One designer that is still relatively unheard of Amor Latino however they are one to watch out for as they seem to be making a name for themselves on the international circuit. They started out in 2000 and more or less dominates the Argentinian market as yes that is where they are based. Their aim is to design lingerie that makes women feel beautiful, sexy and confident.
They do a full range of lingerie including limited and bridal and their favorites materials to work with are satin and lace. Perhaps their best well known collection is the Belle De jour of which the lingerie was inspired by the actual film. An inspiration based on women that are torn to provide for everyday needs or to give into their desires. It is white lace and black polka dot however I do feel they should remove one of their pictures from their websites as the ribs showing on the model are quite disturbing.
Their other collections are the L’hotel collection which focuses on black, violet and dark emerald green. It does have an almost Chinese style inspiration which shows through slightly. The other collection is Isabella which is all about getting back to being natural and a true woman. In all Amor Latino can only go up from here and I have a feeling that they will get there pretty soon.

This is still quite a new novelty to me as I have only just heard of the league. The other team that I read about was the Dallas desires and today I have found out about the San Diego Seductions. If these two lines have not gave it away as to what I am talking about then read on.
I am talking about women wearing lingerie with American football padding to play football of course. All names of the teams are related to lingerie brands and players are paid according to ticket sales.
I am quite surprised as a number of these players are models and I would of thought they wanted to keep their pretty faces intact. perhaps they are relying on the power of air brushing.
Unfortunately the lingerie football league is recently receiving a lot of negative press. Ex players are being sued for speaking out about lack of payment towards medical bills and critics say that women in lingerie have no place on a football field.
I really do feel they have nothing to worry about, the lingerie league is growing from strength to strength and can only attract more fans by the week. Probably a majority of them will be men but hey, who are we to argue?
Triumph held their second lingerie show this year on the 10th December in order to showcase their autumn winter lingerie collection to the unsuspecting public. Whilst it has received rave reviews. I myself am just not that impressed. The whole set up looks like something that was thrown together in two days.
There was that much hype as well about all the famous Bollywood stars attending and to be honest none of them looked really chuffed to be there. Put the show aside and concentrate on the actual lingerie and I don’t think they are up to scratch either.
My unaffected reaction to this lingerie show against all the other reactions make me wonder if perhaps I am comparing everything to Victoria’s secret. If that is indeed the problem then no one has a hope of coming close to the shows or products that Victoria’s secret have produced. If you have not seen the Triumph lingerie show then check it out below and let me know what you think.
I love browsing through the pretty lingerie from Frederick’s of Hollywood. All their collections always seem so fresh and you get the impression that a great deal of time has been taken in the designing, making and stitching of every piece of pretty lingerie. However what a shame it seems that they have shut down the celebrity lingerie museum that they was so famously known for. It stocked items such as
Madonna’s corset from her “who’s that girl?” tour
A negligee and bra worn by Cybil Shephard
Black lace panties of Zsa Zsa Gabor
Boxer shorts worn by Tom Hanks in Forest gump.
Perhaps the most famous incident that the museum was known for was the looting of it during the LA riots where Ava Gardeners bloomer was stolen along with Kathy Segal push up Bra. The looter apparently felt that guilty after wards that he returned the pretty lingerie via way of a neutral vicar!
Ultimo today unveiled their pretty lingerie Christmas range in stores. They choose their pretty lingerie Christmas model for 2009 to be Peaches Geldof. This girl has apparently helped Ultimo to achieve record sales in the past hence the reason for their current choice. To be honest Peaches does not make me want to buy pretty lingerie. I have had a look at the pretty lingerie range on Ultimo’s website and I will not be purchasing from them for Christmas. I do not feel their designs have excelled themselves and Peaches does not do a better job of making the underwear appeal to me. I suspect that Ultimo are aiming for the younger group to be their main customers and I consider this to be a big mistake. After all who has more money to spend on pretty lingerie. A 17 year teenager or a 30 year old woman?
