The most beautiful lingerie and swimwear in the world...
First, watch this clip from the new Iron Man 2 movie (if you’re short on time, the important part is around :40)
Did you notice the sexy lingerie set Scarlett Johansson was wearing in the photo? How could you not, right? It’s the Eliza set from Panache!
You can get your own Eliza set from Figleaves or HerRoom. It is also available in white and pink.
a Texas girl is the grand prize winner of a photography contest sponsored by Maidenform and MySpace. After entering the Maidenform “This Looks Right” photo contest on MySpace, Jessica Degollado won $20,000 and the opportunity to go behind the lens at an upcoming Maidenform photo shoot.
The winning photo is a self-portrait that depicts Degollado dancing on a couch in a tank top and boyshorts. Her caption was, “This feels right because the photo is the perfect example of being free, young, and being yourself. FREEDOM feels right, and is something we all want. And being yourself is something we should all be, rather than doing what everyone else is doing.”
TLP sat down for a quick chat with Jessica which resulted in a quick mini-interview! 😀
Q: How did you end up sending in your winning photo?
A: I was on MySpace one day, and saw the advertisement for the contest on the main page. I decided to give it a shot, since photography is my life. So I entered the contest and hoped that I would win.
Q: Do you often walk around the house in your underwear?
A: I do, actually, but only when I’m alone in the house. When I lived in Chicago, I’d do it a lot in my apartment. That always reminded me of Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson’s character) in Lost in Translation, and how she would always be in her underwear in her apartment in Japan.
Q: Would you call yourself a real lingerista?
A: I’d say so. I’ve always loved buying lingerie…but especially underwear. I absolutely love underwear.
Congratulations, Jessica!
It’s not easy for a new swimwear label to position itself in the market, but it seems like Brian Fitterer found a perfect way of drawing attention to his hot new brand: 1690 Swimwear. The 1690 pieces are a whole line of bikinis inspired and modeled after some of the hottest bodies in Hollywood. The suits, named after celebs such as Jennifer Lopez, Scarlett Johansson, Paris Hilton, Kendra Wilkinson, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears and Eva Longoria, are designed with the star’s body type in mind. Women with identifiable similarities with the star can replicate their style and flaunt their own best features! You know what’s great? These are mixable too, so you can get the Jennifer top with the Eva bottom, if you catch my drift! 😉
Sizing is a bit exclusive, from XS to M, but prices are not. The pieces start at about $115 and go up to $140, which is very reasonable for quality swimwear like this. I don’t have details on where you’ll be able to try these on in the boutiques, but you can get them straight from the 1690 website’s shop!
I’m looking forward to checking one of these out myself — but give me some time as I’m not a millionaire yet. In the mean time take a look at all the 1690 pieces right here.
