Model, fashion designer and body activist, Ashley Graham has teamed up with Elle Addition to bring consumers a sensual Spring 2018 lingerie collection, dubbed "Everyday Sexy Essentials."
The line, which Graham herself models, is comprised of bras, underwear and loungewear which feature a subtle and natural color palette of rosy pinks and light greys. Each piece is embellished with careful detailing, like bows, ribbons and peek-a-boo keyholes.
When discussing the line is a press release, Graham stated “I always say that your bra is the foundation for your look, and a well-fitting bra that makes you feel good and look good is essential. I’m excited for this collection to launch just before Valentine’s Day so that you can treat your special someone — whether that’s your significant other or you!”
