Sloggi Lingerie Autumn/Winter ‘09 2:28 PM


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

Pink Corsets From Playgirl London 2:24 PM


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.

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!”

First Collection From Porzia T 1:14 PM

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.
