Actor Olivia Munn is the latest face of shapewear brand Skims, but this time, she’s got a powerful message to share. In collaboration with the Susan G. Komen organization for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Munn bravely bares her mastectomy scars in the campaign. The photographs, shot by artist Vanessa Beecroft, feature the actress modeling Skims’ products, including a nipple illusion bra. This campaign aims to encourage women to get early screenings for breast cancer. Munn was diagnosed with breast cancer last year after extensive testing. She had a double mastectomy and reconstruction surgery as part of her treatment. Initially, she was unsure about showing her scars in the campaign. But she had a change of heart during the photoshoot. She saw her scars as proof of her fight against the disease. The actress hopes that by showing her scars, she can inspire other women who have gone through similar experiences. She believes there's nothing to feel ashamed of, and wants to raise awareness about the importance of early detection. Skims, founded by Kim Kardashian, has always been about empowerment and comfort. This campaign adds another layer to their message, combining beauty and awareness. The brand will donate a portion of their bra sales to Susan G. Komen for breast cancer research and awareness.
