Sydney Sweeney Enjoys Summer Camp Getaway Amid Challenges Facing Her Lingerie Brand
Sydney Sweeney appears to be putting recent struggles with her lingerie line behind her, enjoying some quality downtime with boyfriend Scooter Braun. The actress, 28, shared glimpses of their “camp ’26” experience on Instagram this past weekend, showcasing playful moments where the couple dressed as Wonder Woman and Superman while engaging in water sports.
The vacation highlights included karaoke sessions with friends, crafting friendship bracelets with children, and jet skiing on a lake-evidence that Sweeney is making the most of her summer despite reports of disappointing sales for her intimate apparel brand, SYRN.
Launched in late January with much fanfare following a viral stunt at the Hollywood Sign, SYRN was positioned as an inclusive lingerie and loungewear label featuring four distinct styles: Seductress, Romantic, Playful, and Comfy. However, sources speaking to media outlets describe the brand’s performance as “a disaster,” suggesting that initial excitement has not translated into strong sales.
Sweeney’s rising star has also been accompanied by controversy. Last year, she found herself at the center of criticism over an American Eagle campaign that played on the word “jeans” and “genes,” which some interpreted as carrying problematic connotations. The actress has consistently defended herself, emphasizing her core values and distancing herself from the negative interpretations.
Further complicating public perception, Sweeney has faced accusations related to political affiliations and marketing choices, including backlash over a limited-edition soap product incorporating her bathwater, which sold out rapidly but sparked debate about her branding strategy.
In the competitive celebrity lingerie market, SYRN contends with established players like Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS and Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty. Some consumers have voiced concerns online regarding SYRN’s sizing options, arguing that the brand’s range may not accommodate many body types effectively. Critics on platforms such as Reddit have called for greater attention to fit and inclusivity, stressing the importance of proper sizing for such intimate garments.
Despite these hurdles, Sydney Sweeney continues to focus on her career and personal life, navigating the complexities of fame and entrepreneurship in equal measure.
