Plus-Size Wellness

Plus-size forms of fitness espouse body positivity

Implications - Plus-size activewear or fitness campaigns change the conversation around health: fitness is no longer about weight loss, but instead about strength and wellness. This re-framing is crucial, as it welcomes plus-size consumers into a sphere that they have been notoriously excluded or otherwise shamed for joining. This ethos of body positivity resonates with younger consumers, who pride themselves on being both inclusive and compassionate.
Workshop Question - How can your brand sell its offerings in a more well-rounded, comprehensive way?
Trend Themes
1. Body Positivity Movement - Brands are changing the conversation around health and wellness by creating campaigns focused on body positivity, welcoming previously excluded consumers to participate in fitness and wellness activities regardless of body size.
2. Plus-size Activewear Trend - Brands are introducing plus-size activewear lines and producing versatile, high-quality garments available in fun and vibrant hues with playful sayings, capitalizing on the consumers' increasing demand for inclusive, stylish, and high-performing fitness apparel.
3. Authentic Representation Advertising - Companies and brands are beginning to showcase authenticity, by casting models that haven't been Photoshopped or adding realistic body size representation to their ads, in order to attract and retain consumers that share these values and prioritize supporting body positive movements.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion & Apparel - Brands in this sector are innovating to offer fashionable activewear with high-performance features and catering to inclusivity to capture loyal customers in this growing athleisure and fitness market.
2. Health & Wellness - This industry is developing more trends and products that cater to individual body types and sizes, promoting body positivity, inclusivity, efficiency, flexibility, and fun, to address needs in an increasingly diverse market of fitness enthusiasts.
3. Marketing & Advertising - Marketing agencies must rethink the traditional advertisement models and embrace authenticity and diversity in their campaigns, or risk getting left behind as more companies prioritize reflecting modern social values to appeal to younger, socially conscious audiences.
