Frustrated by shapewear and messy creams, she created size-inclusive, sweat-wicking slip shorts. Bootstrapped and direct-to-consumer, Thigh Society has sold almost 2.5M pairs worldwide, earning praise from The Today Show, Oprah Daily, and NY Times Wirecutter. Ranked the 7th fastest-growing women-led company in Canada, it’s the category creator and leader for chafing, sweat, and modesty solutions. Marnie’s been featured in Forbes, Nasdaq, and Business Insider for her commitment to comfort, inclusivity, and destigmatizing sweat.
