From contemporary to classic, from ethnic to glamorous, the latest sloggi collection offers four new ranges that combine simple yet imaginative designs, beautiful materials and perfect fit.

Autumn sees the launch of Jolie, an 8 piece soft microfibre series comprising bras, briefs and top. In rich Burgundy with light blue and Burgundy decorative stripe edging, or in an allover paisley inspired print in the same colours, these charming, bow detailed pieces can be endlessly mixed to match.

For seductive winter glamour Gala shines with its push up plunge bra, exotic string and elegant hipster. In dramatic black or soft vanilla, each item features semi-transparent inserts of soft microfibre glitter-tulle.

Sometimes a girl needs a little help in shaping up, and now Slim comes to the rescue to trim the silhouette. All three briefs – waist high, maxi shorts and long shorts – flatten the tummy, while the maxi also shapes the bottom and the long shorts shape bottom and thighs. The secret lies in the exceptionally clean lines and special supportive microfibre with laminated double-layer zones where extra control is needed. Black, white and caramello are the colours.

Finally, sloggi takes it Easy for everyday wear with hipster, tai, shorts and seamfree, padded bra in black or white soft viscose. Embossed sloggi logo waistbands lend a sporty touch to an otherwise minimal series.

Sloggi is available online at Figleaves.com & Becheeky.com

With summer time just around the corner, its time to come out of the dark and into the summer sunshine with Playgirl London’s pretty pink corset collection.

The online corsetry company and online burlesque boutique are getting into the summer swing of things by showcasing their collection of rosy pink waist reducing overbust and underbust corsets.

Playgirl London team their corsetry skills with burlesque artists and alternative artists to make garments that are truly unique in design and fit.

The latest collection has been designed to reflect the changing role of the corset from a functional garment to the ultimate in luxury.

They also have a new recruit, Paulina De La Passionfruit who is a burlesque beauty who’s hoping to take on the social networking phenomenon by a storm showcasing the brands corsets with her to die for hourglass figure!

Paulina told Lingerieblog.co.uk, “I am delighted Playgirl London have taken me on to showcase their corsets".

“A corset never goes out of style! It is the single most attractive piece of clothing a woman can buy! Once a garment that was used to oppress is now the ultimate expression of sexuality and freedom,

“Playgirl London make real corsets at a reasonable price, made with generous amounts of steel and cloth that is generously reinforced, this helps achieve the sexy and seductive hourglass figure and can help achieve a waist reduction of up to 4 inches, on their specialist made to measure corsets this can be increased to six inches! Which is how I maintain my 50’s pin up pose for my friends on Facebook!”

“It doesn’t matter what shape you are. Burlesque is about feeling positive about who you are and about knowing how to shake what you have and being proud of it! Hopefully by bringing back burlesque, it will bring back the kind of body that is round on top and round on bottom!”

orzia T’s collection Privata is the first collection designed by Paola Tessariol. The company founded last September by Paola who has worked at some of the most prestigious Italian fashion houses.

The collection of lingerie and accessories has been inspired by Porzia, the famous character of William Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice.

Porzia T means luxury temptations and it shows with the exclusive quality of selected fabrics and materials which is enhanced by handmade production.

The key elements are satin, the tones of white, rose and black, as well as sparkling crystals that are applied like drops of jewels on the garments, which are all entirely lined with the purest silk to softly caress the body.

Strings are introduced in three versions: a basic one, another one with triple band at the back and a more sophisticated model with double band at the hips figuring a bow with a coquette touch.

Mini knickers as well are developed in different versions: basic or more sophisticated with five bands, front and back, for a seductive geometry of lines that dress the skin and leave it “undressed” at the same time.

Satin shorts are must-haves, with rounded lines at the hips that follow the silhouette, thus transforming the garment into a light and fluttering fancy.

The range of bras unveils very chic models: triangle cups, ultra compact push-up bras and strapless corset bras.
The latter is also interpreted in a sexier version, with bands reaching the neck from the breast and creating a collar-necklace in a can-can style.

