Victoria's Secret has its stable of Brazilians, Agent Provocateur has Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Frederick's of Hollywood, well, they're going for Dita. After all, lingerie - and less - is her forte.

Dita will be fronting a new line of (surprise!) forties pinup-inspired lingerie out just in time for the holiday season. The collection, "Pin-up Parade," will debut in Frederick's November catalogue, which is to feature Dita in a traditional burlesque feather dance, as well as ski bunny pinup scenes. Dita fan or not, you have to agree she is the ideal pin-up girl for the skeevy brand.

Be Mine: What Lies Underneath

I was once told by a lover, that he wanted me in nothing more than a simple, sexy robe. He was one of those boys who didn't really care for fussy, lacey underthings; he just wanted me to show some skin (blush). I have to admit though, after indulging in some sexual chocolate, wearing a simple, sexy robe with nothing but nature's creation underneath, will do wonders for your libido. DO try this at home. Here are a few choices:

For the flirt, Frederick's of Hollywood turquoise satin kimono robe, $29.

A couple more,

For the lady, Skin Ruffle sleeve robe, on sale for $96.60 (originally $138).

For the vamp, Victoria's Secret sheer wrap robe, $38.

Sexy Vintage Lingerie Ads

Curvaceous models are prepping to bare it all at the Victoria's Secret fashion show, as the lingerie company's annual show hits the runway today. And just as the show has evolved a lot since its inauguration in the '90s, lingerie itself has changed by leaps and bounds (thankfully) since it was first introduced in the late 19th century.

We have some groundbreaking women to thank for where lingerie is nowadays. British fashion designer Lady Duff-Gordon, "Lucy," was one of the first pioneers of lingerie, creating underwear that was more about being beautiful than practical and constricted in corsets. And Mary Phelps Jacob patented the first brassiere in 1914 (conveniently two days before Valentine's Day). But it was Frederick's of Hollywood, founded in 1947 by the inventor of the push-up bra, Frederick Mellinger, that really put the sex in lingerie.

See how the sultry little things we wear under our clothes have been targeted to women over the years with a look back at vintage lingerie ads!
