While modern women are free to wear these fitted underpinnings whenever we want to spice things up Read more

Victoria Beckham gets quirky on the cover of i-D magazine's "Whatever the Weather" issue, which hits newsstands on Feb. 9. She posed in skimpy clothes for the playful spread after also donning a leotard in Numéro Tokyo last month.

We have some groundbreaking women to thank for where lingerie Read more

Heidi Klum had a postvacation glow as she strode onto the set of The Tonight Show With Jay Leno yesterday. The supermodel, who wore a sexy corset dress for the appearance, has spent most of the Summer traveling with Seal and their children. Heidi flaunted a rotating wardrobe of two-pieces during their many afternoons on the beaches of Italy and Spain, but she told Jay she would rather don only Read more

True to form, Gaultier delivered trench coats, sharp suiting, and far sexier fare for Spring 2012.

While most designers went tribal for Spring '12, Donatella Versace ventured under the sea. It was a leg-bearing collection as models sauntered down the runway — complete with big blowouts and dangerously high lucite heels — in an array of starfish, seashell, and seahorse printed short sets and minidresses.
