“There’s something so magical and liberating about being in and near the water. Every woman deserves the right to experience that feeling.” ⠀ @manirostom we couldn’t agree more.  ⠀ That’s why we launched the Victory Swim Collection. A range of swimwear for modest women, so no matter their beliefs or values, not a single one of them has to leave the water anymore.  ⠀ #YouCantStopUs #VictorySwim  ⠀ 🎥: @saradunlop and @dominicleungcuts

@kingjames has been the people’s champ ever since he stole the spotlight as a teen. But he’s also a champion of the people, using his platform to ensure all the voices in his community are heard and counted. 👑 ⠀ “It’s about all of us looking in the mirror and saying what can we do better to help change?“ LeBron knows that change doesn’t happen overnight, so his fight for representation goes way beyond the November US election.
