Champion announced Saweetie as the brand’s first-ever Global Culture Consultant. Champion revealed her first campaign with the company titled “Get It Girl” that spotlights stylish solutions that female athletes can feel comfortable in, both on and off the field.
The brand plans to give women the stage they deserve by spotlighting the “Champion Circle,” a group of 12 diverse, female collegiate athletes and giving them the “Get it Girl” confidence to play by their own rules and look good doing it. Each member of the “Champion Circle” featured in the new campaign was outfitted in gear that highlights their unique flair, swagger and skill, while showcasing the latest Champion collections, including Soft Touch Sports Bras & Leggings. Champion also used a female-led production team, spearheaded by renowned Director, Hannah Lux Davis, and famed photographer, Leeor Wild.
“We’re proud to name Saweetie as our first-ever Global Culture Consultant to help empower women to be their own Champion,” said John Shumate, Vice President of Global Marketing, Champion. “Saweetie is an inspiration for self-expression and with her “Get It Girl” anthem, we want to unite all women with Champion athleticwear solutions designed for every body, every shape and every workout.”
Champion works daily to empower women and raise the bar for comfort and style, giving women the confidence to play by their own rules. Champion’s collection of trusted sports bras and leggings are created with a deep understanding of women’s bodies in motion. This translates to innovative products that allow athletes to do more.
“My relationship with Champion runs deep, as an athlete and lover of streetwear,” said Saweetie. “It’s been a go-to brand since high school! This campaign and partnership hit me on a personal level and I couldn’t be prouder to help all my sporty-icy girls out there feel empowered with self-love and confidence. When you feel good wearing Champion, the sky’s the limit.”
