We think the former Olympian and current spokesperson for the transgender community couldn't be a better fit for the Swedish retailer, as the brand continues to celebrate diversity through different body shapes, sizes and cultures.

With Instagram as a culprit (simply search #BodyGoals), an increasing number of body sculpting, liposuction and fat transfer procedures are being requested by women striving to meet this nearly impossible standard. Inspired by brands and celebrities who've taken a body-positive stance, we remain hopeful that 2016 continues to shed light on diversity and celebrate every shape and size for women in the truest form.
