Inside the TORRID Meets Betsey Johnson Collection
There is a personal spin to this collaboration, too! TORRIDโs CEOโs, Liz Muรฑoz has long been a fan of Betsey Johnson, all the way back in the โ80s! But, back then, plus size options was NOT a thoughtโฆ until now!
โThis TORRID Meets Betsey Johnson Collection was a tremendous honor. I might not be in this business today if it wasnโt for Betsey and all sheโs done for fashion โ especially women in fashionโ saidย Lizย Muรฑoz, CEO at TORRID
With this collection, we get โready-to-wear, accessories and intimates that evoke a rocker edge, while being young and playful.โย
And this is a great matchupโฆ especially when you think back to the early Torrid days! Punk, rock, grunge, and all the attitude that came along with it. I imagine this collection will be a hit with both the late Gen Xers and the early millennialsโฆ maybe?
Listenโฆ the love does NOT just stop with Liz either. Torrid asked their audience who they would love to see a collaboration with, and there was an overwhelming response for Betsey Johnson.
This just makes so much sense! ย
โI love women of all sizes and shapes. The best thing is- I know I can depend on Torrid for knowing how to make the clothes fit great. To me- thatโs the secret.โ Betsey Johnson
The TORRID Meets Betsey Johnson collection channels Betsey Johnsonโs signature pink rock fashion flair and gives us a Puff Sleeve Corset Top, Tartan Strapless Dress, Tartan Button Front Blazer, Hook and Eye Peplum Jacket and Silver Metallic Tulle Dress.ย
And that is JUST what we knowโฆ

Kudos to them for making this happen!
Which items have your attention? Does this collab speak to you!?!
Who else could you see owning a collaboration like this? Making their runway options available in plus sizes like this? After all, these collabs make plus size fashion a bit more accessible, right?!ย
I would bet, it is no longer a pipe dream to think about wearing a high end or household name in our sizesโฆ right?ย
Excited to read this! I have loved her stuff since I was a kid but always had to settle for a hand bag.
