      <title><![CDATA[Elle Macpherson Intimates - p.s. I Love You]]></title>
      <link>http://www.bendonlingerie.co.nz/news/elle-macpherson-intimates-p-s-i-love-you/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>
	This new season&rsquo;s collection &ndash; <em>p.s. I Love You</em> is inspired by travel to romantic Paris, by postcards sent and falling in love.
</p>
<p>
	As Creative Director, Elle Macpherson explains, &ldquo;this collection is about the journey &ndash; to places we love, with people we love and making memories as we go&rdquo;.
</p>
<p>
	What could be more delicious?
</p>
<h2>July 2011</h2>
<p>
	The five collections include Elle Macpherson Intimates&rsquo; classics like <em>Dentelle</em>, here in fresh lemon and soft nude, and the exclusive dynamic prints of <em>Starlight Waltz</em> and <em>Secret Song</em>. Both of these have their inspiration in travel and romance, the city of Paris and the wild rose. <em>Sweet Like Me</em> has a contour bra that invokes the colours of a sunlit garden and <em>Quaint Revolution</em> is a coquettish mixture of low-cut contour bra with a delicate lace mesh.
</p>
<h2>August 2011</h2>
<p>
	The French inspired vintage lace and dramatic embroidery of <em>Meet Me at the Metro</em> and <em>Sent With Love</em> have us back in the city of romance &ndash; Paris. <em>Isobella</em> takes its cue from seductive corsetry with traditional details such as ladder stitching and corded lace. The colour &ndash; Watermelon Pink &ndash; is the unexpected modern twist to this vintage styling.
</p>
<h2>September/October 2011</h2>
<img style="float: right; padding: 0 0 20px 20px;" title="Elle Macpherson Intimates - Lux Noir - 2011" src="http://www.bendonlingerie.co.nz/media/wysiwyg/news/fixed/2011.05.26-EMI-P.S-I-Love-You-Float01.jpg" alt="Elle Macpherson Intimates - Lux Noir - 2011">
<p>
	One of the highlight pieces of the entire <em>p.s. I Love You</em> collection is in store this October.
</p>
<p>
	A glamorous design &ndash; <em>Lux Noir</em> &ndash; pairing shimmering bronze with fine black lace. It&rsquo;s decadent and daring with a sense of luxury synonymous with Elle Macpherson Intimates.
</p>
<p>
	<em>My Black Beret</em> and <em>Long Long Ago</em> illustrate again the chic classics the Elle Macpherson Intimates brand is renowned for. Jet and Soft Nude in stretch lace and European embroidery are showcased along with the fit and comfort we expect. <em>If Only You Knew</em> and <em>Parisienne Poppy</em> are both youthful, enchanting florals. The soft hues and flirty styling are bound to make hearts flutter.
</p>
<h2 style="clear: none !important;">November 2011</h2>
<p>
	As a countdown to the end of the year party season comes <em>Burlesque</em><em>,</em> inspired by the costumes of the famous Moulin Rouge and <em>Crazy Beautiful</em> with its vibrant colour bringing to mind the swirling gypsy girl dancing without a care in the world.
</p>
<p>
	With many of these collections Elle continues to offer her lingerie in sizing up to a G cup. As Elle notes, &ldquo;friends of mine with large cup sizes have told me they adore this addition to my collection and I am happy to say my D-G offering is going from strength to strength&rdquo;.

<p>
	Elle Macpherson Intimates Autumn Winter Collection 2011 sparkles with promise and excitement. Reflecting a fresh optimism, the fashion-conscious shopper is spoilt for choice this season with fresh prints, directional shapes and a sophisticated colour palette.
</p>
<p>	
	Creative Director, Elle Macpherson, talks of spirited styles, luxurious fabrics and her highly anticipated new t-shirt bra collection, <em>Bare and Bold</em>.
</p>
<p>
	<em>Bare and Bold</em> makes its debut this season. The collection of t-shirt bras uses a smooth slinky knit fabric over expertly cut moulded cups, providing the ultimate shape and support. Available in a strapless, plunge cup, push-up and underwire style with a range of three styles of briefs to select from. The <em>Bare and Bold</em> briefs are designed with a clever double layer fold-back to ensure the vital no visible panty line under your clothes.
</p>
<p>
	Bare and Bold Intimates (in-store Jan)
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;I wanted to ensure this collection was functional and comfortable under clothes while still being desirable. Lingerie is an emotional purchase for women even when it comes to the t-shirt bra. The fit, style and look must be perfect. <em>Bare and Bold</em> offers the ultimate silhouette regardless of the profile you choose&rdquo;, says Elle.
</p>
<p>
	Cleverly this range gives you the option to have lace trim on your <em>Bare and Bold</em> t-shirt bra and brief or simply go for the smooth and simpler style. Available in black, white or American nude.
</p>
<p>
	Elle&rsquo;s Autumn Winter Intimates main range collection features <em>Artistry</em> (pictured) in a stunning White and Dreamy Lemon combination. <em>Lily Pond</em> which comes in a subtle Purple shade (pictured) is the ultimate in feminine styling using a delicate stretch lace and finished with a contrasting satin trim. <em>Cloud Swing</em> is a beautiful balconette bra with sleek under-bust band detailing. <em>Skylight</em> in a Prussian Blue Print (pictured) features a pleated top cup on the bra and side of the briefs with a stretch grosgrain ribbon and button motif detail. This set looks fabulous and doesn&rsquo;t ruffle under clothes. And <em>Serengeti Plains</em> in Prussian Blue<em>,</em> Elle&rsquo;s take on the zebra print in a jacquard design with contrasting stain lining and a grosgrain burnt orange bow.
</p>
<p>
	Serengeti Plains (in store May), Skylight (in store May), Cloud Swing (in-store Feb), Lily Pond (in-store Feb), Artistry (in-store Feb).
</p>
<p>
	A special addition arrives in April, Elle&rsquo;s bridal set.

