who are shaped exactly like this model, I feel like it’s about time that THEY are actually able to find jeans that will FIT their body type! Way to go Torrid!!😊
I hope that model is ok and not somewhere depressed when we all have at least one auntie or cousin shaped like that. Many plus women are top heavy with little legs. People attack brands for using models that are all shaped the same but when variety is given they shame the models.
exactly. remember the H&M add with the little black girl and her unkempt natural hair? thats what this reminds me of. i think that lil girl's mom got threats or taunts. it was ridiculous.
I hope she’s laughing all the way to the bank and to her next photo shoot/modeling gig. Eff these people! Folks be concerned about the wrong thing, and all the while miserable in their own lives
she's probably ok...de-pressing that check from Torrid into her bank account lol
I was thinking the same thing, bless her heart. I know that if I had been all excited about my photo shoot with Torrid and then this happened, I would be hurt. Idk if the money would make it better either because you would be expecting to be accepted by your peers and other women who look like you and then all of a sudden people are talking about it everywhere. I really do feel sad for her.
Love when the use big ladys am a big woman!! And it mice to see that cause yes at least we now how we look!!👌💯💯💯💯💯💯🔥
I see that body shape on a regular basis... Torrid told no lies.
You are completely right, people come in all shapes and sizes!
Amen 👏
But when you have fat in that area there could be a lot of fat on her organs. It’s deeper than that!
We are consistently bombarded with what the industry thinks is the normal body we have convinced ourselves this model is deformed or trolling. Meanwhile Trya Banks, Tess Holiday, and the rest use Photoshop after a successful shoot. We need to get over it.

When I was in 7th grade, a guy I had a crush on basically bullied a teacher that was “built like that” to the point that she quit. I didn’t know about it till they switched my schedule, I remember being so mad at him for disrespecting her, that first day after my schedule changed I stopped liking him. I honestly thought she was very beautiful, still to this day, I hope she’s doing fine.
That's awful! And the teacher couldn't even clown him back due to her job. smh
@@hpr2008 yeah but when other kids found out he was the reason for her leaving. they started bullying him.
@@ifallapart2000 Rightfully so! I hope he got a taste of his own medicine!
Your teacher, an adult, did not get bullied by a 12 year old boy. If an adult teacher, felt that threatened by comments from a child then she had other issues and classroom management was only one of them. Your crush did not deserve to be accused of running her off.
@@djuanaberuk9908 It wasn’t just things he was saying but also what he was doing. Honestly that fact that I said bullying was to put it lightly. He ended up getting expelled anyway. So it don’t really matter.

My sister is shaped this way and can’t find good jeans anywhere. So she buys super baggy jeans and then feels insecure and has no confidence. I’m glad she’s able to see ppl that look like her. And F anyone who has issue w it. Period!
I have PCOS (Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome), a hormone disorder that causes me to have a body shape similar to the model. The hormone imbalance with testosterone causes a lot of women with the disorder to collect the majority of our weight around our waistlines. I have lost over 100 lbs and am now a size 12/14, but my body still looks pretty similar to the model's. If it were down to dieting and the way I eat, then of course I would not look like this, but I have a disorder and that's just how my body distributes weight. I'm tired of being judged over it, people will stare at your stomach or judge you for having a small butt like you have any control over it. I am learning to love myself and be grateful for a body that has been through so much and allows me to breathe, move, and live the life I want. I appreciate when anyone puts a spotlight on apple-shaped women, we are often left out of the plus size visibility movement because we aren't the "right" kind of fat
I have PCOS, and yeah, my weight is distributed like this, too. Congrats on your weight loss, 100 lbs down is amazing 💗
@@sophievanderbilt1325 thank you so much! It hasn't been easy but I've been maintaining my weight loss for a year and a half. Stay strong out there and always recognize your own beauty 💗
Pcos is a pain in the ass🙄 congrats on your weight loss girlie I'm down 25-ish pounds as of next week!!

I mean, it’s realistic? May not be the “ideal” hourglass plus-size shape, but this is way more common. I see a loooot of folks shaped like this in the wild.
