By now you have heard that Torrid is in a fashion collaboration with Australian Actress and Comedienne, Rebel Wilson. If you love comedy and movies you will know she is from the very popular Pitch Perfect, Bride's Maid, and Night at the Museum movies. I like that whatever anyone says about her and her body type, she does not let it bother her. I have seen her in full body tights, pleather and even in her underwear. Her confidence is totally curvilicious!
Whenever she makes appearances I am always interested to see what she wears. Over the years her style has evolved, as does anyone's, who discovers and develops their own style sense. So learning about her collaboration with one of my favorite fashion haunts, Torrid...what a match made in curvy-land!
On my recent visit to Torrid, I loved the tee shirts created by Rebel. Her designs were quirky, bold and colorful. Though I really loved the tees I honestly felt the cost for a tee was too high. I just couldn't see myself paying $58 for a tee shirt, sorry Rebel! There was a poster hanging on the wall in the store with a model wearing a skirt from the line. It was a pleather/fabric number with an A-Line cut. I loved the styling and gravitated towards it on the rack. I also noticed a zippered style dress in the same A-line cut. It had a full skirted look I have been seeing lately in the stores. The fabric of the dress reminded me of a scuba diver's suit. I was intrigued!
In the fitting room, the fit of the skirt was perfect and I loved it. With the leather look in front and the stretch fabric in back, what a gorgeous look on my derriere. The dress was an amazing fit as well. The best thing about the style? Rebel gave us a style-fit that really complements our curves. The dress is sleeve less tank style yet it kept my body covered with no gaping at the arm holes. The zippered front went to the waist, and the full skirt was not too full so I felt really feminine instead of enourmous in it. I think I found my Holiday dress! Every woman needs an LBD (Little Black Dress).
I walked out of the store feeling quite satisfied with my fashion find from this collaboration, especially because Torrid was having a BOGOHO (Buy one Get One Half Off) on that day! Woot! I think I may just visit again just to get a tee shirt....I know, don't you just hate when you do that!lol!
