Going green with eco-friendly Bamboo Underwear

Bamboo underwear! The new name in underwear fashion.

A London designer has just launched the latest Eco-friendly underwear made from Bamboo. But how green is green underwear?
Joanna Ketter, who runs London-based fashion firm Luva Huva is launching the bamboo creation which is pulped and then spun into fibres to be woven and dyed.

How green is your underwear?

Bamboo is sadi to bo eco-friendly than cotton because it is quick to grow. and it does not need pesticides and is also bio-degradable.

The underwear range is soft and strong and costs from around £30.

"People often have the perception that environmentally-sound clothing lacks style and comnfort. With this new range I have tried to show they can have both," Joana is quoted as saying in the Sun.

Glamour model Kate Moss named the lingerie sexiest model ever


Kate Moss has been named the sexiest lingerie model ever. The British super model topped the poll by luxury underwear brand Agent Provocateur - that listed the top 10 most attractive women who have modelled for them. Kate Moss appeared in several raunchy adverts and short films for the chain.

Explaining why Kate Moss, topped the list, the survey said: "In the four films starring Kate, we are given dream sequences that invite us to imagine how we might fulfil her desires.

"The dreams are beautifully crafted fantasies, each with an eerie atmosphere that brings us into a serene la-la land were we feel free to imagine pleasing Kate."

Singer Kylie Minogue, came second, while dancer Dita von Teese was third. Kylie was praised for a promotional piece she shot which sees her riding an electric horse.

The survey noted: "The camera closes in on her bulging behind as it rides up and down and shakes from side to side."

Dita won third spot because of her ability to "tease out men's deepest fantasies through the power of suggestion."

New Barack Obama Underwear for man


Trendy underwear designer, Andrew Christian started selling new tight-fitting Barack Obama boxer-briefs. The slim fit undies have the face of senator Obama on the front and the numbers 08 printed on the back.

He has pledged to donate $1 to the Barack Obama campaign for every $29 boxer short he sells.

The new underwear is available in navy blue, royal blue and red.

Andrew Christian says he would have released a Hilary Clinton bra had Mr Obama chosen her as his mate.

As a Democrat, he has no plans for any John McCain shorts and he guessed they wouldn't be a hot seller, anyway.

"It probably wouldn't be as hip and as cool as the Obama underwear," Christian said.

It's not easy for man to buy women's Lingerie


It's not as easy as buying flowers. Buying women's underwear especially if you want to buy it as a surprise gift is not that easy, worse if you are a shy guy. How do you know which shops to go to? Sometimes you feel embarrassed talking to female shop assistants when you don't know your partner's underwear size, especially those bra sizes which only women understand. Plus how will you know your partner will like what you are buying for her?

There are a number of lingerie shops around. Do you buy from the supermarket? Will you go for the big shops in the shopping mall or the specialised boutiques? It's easy for women because they know which shops to go to, to get exactly what they want.

It's not easy to discuss women's underwear with shop assistance. Imagine if you don't know the size of underwear you want to buy, how would you explain that? Even just to be seen shopping around in those places which specialise in ladies lingerie. Please help, this is not easy!

Online shops do help overcome this embarrassment of being seen shopping for women's underwear. You order in privacy and will be delivered well packaged.

But this still does not solve all the problems faced by man when shopping for women's underwear. Maybe man should not buy woman's underwear as surprise gifts.

Do woman have these problems also, when buying men's underwear? How would you help man overcome these problems they face when buying ladies lingerie?