Technically, it's realistic a lot of women.
not the wild 🤣
the wild 😂😂😂😂
The wild bro 😭😭😭😭
Lol in the wild! 🤣
I appreciate a fupa when buying clothes. I hate that I can’t envision what clothes will look like on me. What the industry wants is for us to continue buying clothes and shit for the bodies we WISH we had. Screw that! I’m a plus size hourglass hiding a midsize pumpkin under her shirt
I had to look up "fupa". ☺️
You are hilarious. But I agree I hate trying to buy clothes online and trying to envision what it would look like on me. When the model isn’t shaped like me.
I dont know you but i love your realness 😆 💜💜
Fupa?
@@perri_6 I've always called it my front butt...lol I had to look it up to😂
"I have a cousin who has a head like hey Arnold... Okayy????" I had to pause the video to finish laughing 🤣😂
This reminds of the time Nike put out an ad with plus size females and people were outraged. People yell and say you're fat and need to work and then Nike comes out with a line for plus size. Those same people were yelling for them to not be wearing the clothes. So what are they to wear then? I am sick of people fat shaming and skinny shaming. We are different in our own ways and it needs to be accepted. If you don't like the way I look, please don't look at me and keep it to yourself.
“We need to get to a point where we remember what real bodies look like.”
Amen! Beautifully said!
Yes!
Finally apple shapes are getting recognized, yes we exist, and we're bad bishes too!💯
Period 💯
I agree
YAS🙌🙌🙌
💯💯💯🙌🏾
Not every plus size girl has a booty or thick legs. I’m one of them.
It's honestly bad enough that we plus size women are already judged by the rest of society, now we gotta be tearing each other down too?? It's honestly pathetic.
She looks like a lot of women in this world. I'm finally happy a company a clothing company is showing a realistic looking woman. People want real but get offended when you give them real.
What’s funny is I bet most of the people mad at this ad are shaped exactly like her. Some people can’t stand reality, this is a very common plus size woman body.
You're probably right!
That's right! The real deal, don't look like no bbl or tummy tuck to me. 💯
A lot of internalized hatred for sure!
I dont think itll be most ppl. But this body type is way more common than the hourglass for sure
This is my body type. I'm tired of every plus size ad being for an hourglass figure with a flat stomach.
I saw the ad and placed a $100 order that day because I support businesses being honest in their portrayal of plus sized clothing proportions and fit. Waiting on my order as we speak
I know several women that are Apple shaped way to go Torrid!
Exactly. THIS is body positivity. Appreciating all body shapes
*I'm* shaped this way!
That's not apple, but I get it lol.
I think people who get upset about the ad are the ones who DON'T want to accept the truth about what they truly look like in certain clothes. Its ok for me. I'll find whats best suited for me
She’s diamond shaped... I liked that they did this ad.
I've noticed that even on plus size websites, they're not just picking any old big girl. They're picking models of a certain shape. You still have to have what's considered a "desirable" shape even for a plus size model. I respect that they are representing different plus size shapes.
Monet I.
I absolutely agree. And what’s so funny about that is I can remember a time when the ‘thick thighs, big booty’ look wasn’t even considered “desirable” by mainstream media. In the late 90s/early 2000s if you were built like that you’d be considered fat and folks would say you had a “ghetto booty”. The goalposts are constantly moving and people are never going to have ‘perfect’ bodies. If Torrid wants to be inclusive to all bodies, then good for them.
Thiiiissss! I noticed this too!
Right! Cause their firm fat chicks have me adding all kinds of stuff in my cart then when it's time to pay I have my 'come to Jesus moment'. I visualize my body all girdled up in the outfit and start removing from cart.😂
Agreed. Let's keep it real and represent the population not the popular opinion.
Monet I. Exactly! Like Ashley Graham. It’s seems they always try to pick the most ‘in proportion’ plus sized model. But straight or curvy most of us are not perfectly in proportion. 🤷🏽♀️
I wish more places showed real bodies. Not everyone is perfectly shaped like all the models they show. KUDOS FOR TORRID! I RESPECT THEM MORE FOR DOING THAT.

