Spirit of Marilyn Monroe - Now Available in UK from Lingerie & Co
New range of lingerie based on the spirit of Marilyn Monroe is released by Shirley of Hollywood and available in the UK from Lingerie & Co (www.lingerie.co.uk)
London, United Kingdom, April 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Shirley of Hollywood, one of the world’s premiere lingerie brands, is proud to premiere Marilyn Monroe by Shirley -- a nouveau retro look at the feminine styles and playful spirit that defined an unforgettable screen legend. This one-of-a-kind debut collection combines retro cool pop art with the sepia-toned glamour of old Hollywood in vintage-inspired couture recast for today’s trend-setters.
Every ensemble in the debut Marilyn Monroe by Shirley collection is pinup pretty, from swingy little swimsuit-style skirts to halter necklines, ruffled bra tops and sexy dressing coats.
“I drew so much inspiration from Marilyn herself and the glamorous styling of the 50’s with its feminine sun dresses, pleats, ruffles and carefree California aesthetic – what woman doesn’t want to feel like a Hollywood movie star?” said Susan Turpin, Shirley of Hollywood Designer for this very special collection.“I imagined Marilyn on the set of one of her movies as they do her hair and make-up, slipping into a sexy yet demure dressing coat, which inspired our Charmeuse Marilyn Monroe Postage Stamp Robe."
Each of the seven styles in this debut collection brings back the glamorous era of Marilyn, from the Flocked Dot and Mesh Two Piece Set inspired by 50’s swim suits with halter ribbon straps, a non-structured cup with ruffles on top, classic vintage ruching at back and lace overlay panty with romantic ribbon bows; to the Charmeuse Marilyn Monroe All Over Chemise with contrasting lace at top, stripe ruffle hem and lace up side.
