A former employee of lingerie wholesaler Native Intimates says she was terminated by her supervisors simply for being too busty and attractive. Lauren Odes, 29, has filed an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint against the company, alleging that her bosses asked her to tape her breasts down and wear her boyfriend’s oversize sweats to the showroom office. "When I was first told that I was too hot and that my breasts were too large, I was shocked," Odes said at a press conference yesterday. "After I was told to tape down my breasts, I cried." more ›

After helping take down a powerful governor, opening a fake restaurant in LA with Heidi Montag for reality TV, giving out sex advice for the Post, posing for Playboy and not writing her promised tell-all, what's a former working girl to do? Why, open a lingerie store in New Jersey, of course! more ›

Check out these photos for a pretty new New York-based lingerie line called The Lake & Stars. The lingerie itself is rather lovely, full of vintage-inspired flourishes that keep it sexy without being skanky. The models, too, are very pretty, and it's refreshing to see that at least one of them isn't jailbait material. That's because the models are a real-life mother-daughter team. Do you feel weird on the inside? more ›

Poor Victoria's Secret—the chain just can't catch a break. Last year the lingerie-peddling company was felled by bedbugs, accusations of encouraging eating disorders, and, last but not least, reselling used underwear. Today, Vickie and her Angels are under fire again, this time for needlessly destroying returned merchandise—and we're not talking about used thongs. more ›

It seems the road to fame and fortune—or at least infamy and lingerie photo shoots—still exists even if you've been deported from the United States as a bumbling spy. Anna Chapman, the former NYC party girl with extensive Facebook pictures who was accused of being a Russian spy, was sent back to Mother Russia, where she's been made an advisor to a bank and feted by President Dmitry Medvedev with the Kremlin's highest honor. And now she's in the new issue of the Russian Maxim! more ›

On more than one occasion, Murray Hill resident Kelly Dooley, who owns her own line of fashionable activewear "for women who refused to sacrifice style at the gym," has come home to find her nightstand lingerie drawers mysteriously left open. On Friday, the mystery was finally solved, when she stopped by her apartment at 11 a.m. to find the building's porter, Hector Solano, allegedly fondling her underwear. "I opened the door, and Hector is crouching down with his boxer-briefs on and a white Hanes crewneck shirt, and he's pulling up his cargo shorts," Dooley tells the Post. To be fair, she does sell a well-nigh irresistible bra encrusted with Yellow Swarovski Crystals and Purple lingerie lace side panels! more ›

CBS, NBC and other news outlets are reporting that the official Miss USA promotional photos, which show the contestants pouting in lingerie, may have "gone too far." On NBC's The Today Show this morning, host Matt Lauer channeled his inner Kramer by telling the pageant's president that the photos "seemed designed to generate controversy and buzz about the pageant." NBC, incidentally, will be broadcasting the pagaent from Las Vegas Sunday night "with Today’s Natalie Morales and celebrity chef Curtis Stone handling the hosting duties." more ›

ABC, the network that brought you David Caruso's, Dennis Franz's, and Jimmy Smits' butts (as well as Charlotte Ross's side boob and butt), allegedly refused to air a Lane Bryant lingerie ad during Dancing With the Stars because of its sexy, plus-sized model. At least that's what Lane Bryant claims, the model, Ashley Graham, (size 16, 38D) said, "The first thing I thought of was Victoria’s Secret commercials, and how they’re just as racy, if not more racy, than Lane Bryant.... [The models are] just a lot smaller than what I am. [ABC] can’t handle bigger on TV, bigger boobs on a normal-sized woman on TV.” more ›

Ladies in over-the-top lingerie get-ups stomped down the runway at the Lexington Avenue Armory for Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. According to Newsday, "Some 2,000 showgoers including Jay-Z, Michelle Trachtenberg and Virgin Atlantic's Richard Branson (a 'fashion show virgin,' he said) were treated to the extravaganza of bra-and-panty clad Victoria's Secret angels - much more modest than in years past - strutting down a runway with adjacent mosh-pits, wearing massive wings, lunar sculptures, branches and glitzy accessories that conjured a 'magical journey' from space voyage, old world train travel, an enchanted forest and a happy hippie segment that included a giant inflatable pink polka-dot puppy that rose from the floor." more ›

Fashion Week is right around the corner, again, but months afterl the couture is cleared the fashion world will be something for the average man: Victoria's Secret Angels. The winged ones haven't brought their annual "fashion" show here for four years, and The Daily News reports that "runway regulars Marisa Miller and Alessandra Ambrosio, broke the news on the CBS Early Show" yesterday that they would be returning—with Miller stating that New York is exactly "where it belongs." If your front row invite gets lost in the mail, the show airs on CBS in December. Angel Heidi Klum is set to have a baby in October, and told People that "The birth will be very, very close to when the show is. I don’t know if I’ll be able to walk in my underwear quite that fast! We’ll see." Meanwhile, another angel, Adriana Lima (pictured) is due in December, and says she won't be part of the show unless she can hide under a Santa outfit. more ›

Like Kramer and Frank Costanza before her, Katerina Pew designed a bra made just for her -- except her biggest problem wasn't naming it (the Bro? The Manzier?). The 38-year-old struggling, single mom was sick and tired of bra straps, but her bra-making brainstorm only resulted in a lawsuit against Victoria's Secret after they allegedly stole her idea. more ›

What would Norman Mailer make of a boxer cavorting in high heels, fishnet stockings, and a fur-trimmed tutu? "I respect most boxers because they're violent people who learned to discipline themselves," opined the late writer. Mailer may be dead, but it's doubtable whether the embarrassment that Oscar De La Hoya faces will ever die. The New York Times framed the situation ably, noting the media alert notifying the press that De La Hoya would be in court to confront his former mistress over racy lingerie photos. Unfortunately for the boxer, it was he wearing the lingerie. more ›