To be honest, I was one of those people saying wth did they use this pic? Also being honest, this is what turned me away from purchasing these Jean's. I usually look at models more built as I am. I am plus sized. I do have my own "big girl" issues. UK have some big behind th highs and legs. My weight is pretty much evened out, er'thing big. But sometimes it may take a video like this to make us see things differently. So I'm glad this has been brought to attention. I bbn have a few friends and a fam who are built similar and 1 who has cried to me about it. It seriously broke my heart to hear that she felt that way. So thanks for this reminder Ejspeaks!
So, I wonder if these plus size women that were mad about the ad didn’t want to admit that’s how they would look in them? They may be living in denial. 😂
That's totally what it is! I know I'm shaped like this and was shocked..like ok 1 time for us odd shaped girls! 👏🏽👏🏽 Some just don't know how to be honest with themselves.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Waaaay down in 'de Nile'.
Krystle TheGemini lol odd shaped
I see a lot of plus-sized women who are absolutely not shaped like that it's interesting though
People “lets be inclusive to all body types.” Torrid:Okay! People:EW NOT ALL🤣
Lmaooooooo righh
This reminds me of that ad where people were mad that the little black girl's hair was in a messy pony tail. I guess they felt she was being disrespected by the campaign. In reality she was being singled out and bullied by the people who were offended because all the other races also had messy hair. That was the theme. God forbid a lil black girl feel she's cute even if her hair is messy
I'm built like the model. I haven't worn jeans in probably over 5 years. This ad is actually making me consider trying jeans again. Torrid 100% knows their audience, and this is super effective for people who actually matter to them. I hope this sets a precedent in the industry!
Try them! I think they look great on the model. Might as well embrace your body instead of going around being miserable about it because it's with you for life and who wants to be miserable their whole life? That's my motto anyways. Hope you can find some you like! 😊
Nothing offensive at all about it. The comments insulting this woman who has a very common body shape is what’s offensive. She got her coin they sound mad tho
it shows you that the "body positivity" movement still got a long way to go when we still only value "curves" when most women don't even got all them curves. it's like when the black girl ad when her hair was natural and the natural hair community was like "y'all got this baby lookin a hot mess with her nappy hair" like WTF. Like you said we don't even GAF about reality anymore social media definitely changing our perceptions
Preach. Period.
“I have a cousin with a head like hey Arnold” 😂
That cousin watching 😳

Hey prismo have any pickles
@@danielleluma4681 👁🏈👁
I never thought I'd meet prismo here
As someone who has been describing her body shape as "looking like Danny DeVito" for years I am _thrilled_ to see more diversity in (plus sized, since "regular" sizes still only seem to have incredibly slim models) clothing ads! My and my teeny weeny lil twig legs have been waiting YEARS to see our apple-on-a-stick body shape represented in clothing ads because now I actually have a decent idea how they might look on me, which is, I dunno, really helpful.
Now I'll just be waiting for people to start making shorts that don't fit me like a goddamn parachute, thanks.
In this covid era, we can’t go to the store and try things on... this ad is perfect as is, I need to be able to see how what I may look like...
My thing is why would u want it to fit like that? Those pants look uncomfortable and impossible to take off.
lil toaster which is why the ad is great, people built like this can decide if that’s a look they think suits them, some people might really like it and think they look great whilst others with the same body shape might not like it, at least this way it’s a realistic representation rather than girls like this buying clothes from hourglass models and being disappointed when they put it on
@@stellacross8228 right! Plus there are other ways to style these Jeans so that they serve their purpose with style🤷🏾♀️
EJ: my cousin looks like hey Arnold
EJ’s cousins trying to figure out who she’s talking about: 👁👄👁

Speak that! People KNOW when they put these pants on that is what they'd look like, but don't want to ADMIT it!
