WWE News: Kaitlyn Discusses Life After WWE, Lilian Garcia Recovering After Her Knee Surgery

– WWE.com recently interviewed former WWE Diva Kaitlyn, who spoke about life after one year after departing from the WWE and her current business enterprises.

On her clothing business Celestial Bodiez: “It’s kind of a cool story. When I was wrestling, the seamstresses on the road with us would always put this ruching — this special seam in the rear — in all of my outfits. It was so flattering, and I was so obsessed that for everything I had made, I would always have that ruching put in. I have coined it ‘Booty Scrunch,’ because that’s basically what it is. In layman’s terms, it scrunches the fabric on your booty in a way that makes it more flattering, and I was just kind of asking myself, ‘Why isn’t anyone else doing this on workout pants or anything spandexy?’ So that’s kind of where it originated. You see it a lot in swimsuits, but I’ve come to find out that it’s a lot harder to put into activewear because the materials are made to last and move with you, and it’s hard to put that seam in. I went through so many prototypes, and I wanted to punch myself in the face because I didn’t think I was going to get it right. Even when we launched last June, my patterns now are so different from when I started, because whenever I would come up with a new batch, I would tweak the patterns based on the feedback I would get on social media.”

On how being a Diva helped her prepare to be an entrepreneur: “It’s totally different in some aspects and it’s completely the same in others. When you’re part of WWE, you are part of a huge brand and a huge company, but you’re also a brand yourself. So we always made sure that we had it together when we got on an airplane or when we walked into an arena because you have to have a certain image to uphold. You are your own brand. Going off that, it pays because I’m completely in charge of my brand now.”
