“I’m thrilled to join the Savage X Fenty family,” Super said. “The brand is a major powerhouse in the lingerie and apparel industry and its unwavering commitment to celebrating inclusivity and fearlessness is inspiring.”

The role shift took place on Monday with the singer remaining at the company as an executive chair.

In an Instagram post last Thursday, Super announced that she would be a board member at the company in addition to being CEO.

According to her LinkedIn page, Super describes herself as a “CEO with record of transformational leadership, vision and profitable growth”.

Her most recent job was at Anthropologie Group where she was the brand’s global CEO for over four years. In 2017, she was honoured by Forbes as one of 40 Women to Watch Over 40.

Super lives in Palm Springs, California, with her wife, Michele Sizemore. Sizemore also works in the fashion industry as Gap’s senior vice-president of global product development and supply chain, according to her LinkedIn page.

Outside work, it appears that Super loves to cook and bake. She frequently posts snaps of her culinary creations on Instagram.

She captioned her most recent post on Saturday, a photo of a Mississippi mud pie she baked following a New York Times recipe: “Probably the last thing I’ll bake for a while.”
