Breaking News: Victoria's Secret Is Coming to the UK

FabSugarUK — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:45:56 -0800

Calling all lingerie fans - there's some exciting news on the horizon! Following the successful launch of Banana Republic, Abercrombie & Fitch and Anthropologie in the UK, another store is rumoured to be crossing the Atlantic. Victoria's Secret has already begun to scout for store locations. Just last week, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (previously the face of Agent Provocateur) was announced as a new Angel taking position as the only British model to represent the brand along with four other new faces; Chanel Iman, Emanuela de Paula, Lindsay Ellingson and Candice Swanepoel.

Now it seems she could have started a trend within Victoria's Secret for a love of all things British as a Regent Street store is supposedly in the pipeline. The Angels will host their annual fashion show on 19th November (just a few weeks after Heidi Klum gave birth) and are expected to recreate George Michael's Freedom video. Would you like to see the store open in the UK?

Sneak Peek! Stella McCartney Intimates, Spring '10

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 12:00:22 -0800

Last Spring's Stella McCartney lingerie offering was colorful, but this time around, the designer is feeling softer with neutral pales, dusty pinks, and lavender. There are 15 groups, each with a cheeky name like Rosie Plotting, Eva Scampering, and Billie Twirling. "This season we looked at the '20s and '50s, which comes through the range in silhouette and specially developed embroidery and gold retro hardware," McCartney said. Look forward to prints like florals, feathers, and ladybugs, and fabrics like tulle, mesh, and silk crepe de chine. Prices range from $45 to $195 - the Spring '10 line will land at Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys New York, and Bloomingdale’s.

With all the talk of the pending Jimmy Choo for H&M collection, it's easy to forget the other designer collaboration that is due to launch before Christmas with Sonia Rykiel. This capsule range will initially launch with lingerie in time for Christmas on 5th December and this morning we get our first glimpse of what to expect. The ad campaign stars Lara Stone (as a brunette), Caroline Trentini (as a red head) and Anna Vyalitsyna. I am excited to see this collection, what do you think of the ad campaign?

Lara, Eres, Work It, Own It

FabSugar — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:00:22 -0700

She's not super tan. She's no Barbie. She is, the official Eres lingerie and now swim muse. You weren't all convinced Lara was the best choice for the luxury brand before. But Eres has released an arsenal of lovely shots of the Dutch model in demure lingerie, and bright, sporty, sharp swimsuits. Soft and sandy, Lara in Eres is more dreamy than steamy. Source

Creative Lingerie Ad - Love It or Leave It?

TresSugar — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 02:00:00 -0700

I don't want to say too much about this lingerie ad running in Germany because I fear it could give away the effect. But I'll tell you this: it definitely makes the point that anyone can have the desire to feel sexy. Check it out and tell me if you think it is powerful or problematic.

Would You Wear Garters?

FabSugarUK — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 00:00:26 -0700

As hemlines get shorter, tights are becoming increasingly important which is leading people to be more experimental. I have spotted a couple of stars showing off their garters including Taylor Momsen at New York Fashion Week and Katy Perry in Paris. This got me thinking – would you wear garters?

Sneak Peek! Agent Provocateur's Autumn Superheroes

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Just in time for Halloween, Agent Provocateur has released its Autumn superhero-inspired collection of lustful lingerie complete with mesh bras, thongs, striped corsets, and silky camisoles. OK, I don't expect anyone to rock these outfits outside the house (maybe at the Exotic Erotic Ball), but behind closed doors, these pieces can add major spice in your life. I dare you to take on a persona - I'm claiming Kammelion's alien-like ensemble - and let your imagination flow. So who shall it be? Red-hot Bullet in her skimpy rhinestone playsuit and nipple armor, or Pantheria's catty two-piece? Decisions, decisions . . .

Look Book Love: The Lake & Stars, Fall '09

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Fall is all about bundling up, but after experiencing The Lake & Stars Fall look book, I would rather strip down. It's romantic and brooding, innocent and old-fashioned, rolled into one. I am especially smitten with the coquettish triangle bras, and though they don't provide much support, they're lovely for a night in. I wonder if I can wear one over a tee during the day. Sheer, lace, peach, satin . . . whoever wears plain underthings because no one sees them ought to reconsider. Shopbop currently has a few The Lake & Stars pieces on sale, so take a dip.
