Over the last few years, Aerie has made major moves as a brand that's known for encouraging self-love. Between its unretouched ad campaigns [1] and work with models of all shapes and sizes [2], its latest step toward inclusivity should come as no surprise. The brand announced the addition of five new nude shades to its Real Me collection [3], which includes "breathable" bras, briefs, and thongs.
The new shades range from light to dark brown and are named after the qualities of the quintessential Aerie girl — Honesty, Inspiration, Strength, Energy, and Confidence. Not only is the "barely there" collection incredibly comfortable, but select styles also include inspirational phrases to really emphasize the body-positive movement. The Real Me collection launched earlier this Summer, but the new shades will be available online [4] and in stores starting Aug. 31, with prices ranging from $15 to $40.
