INCLUSIVE SIZING: 6 TO 30+ AU 👑
THE BEGINNING OF EMPRESS ATHLETICUS
Brittany Lewin (aka B) founded Empress Athleticus on the 13th of March 2021 with the vision of creating a brand that catered to all women.
Brittany's mission was to design activewear and intimates that were breathable, squat proof, and offered low tummy control with no camel toe, ensuring all women could feel comfortable and confident.
“We believe in empowering women to embrace their bodies, and that's why we're dedicated to offering a size range of 6 to 30+ in our activewear and intimates collections.” - Brittany Lewin

MEET OUR DIRECTOR...
BRITTANY LEWIN
"When I was asked as a child: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" My answer was never conventional. I always knew I wanted to make a change, but at that point, I had no idea how.
As I grew up, I felt pressured by society to be "successful" and I thought that "success" was determined by how much money or things I had. So I did what most of us do, and sacrificed my health by working extremely long and stressful years to do whatever was necessary to be "Successful". But for what? I had no life, my mental health was all over the place and my hormones were completely out of sync.
It was time to make a change and focus on my WHY.
I left a General Manager position at a fashion brand I grew for 7 long years and started to rebuild what was important to me, whilst surrounding myself with good positive people.
My goal is to inspire and teach women to build their own paths... To feel comfortable and confident in their own skin, and to create true success in their own lives.
"Hustle Culture" is a thing of the past. Being successful is based on freedom and happiness... And right now, I am happy, I am healthy and I am free to do what makes me feel truly fulfilled."