"You know you fluffy, ma'am!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
Lol fluffy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's beyond fluffy...we strictly in big 'un territory at this point, but I'm here for the representation! ♡
🤣🤣🤣
Advertisements like this are needed because they show REAL LIFE depictions of women of all shapes. Not everyone has a perfect hourglass shape and that deserves representation because everyone should see how clothes would fit on their respective bodies.
I'm apple shaped so I appreciate it. Torrid got coats for bigger arms now too. I was so happy.
Same 🍎
That's awesome! I hate be having to get a coat a size or two up (making it bigger than need be) because of the arms
Same, let me go check torrid out!
Me too!🍎 I appreciate the representation realistic and different body shapes. Dont sell me a dream, when I first saw the ad I was excited and felt pretty good about myself.
Don’t forget the boots to
The fashion nova models really irritate me, those are definitely not realistic images of women.
I hate their ads.
Went up there the other day and was thinking that everybody look like they had some type of work done
Fashion Nova also doesn't post up dark skin women, they only post up racially ambiguous women.
@@universoulqueen5884 Exactly
Omgggg yes I hate that they use models that are all built the same.
Isn't everyone preaching about not body shaming and inclusiveness nowadays? Well, Torrid represented. How dare those ppl complain about this woman's body. Be for real, how many plus sized women have a flat stomach 🤨 Shoe, even some slimmer women have some kinda pooch or something. Ppl can really be ridiculous. I miss the days when ppl didn't complain about every little thing. Now, everything that hits the media, someone is offended, someone is mad, someone didn't like it, etc. It's all so draining and toxic. Imo, just stick to complaining about serious issues. Great job Torrid!👏🏾👏🏾 Keep representing real women.
Girl u know better keep speaking the truth...cuz that's absolutely sooo true!!! Couldn't have said it better myself sis👍
Thank you. I definitely will 😊
I appreciate the stores now showing different bodies. It gives me a better idea of how it will fit in me. And since this pandemic, I’m well on my way to looking like the Torrid model. Thank you for making me feel seen!
Right? I don't look the plus size models. I am not 5' 9", hour glass, without a fupa. I am short, pear shaped, and my fupa likes to fupe. 😂
🤣🤣....❤👑💎
Fupa?
@@tikinew4125 "Fat Upper Pubic Area". Had to look this one up tbh 😅
“My fupa likes to fupe”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fupas gonna fupe!
I agree with you 100%. I have a close friend that shapes exactly like that and am sure would appreciate the fact that Torrid is thinking about people like her. It's funny that social media has now become the mirror image of what magazines have been reflecting for many years, and people bashed those magazines for doing the very same thing - demonstrating fantasies instead of reality.
She is built like Humpty Dumpty, but so are most people out here. LOL. I'm not mad at them. I was watching Rihanna's Savage show last night and I said I give her props for having every size, color, and age in her show. The is no such thing as perfect.
I’m in tears 😂😂😂😂
Right.
😂🤣 Done after Humpty Dumpty!🤣
I’m 😭 Crying!!! 😆🤣😂
Yeas I saw Savage too. Fab show. Loved it
i aint plus sized but im def built like this. not everybody got them curves and hips and all dat. i'm here for it!
I actually appreciate the accuracy because some jeans be looking real cute on the mannequin until I try them on and then I feel some type of way 😒
Okay!! Indeed! Say it louder for the folk in the back of the balcony so they can hear you 🗣🗣👏🏽👏🏽
Yup
You know....no matter what, don't we all, in general, "feel some kind of way"? 💁🏽♀️
EXACTLY
🥰
To me, it absolutely makes sense for the model to look realistic... however, we live in a society where people want to see and emulate perfection...even when they themselves are imperfect. They don't want the model to look like what they see in the mirror. They want the model to look like Beyonce so they can fool themselves into thinking they can look like Beyonce too... even though they may be built like a mini fridge. 🤷♀️
😂😂😂😂
😁😂
And even Bey pays a mint to keep her look and image “just so.”
A mini fridge....😌💔
Good point
Listen!! Sis is me. We are apples together and guess what?! I’m confident, happily married and dressed to the 9
♥️
Real women! Real bodies!!! Kudos to Torrid. Love their bombshell diva line🔥🔥🔥
More people need to see this. Imagine how the model (and other women that are this shape) feel after reading those comments. It breaks my heart really.
