Would recommend looking at the @notsportyrich Instagram, but Cliff’s Notes:Can someone explain what she’s on about with Sporty and Rich
Sporty & Rich made a huuuuge social media push for their apparel. Worn by Rosie Huntington Whitely, et al. The name in itself is problematic as it’s fatphobic and elitist. They market themselves as sustainable, but they don’t share any information about their fabrics, sourcing or factory base. The owner/founder, Emily Oberg, was very rudely responding to customers asking about their orders. Calling them “bleeping idiots”, etc. She was also interviewed for a podcast where she made fun of people with disabilities, used homophobic and racist language and also said she believed immunizations caused autism. She made arrogant comments about getting paid $15k to do an ad for a makeup brand without actually using any of the makeup. The brand blatantly copied vintage labels. Now all of her and the business socials are private.
