According to an interview between the Orange Is The New Black fan favorite and The Cut, the reaction to the campaign has been overwhelmingly positive. Brooks said:

“I have not really come across too many trolls, which is nice. Women are seeing themselves and are feeling beautiful about their bodies because they’re having people who are bold enough to say that they’re fearless in their skin.”

Danielle Brooks makes sure to remind people that it is representation that truly changes hearts and mind.

By seeing different types of women on screen and in advertisements, we lessen the societal stigmas that say women should look a certain way. Instead, we make it safe for any woman to feel glamorous and well-dressed. Brooks continues by saying:

“It’s been cool to get their reaction and see women be proud to be in bathing suits and not be afraid of showing stretch marks or whatever.”
