Shirley of Hollywood Celebrates 60 Years of Sexy Lingerie
June 10, 2008
Shirley of Hollywood intimate apparel is celebrating it’s 60th year in business this month. As it’s name suggests, Hollywood starlets put Shirley of Hollywood on the map for symbolizing sexy quality lingerie that makes women feel fabulous and men wanting more.
Shirley has always been meticulously crafted and found the finest fabrics and finishes such as trims and lace to craft their provocative garments. Owned by the Schlobohm family for three generations, Shirley of Hollywood has always been a family business. From private label for Playboy to major retailers, Shirley can be found in more than 3,000 stores world-wide.
Not to leave anyone out, Shirley of Hollywood in 1987 created the Intimate Attitudes Collection. This collection offers fabulous lingerie styles for the fuller figured woman with sizing starting at 1X and going up to 6X. Quite a ground breaking and risky endeavour that paid off. In 2003, they got into the mens underwear business with a line called Gyz (pronounced "guys").
Famous for their catalogs and visually provocative models, Shirley launched the careers of several famous women: Brooke Burke, Victoria Silverstedt, Leanne Tweeden and Tyran Richard. Several went on to become Playboy Playmates.
With 60 years under their garter belt, Shirley is producing a great commemorative collection that has Hollywood glamour as its inspiration. The collection includes fabulous signature corsets.
The constant with Shirley of Hollywood are their chopper bras or shelf bras, a best seller year after year. And, their crotchless panties are always a hit because they are beautifully made and hide their feature flawlessly.

What is Sexy Lingerie?
May 27, 2008
A friend of mine once told me that his now ex-wife used to sleep in turtlenecks. Okay, I think we all agree that’s not sexy lingerie. A girlfriend of mine bought a chopper bra to wear on her boyfriend’s birthday. The next day she squealed with delight as she recounted his reaction. Clearly, that was sexy lingerie for him. Her boyfriend, in kind, surprised her by wearing a thong for her on her birthday. She did not find it sexy at all! Sexy lingerie is definitely in the eye of the beholder.
One person can find a garment like crotchless panties sexy while someone else will find them disgusting. One may find sheer lingerie sexy,
and another prefers lace. So, how does one navigate this sexy lingerie minefield when trying to buy their partner a sexy piece of lingerie?
Here are a few guidelines. First, black is always safe. The color is sexy, but also slimming. Everyone feels good in black. Next, err on the more conservative side with your first purchase. Don’t start with chopper bras and crotchless panties. Begin with a sexy yet pretty negligee with lace and matching panties. Float that balloon first. Based on the reaction and feedback, you can move up the "risque" meter to sheerer and more revealing items. And, of course, there are costumes…, but that should come later.
As for men and giving them sexy underwear items, most men I’ve polled say "don’t bother." They’re an easy sell frankly, preferring to wear nothing. After all, that’s what they’re working towards getting you to.

New Pussycat Dolls Lingerie Collection
May 12, 2008
During Los Angeles Fashion Week in March 2008, The Pussycat Dolls – inspired lingerie line was a surprise hit. Designed by the founder of the Pussycat Dolls band, Robin Antin, the collection received several thumbs up from major LA fashionistas.
The group, known for their skimpy lingerie-like costumes and overtly sexy moves, is now putting its reputation on an equally sexy and skimpy line of lingerie. Sean "Puffy" Combs and Quincy Jones were just some of the celebrities at the fashion show.
The collection first featured micro-mini skirts with corset, graffiti-covered bra and panty sets, leopard-printed pieces and many lace-up ensembles. Then a frilly, ribbon trimmed and ruffly collection emerged with very sheer sets and a sailor inspired theme. Antin summed up the show by saying "It’s feminine and it’s edgy, just like the Pussycat Dolls." The first collection is titled "Shhh" because Astin wanted a word to sum up "Our little secret."