Me being a girl who has more stomach than she does ass reallyyyy appreciates this ad. If I wore those fashion nova jeans my kitty would be begging for some air!!😂 this ad is perfectly imperfect, just like the model is and just like millions of girls around the world💜
BootyDo
Yeah! You want to see how jeans will actually look on your body!
This just shows the hypocrisy of the “body positivity” movement.
How? Those ppl who hated the ad never told you that they were down with that movement.
How?
@@westworld237 there is a tendency to accept only plus sized women who fit the ratio of the hourglass figure. Plus sized models virtually all fit this one cookie cutter shape, and also miraculously have very little fat in their faces. They often do not look like the overwhelming majority of fat woman in America.
Nah the majority of us that support the movement are not the ones that are against this. It's the fat phobic individuals and the fake body positive individuals that don't understand that fat ppl should be accepted, they're human and all their shapes are valid even though they aren't skinny. While its a tendency for society to only want to see women with pear and hourglass shaped bodies people that truly support body positivity disagree with that mentality.
Fat people are still hated regardless so it's not a strike against the movement. It's just humans being humans
I completely agree Ej! I like that the pictures give us a realistic idea of what the clothes will look like on real people!
All of my auntys have what we call that “front bum” and some cousins be well on their way too. Shoot maybe even me 😂. I really liked the ad Its REAL.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER: It’s inside what counts and when Jesus comes back He ain’t gonna be looking out for fashionova customers
That's the truth
@Gmail Account Genetics, maybe hormonal.
When Jesus come back.... ok....😀😀😀😀😀
@@TheSingingMystic87 Fupa!
Aka....ass-belly.
Hey Arnold caught me off guard lol I'm dying
I’M built like that model. I got a muffin top that looks like that in jeans so when I wear jeans, I wear a baggy hoodie because I don’t like how it looks. I exercise everyday but I have stomach problems so it’s hard for me to lose the weight easier than other people and that’s okay. Everyone is made different and that’s what makes them... them.
Keep on the hard work and stay healthy
try A line skirts if you don't feel confident in jeans.
So glad you are so real. We complained that models didn't look like us (body types) now they complain because they do?????
Haha!!! I mean it’s pretty realistic...the majority of us are average everyday people doing the best with what we got😝🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🖤🖤🖤🖤🙏🏿🙏🏿
REGARDLESS OF HER SHAPE! SHES HUMAN AND DESERVES RESPECT. idc if she was the only person on earth built like that, RESPECT THAT PERSON. That’s why you can’t listen to people.
🤣2 types of native women bodies: the ‘princess’ type y’all see in movies, and then there’s my reality: all gut, no butt. The ad was perfect! 🤗
Throw in some commodity food and even the ‘princess’ types are all gut no butt 🤣
My Ojibwe friend calls it the 'native long back'
That's how Mexican are either curvy and small or the cereal box. I'm a cereal box 🤣
This is the comment I was about to make!!!! Most northern native women are shaped exactly like this!! ❤️❤️❤️
You are so right...we need images of reality...
Most plus size women aren't slim thick and people need to understand that, it's nice to see a women with that realistic body type
Omg I’m dying laughing bc I have the Gru body type and never thought of it like that!!! Now my kids are true minions lol!!!
LOL me too girl 🤣
I’m sitting here, wearing my waist trainer, RIGHT NAH, and I can say I appreciate Torrid for this. I’m 5’8, about 165-170, and my shape isn’t like this, BUT I still appreciate seeing this as reminder of who the actual customers are. Why do ppl think influencers are soo marketable? And why brick and mortar stores are steadily going under? The clearance racks with xs-Smalls, that’s why. Other companies, know your audience. Lemme see some fupas, jeans that actually have support/ hold in your muffin top/pudge WITHOUT surgery. Yes Torrid. Just yeeees. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I thought people wanted models to have “realistic bodies”. But then when they show a realistic body, they get mad? I’m so confused
