Rebel Wilson Launching Plus-Size Fashion Collection
Just in time for the Friday release of “Pitch Perfect 2,” actress Rebel Wilson announced this week sheâs joining forces with plus-size clothing brand Torrid to launch her own fashion collection.
âRebel for Torrid,â a limited-edition âholiday collection,â will hit stores in November, according to a Tuesday press release. According to the release, the company is planning a second Wilson collection for Spring 2016.
âIâve never really felt like there’s a brand out there in the plus size world that is creating cool stuff, that fits well and is good quality yet affordable,â Wilson said in the release. âIt’s really only been in the last few years that I’ve seen companies try. So it was awesome to team with Torrid, who I think are doing such a great job in making plus size fashion relevant and dope.â
Wilson goes on to say that sheâs âbeen putting [her] unique style and personal loves into the clothing.â
She confirmed the announcement on Twitter, reassuring her fans that if theyâre âtoo skinnyâ for her clothes, they âcan buy the bagâ:

The collection, which will feature around 25 different pieces, is just the latest body-positive move for the 35-year-old Australian native, who told âExtraâ in 2013, âI think that women out there should just be happy with how they look and they shouldn’t really try to conform to any stereotype. Just be happy and hopefully healthy.â
