Lululemon founder faces backlash for blasting company's diversity, inclusion efforts

By WNews 1 Min Read

Lululemon’s controversial founder Chip Wilson is again facing criticism for his latest remarks regarding the company’s diversity and inclusion efforts.

In a recent article by Forbes, Wilson objected to the company’s use of models with a range of body types, whom he said looked “unhealthy,” “sickly” and “not inspirational.”

“They’re trying to become like the Gap, everything to everybody,” Wilson said in an interview with the magazine.

“And I think the definition of a brand is that you’re not everything to everybody … You’ve got to be clear that you don’t want certain customers coming in.”
