May 17th 2008 saw Vienna's city hall square transformed from a picturesque piazza into the world's largest Aids benefit where a sparkling stage show took place, uniting fashion, lingerie and live rock 'n' roll.

Agent Provocateur played host to Europe's largest and most spectacular annual charity event dedicated to the fight against HIV and AIDS.

Being the glamorous, outlandish and opulent reinvention of the great Viennese ball tradition, the Life Ball celebrates the open-mindedness and diversity of the world and with Agent Provocateur sharing similar values it was a partnership made in heaven.

Oh yes and if you happen to notice when viewing the new AP ranges, Ms Moss is back!
First of all we hear that she has been dropped from the lingerie label after her relationship with co-owner Serena Rees turned sour. Now we see her back, it seems some bridge building has been going on

The Elle Macpherson Intimates collection offers a glamorous, exquisite and sophisticated range of underwear and afterwear.

The Boudoir collection celebrates modern day sex with style, eroticism and sensuality - reflecting fashion's fascination with Burlesque. The range is not dissimilar to some Agent Provocateur pieces but offers a more affordable alternative.

I love this lace trimmed camisole and French knicker set.  

Visit www.ellemacphersonintimates.com for further information on Elle Macpherson Intimates and stockists details. 

Highly recommend by a friend who has a pair they really do do the job of pulling in thighs and tummy to give you a slimmer, firmer look.

If you are looking for a quick fix I can vouch that Spanx high waisted power panty work wonders. See the full range at www.spanx.com

An interesting new way to shop for underwear.

Pick a model with a body shape nearest to your own or that of the person you are buying for, select the underwear you would like to view and hey presto the model walks onto the screen wearing that underwear.

You can ask her to turn around for a back view and even to walk forward for a closer look.

The site features a good range of underwear brands and there is even a 'Boys Buying Guide', which reminds me, there is still time to order before the 14th boys.

Finding a bra that fits well can be a difficult task.

Finding a bra that fits well, gives good support and looks attractive can be near on impossible, especially for those with less regular measurements.

Cue Freya...

..This label has been mentioned to me three times in the past week by friends who have a fairly small back measurement (32-34) but a larger bust size (DD-E) as being a breath of fresh air for them when looking for underwear. The designs reflect up to date fashion trends and are available up to a size J. They also have a beautiful swim wear collection and last year won three Figleaves lingerie awards.
