Chico’s FAS Creates Intimates Brand TellTale

Just in time for National Lingerie Day, Chico’s FAS, parent company to women’s apparel and accessory retailer Chico’s, is launching bra and underwear brand TellTale. The intimates line will start with seven collections, ranging from sexy to comfortable to functional. And with names like The Ghoster or The Romantic, the idea is to offer a little something for everyone. “No woman is one thing,” Kimberly Grabel, general manager, or “ringleader,” of TellTale, told WWD.   TellTale’s Influencer collection.  The collections include a mix of push-up bras and bralettes in everything from cotton to see-through mesh, as well as underwear and bodysuits. The target audience, Grabel said, is the “new adult woman,” somewhere between 30 to 35. “She’s not fully set in her ways,” Grabel explained. “She hasn’t had kids yet. Or, maybe she’s had a baby, but she takes the baby out with all her friends on a Saturday night for dinner, because she’s in denial that this baby is going to change her life. So, she’s kind of in that life stage.” The Lover collection is part of the new TellTale brand.  Courtesy Mary van Praag, brand president of Chico’s other intimates and apparel brand Soma, will run TellTale. Products are available exclusively at MyTellTale.com,
