Martin and Park are the latest of several new executive appointments at Torrid. CEO Lisa Harper joined the size 10 to 30 apparel retailer in May when former CEO Liz Muñoz stepped into the newly created position of Chief Creative Officer. Muñoz, who led Torrid through the COVID-19 pandemic, now manages product, design, product development, fabrication, sourcing, technical fit, creative marketing and merchandising.
