Lingerie Patrol ™ Oscars Edition

February 27, 2013

All eyes were on the stars during the 2013 Academy Awards and it seemed most everyone was well aware of that fact. The result? Near perfection. I’m happy to report that there were only a few Lingerie laws broken and here are the top offenders.

Anne Hathaway had a big win, walking away with the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress but that’s not all people were talking about. Did you notice Anne’s big areolas and nipples showing through her side-boob baring Prada gown? I get that her options were limited for bras but come on, she could have easily slapped on some nipple covers to help conceal her head lights. Anne’s breasts even inspired a humorous Twitter account, AnneHathawayNipples with thousands of followers! I’m sure she’d rather have the public and press focusing on her big win but her nipples were just too distracting. Oh, and she changed to this dress at the last minute from a Valentino.

 
Reese Witherspoon was stunning in her Louis Vuitton gown as a presenter. I just wish she had worn a strapless bra to give her a more supported look. Reese’s breasts looked a little droopy and sloppy for such a glamorous dress.
 

Finally, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans were surprised to see Brandi Glanville on the red carpet as a commentator. Brandi’s dress was her own creation and seemed to match her loud personality. Kudos to Brandi for skirting what would appear to be a set-up for a certain wardrobe malfunction. But then again, this dress design simply called out the fact that her breasts were not natural. Instead of looking classy, Brandi looked mostly racy and tacky at this year’s Oscars. She should take

a cue from Veteran Oscar-attendee, Jennifer Aniston who knows how to look tasteful and gorgeous in a strapless dress.

Spotted: Superbowl Lingerie & Underwear

February 11, 2013

For those of you not interested in football, there was still plenty of reason to tune into Superbowl action last weekend: commericals and the half time show. This year, both featured products we carry at HerRoom and HisRoom.

I was thrilled to see the very first Calvin Klein ad during the Superbowl – I’ve since seen in cabs and ad boards all over NYC.   The commercial introduced Calvin Klein’s new Concept collection – men’s underwear styles that feature 360 degrees of seamless construction. HisRoom offers the 3 underwear styles from this collection.  CK claims it’s the most comfortable fit yet.  And, the commercial also had high eye-candy appeal for the female demographic.  

The guys got a little eye candy of their own during Beyonce’s highly anticipated performance during half time. But of course, I also keyed in on what they were wearing.   I spied Beyonce’s back up dancers wearing these Pretty Polly tights. A great company for leg fashion, Pretty Polly is way out in front in terms of new and innovative hosiery.  Their Secret Over The Knee Sock Tights gave a great fashion statement to Beyonce and her entourage.
