One luxury lingerie brand that always seems to be in the news is Myla. Whether it is stories about their Christmas lingerie corset or models working around a shopping center in Myla lingerie. They certainly do believe in publicity.
The company Myla is in fact two London designers namely Charlotte Semler and Nina Hampson. They had their first store in Notting Hill which opened in 1999. They actually teamed their lingerie in that store with a selection of bedroom toys which ultimately turned out to be a good market move. They then set up a franchise in Mrs Selfridges and opened further stores around London.
In 2004 they went international and today supply many celebrities with lingerie as well as support the cast of Sex and the city.
The aim of Myla is all about seduction whilst being sensual at the same time and anyone has to admit that they seem to have perfected this art down to a tee. In this space of ten years these girls have gone from nothing to supplying A list celebrities with their elegant lingerie. I think that needs a pat on the back. Don’t you?
It’s is now official that the best lingerie ad ever is Agent Provocateur. You know, the one that got banned from everywhere for being to provocative! In the ad Kylie Minogue does a wonderful job of riding a mechanical bull whilst dressed just in her lingerie.
The best part comes at the end though when she says she has proof that Agent Provocateur is the most erotic and sexy lingerie in the world.
Expecting a blatant lie the viewer is then gobsmacked when she asks all the men in the audience to stand up. You can not help but smile when she does this.
The survey was done with ten other lingerie adverts of which Agent Provocateur came in first. To tell the truth the advert works and it does make you want to go out and buy heaps of their see through lingerie. If you have still not seen it then here is a special clip just for you. You will like it I promise.
Did you know that there is a lingerie football league?. I didn’t, I have only just come across this infromation today and I think it is fantastic. Apparently the best lingerie football team is the Dallas Desire who are numerous models by day and then at the weekend kit up in lingerie and football equipment to be lean and mean.
Each team has seven players and name themselves after lingerie names such as passion, bliss and seduction. Chicago, Miami, Philadelphia, New York, Tampa, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Diego and Denver have joined in and the lingerie league is set to go from strength to strength.
Players make their money from the amount of tickets sold and as it seems to be a growing trend it looks like the future will be bringing some good bucks in for these lingerie models. There are of course the critics who says that ladies in lingerie have no place on a football field however if people want to play to see them then who are we to argue?
All my friends know that I love shopping at Passionata. I am even buying up stock from their recent Chanson d’amour collection. I now have more lingerie than I know what to do with but only just discovered today that Passionata is in fact part of the Chantelle French Lingerie company along with Darjeeling. The Chantelle group has been going since 1876 so that will explain why they are experts in fancy lingerie and capture my attention at every moment.
I am more excited however to wait the release of their Spring / summer collection that will feature their new model Bar Refaeli. Photo shoots show that the theme is 1960′s with a bouffant hair, headbands and a summer 60′s look. Colours of lingerie have moved to yellow, blues and flower prints however we still see the lace trims and bows that are so frequently appearing on lingerie everywhere.
Well done to Passionata for supplying to the demand of millions. They know what a women wants to wear and excel in everything they produce. French lingerie can definitely count me as one of the loyal customer.
So all the votes are in and the new angel of fashion lingerie house Victoria’s secret is Kylie Bisutti. I have to admit that she was not my first choice however I am warming to Kylie and think she will do well as long as she can deal with the fame that such a lucrative position brings. Least we not forget she is a newly wed as well and that marriage is going to be tested as Kylie’s husband has to stand by and watch her become one of the world most famous lingerie models.
Wearing the famous lingerie brand wings can bring money, fame and admiration but it all comes at a price. In just three weeks she has beat over 10,000 other hopefuls that wish to walk down that famous catwalk. At such a young age can Kylie Bisutti deal with it all?. It is times like this that I wish I had a crystal ball.
Well only if he is a West ham supporter anyway. Fancy lingerie took on a new dimension when Westham football club announced that they were to release a special edition basque in the clubs colours of claret and blue. The inspiration for this was Kate Perry wearing the original design for her boyfriend Russell Brand at the MTV awards. At £300 each, personally I can think of cheaper ways to delight my man and if I was to spend that amount on fancy lingerie then my choice would of course have to be Victoria’s secret. Sorry for being a killjoy!
Without a doubt the queen of fancy lingerie is Madonna. Her habit of showing off her underwear in public has seen us subjected to every style of fine lingerie possible.
Most of her costumes have been basques, the question we have to ask however is wearing your basque in public tacky? Well of course it is but Madonna is a celebrity so she can get away with it.
Basques are refined pieces of fancy lingerie, mainly used to tempt and delight your man. Whilst they may not be the most comfortable piece of fancy lingerie they will always be the queen when it comes to what they can do for a woman’s body. They present her womanly curves and display her in such a feminine, sophisticated and elegant way.
Madonna has ruined this with her tacky, gold, crotchless basques that get pulled out every time she wants to relive her touring days.
Hopefully now she is getting older Madonna will hang up her basque forever and let it’s reputation return to being the creme de la creme of fancy lingerie.