For glamorous nights Porzia T offers a range of haute couture nightwear: corsets with bands and collar-necklace, laced up with a bow falling at the back; tops with bands, collar-necklace with a bow and a low-cut V back; soft baby-dolls with triangle cups, cut on the front to catch a glimpse of body and belly.

This is the second episode in My favourite bra style series and these are my 3 favourite Plunge bras. Again as I said in episode one there are some brands that call bras plunge style when really they’re not!

I like most woman love to wear bras that accentuate my assets and give me a great cleavage and the appearance of a fuller bust.

The Plunge bra is defined by its similarity too the push up but is unpadded. Plunge bras have Minimum coverage which enables the cleavage to be exposed thus creating the desired appearance under low cut clothes.

Plunge bras offer medium support and it’s recommended that they should be worn in moderation, depending on your cup size, under lower cut garments. The design of the plunge bra offers you the perfect appearance when wearing plunging necklines and is extremely comfortable.

The name of course speaks for its self and there’s no shortage of choice when it comes to finding a plunge bras that you’ll love, almost every lingerie brand has their own plunge style bras.

There’s always plenty of choice whether you want a smooth look under close fitting clothes for work or something a little sexier with embroidered or lace trims you can find it all with a plunge bra.

Plunge bras are available from Figleaves.com BeCheeky.com and LaSenza.co.uk

GlamorousAmorous.com has launched US designer and fashion stylist, Simeon Dacumos to the UK. The San Francisco-based designer will present his two main collections, ‘Tushe™’ and ‘Apéritif™’, both of which will be available exclusively through the online boutique.

Simeon Dacumos, made his mark on the world of lingerie through his revolutionary ‘Tushe’™ collection of undergarments. ‘Tushe™’ was especially designed out of the desire for women to further accentuate their buttocks while simultaneously slimming the thigh area. The result is a fully adjustable garment at the thigh for extra slimming control and at the waste for additional comfort, and to further lift the bottocks.

‘Apéritif’™ is a couture inspired lingerie collection which combines elements of high fashion to classic lingerie, extending its role beyond undergarments.

Both styles are made from the highest quality of French lace, Italian trimmings and a luxurious mesh and lycra spandex from Belgium.

Simeon’s career in high fashion was born out of his desire to accentuate symmetry in the female form, inspired by working in a gym in San Francisco. He understands the insecurities and tribulations experienced by his female clients, and experiments with contouring lingerie.

Annabel Gatward, founder and director of GlamorousAmorous.com told Lingerieblog.co.uk, “Simeon Dacumos is one of the world’s most exciting new designers who has managed to create a highly innovative and functional lingerie collection which is innately beautiful, exceptionally desirable and at the cutting edge of style. Simeon’s work is very much about extending the role of lingerie, beyond hidden undergarments, to playing a key part in high fashion at the same time as boosting a woman’s confidence.”

Simeon told us “With ‘Tushe’™ and ‘Apéritif’™ I aimed to venture back to the origin of lingerie’s intended purpose – acting as functional comfortable under wear, but more importantly about enticing a partner, adding romance and embracing female sensuality in a tasteful and elegant manner.”

“In terms of launching my collections in the UK, I’m delighted to be represented by GlamorousAmorous.com which I believe is an online boutique offering the highest degree of quality, sophistication and style all round.”

This is the first of a string of small features showing my favourite bra styles, I’ll be including three favourites of each style at the bottom. I’ll be starting off with Balconette bras and a short explanation of why I like them so much!

I’ve noticed lately that a lot of brands are claiming that their bras are Balconette when they’re actually not Balconette style. This can be very confusing unless you know what you’re looking for.

The correct definition of a Balconette cup, or Demi cup which is the actual style, is a bra that offers less coverage of your boobs and has an almost perfect horizontal cut across your breasts just above the bust line. Balconette bras can give your breasts a fuller look if they are padded, and a little lift too.

The original name Balconette comes from ‘men in the balcony of a theatre looking down upon women’. The Balconette bra could not be seen from above, just like a corset that is worn under clothing.

The other great thing about Balconette style bras is that a lot of them have removable straps so you can alter the style slightly to match your outfit for the time of year or occasion.

Here are my three favourites and all are true Balconette style and have credit crunching prices too!
