Dita von Teese Unveils New Wonderbra Ad, "The Science of Sexy"

Wonderbra and Dita von Teese have just unveiled a retro-inspired line of lingerie that's guaranteed to seduce! Dita explains that wearing her collection is a "wonderful way to seduce yourself€¦ which is ultimately a glamour girl's best strategy in seducing others!" The collection comes in three styles: Spot-Teese features a casino chip motif in nude with a sexy, sheer black tulle overlay. Multi-Teese has straps be arranged in a number of different ways and magnetic closures for (ahem) quick release, and Satine-Teese mixes vintage styling with Wonderbra know-how. Dita's collection with Wonderbra is available across Europe and will be available for purchase online at the end of September. Dita herself starred in the latest Wonderbra ad where she transforms from a mousy scientist to a pinup diva. Watch the video and find out how!

Lingerie Style: Oh, Babydoll!

A babydoll is typically defined as a short (usually very sexy) nightgown. More often than traditional sleepwear, babydolls are adorned with lace, ruffles, bows and ribbons. And quite frequently they are made from sheer fabric. While babydolls are classified as "sleepwear" by most lingerie retailers and are certainly meant to be worn to bed, they're not really meant to be slept in. As one of the modern mainstays of a woman's more alluring lingerie wardrobe, babydolls are meant for play. Check out my SLIDESHOW for five sexy selections.

Sheer Elegance: 5 Artistic Sheer Bras

I've fallen in love with a lot of new (and some not so new) bras that are composed primarily of sheer fabrics and embroidered with all kinds of elegant patterns. When the customers in the fitting room ring that doorbell and ask me to deliver them a specific bra, I find myself adding a few of these lovely selections to the group. They're not always the most practical bras. Often the embroidery will show through tight fitting tops. I think the best way to describe them is simply "classy". The sheer fabrics are sexy no doubt, but the intricate embroidery adds so much elegance that the eye cannot help but be drawn to the artistry of the garment over what lies beneath. I own at least one of each of the beauties in the slide show and they all give me that extra boost of sexy confidence throughout the day.

But Clyde_Blunt seems to have all the bases covered, from the needs to wants and must-haves to the I-must-be-dreaming. So visit my SLIDESHOW to see all the to-die-for dresses you maybe can and can't afford (but looking is free!). Hey, dreams do come true!

April in Paris: Gaspard Yurkievich Shares Spring/Summer Picks!

Speaking of France, independent Paris fashion house Gaspard Yurkievich counts itself among the hippest, most "in" young labels this side of the Atlantic. With an ever-evolving boutique in the trendy Marais district and a brand new eSHOP, the brand is definitely on the rise! And I should know - I work here! Our signature glitz and glam is in your face for the spring/summer 2008 collection, rightly entitled SHEER MEMORIES: light, luxurious fabrics, sparkling threads, retro flashbacks, crocodile satin, chain-splashed stockings. Sensual semi-transparent chiffons offer a glimpse of the body's natural curves, while patterns of light-capturing cellophane and Lurex intertwined with silk obscure transparency. Makeup is the inspiration for the color scheme: mascara black, flesh tones and poppy red. As the palette's powder element, more discreet cotton-silk mélange pieces represent the basic foundation of any wardrobe. Check out this SLIDESHOW for my favorite pieces from our current line!