Stunning and desirable, whether you are getting married or have a special occasion this one will demand attention and become a must in your lingerie drawer.
</p>
<p>
	Elle&rsquo;s D-G hasn&rsquo;t lost any momentum for 2011.
</p>
<p>
	Gentle Jade (in-store April) and Bridal (in store April)
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;Friends of mine with large cup sizes have told me they adore this addition to my collection and I&rsquo;m happy to say my D-G range is going from strength to strength&rdquo;, says Elle.<br>
	<br>

<p>
	Intimate&rsquo;s Afterwear collection remains close to Elle&rsquo;s heart: &ldquo;My Afterwear is about being relaxed and comfortable at home while maintaining a sense of style. Why compromise just because you&rsquo;re indoors,&rdquo; she says.
</p>
<p>
	This season Afterwear takes the lingerie collection&rsquo;s lead using an honest clean colour palette in a range of must-have chemises. The collection includes; <em>Cloud Swing</em>, <em>Cup Cake</em>, <em>Dentelle</em>, <em>Spree</em> and <em>Gentle Jade</em>.

      <description><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.bendonlingerie.co.nz/media/wysiwyg/news/fixed/2010.05.12-EMI-Drama-Desire-Luxury-Float01.jpg" alt="" style="float: right; padding: 0 0 20px 20px;"/>
<p>
	Obsidian by Elle Macpherson Intimates delivers yet another compelling and desirable collection for the season ahead.
</p>
<p>
	As women&rsquo;s lingerie continues the strong trend of becoming acceptable outerwear, Obsidian presents key pieces like the molded plunge bra for everyday glamour <em>(Lucy)</em>, the signature Elle style <em>(Eloise)</em>with satin and jewel motifs, the sophisticated elegance using two tone leavers lace from France <em>(Ginger)</em> and the Italian jacquard fabric print bustier with stylish collar detail (<em>Betty</em>). This lingerie is so exceptional women will be inspired to show it off and men will need to see it.
</p>
<p>
	Strikingly classic design, luxury fabrics with a monochromatic colour palette &ndash; you&rsquo;ll find black, charcoal, grey, ivory and a hint of the softest pink.
</p>
<p>
	Elle Macpherson, Intimates Creative Director says of her new collection.
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;Obsidian is raw and sexy with a sophisticated edge. My intention with the design was to encompass sophistication, style, fashion-forward design with an intense desirability.
</p>
<p>
	The name Obsidian comes from the naturally occurring volcanic glass formed as rock which I found on a recent holiday with friends. It has all the passion and life force of primordial raw energy and seemed a perfect inspiration for this new collection,&rdquo; says Elle.
</p>
<p>
	The Obsidian campaign, with its dramatic imagery, was inspired by the hard gloss of fashion advertising you would find in the &lsquo;90s. &nbsp;The campaign was shot by the immensely talented Regan Cameron in New York earlier this year. Cameron&rsquo;s work is renowned for its seductive beauty, refined style and glamourous shoot locations. His work appears in British, Italian, French and Japanese Vogue.
</p>
<p>
	The Obsidian campaign exhibits moments of urgent intimacy between two lovers but is ironically captured in a staged setting, highlighting the desire and beauty of the moment.
</p>
<p>
	The luxury fabric sourced from France, Japan and Italy sets this new collection apart. The fabrics include laces, silks, tulles, stunning embroidery and jacquards in the women&rsquo;s lingerie and cashmere, micro modal, bamboo cotton, sea cell and light weight woven cotton in the men&rsquo;s.
</p>
<p>
	The men&rsquo;s Obsidian pieces are understated and classic with cutting-edge design and highly desirable given the luxury fabric.
</p>
<p>
	Each Obsidian piece features a small hint of Tibetan Blue, Elle&rsquo;s favourite colour. On the men&rsquo;s it&rsquo;s via an embroidered logo and on the women&rsquo;s it&rsquo;s a small hint on the strap. &nbsp;This new collection is understated and utterly desirable.

      <description><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.bendonlingerie.co.nz/media/wysiwyg/news/fixed/2010.05.05-EMI-Best-of-Season-Float01-250px.wide.jpg" alt="" style="float: right; padding: 0 0 20px 20px;"/>
<p>
	Elle Macpherson Intimates introduces a kaleidoscope of vintage-inspired prints, delectable pops of colour, and superior style this season.
</p>
<p>
	Creative Director, Elle Macpherson, talks of the season&rsquo;s fresh direction: &ldquo;I&rsquo;m so excited about this new colour palette; mood-lifting berry brights and juicy citrus hues are balanced with our can&rsquo;t-go-wrong modern neutrals. This is also the third season of our popular D-G cup collection so it was really important to me that we offer our customers some exciting new style additions.&rdquo;
</p>
<p>
	Introducing...
</p>
<p>
	<em>Serengeti Plains</em>: Elle&rsquo;s take on the zebra print, subtly introduced in a jacquard print design. <em>To the Moon and Back</em> features vintage styling with the comfort of a luxurious slinky knit. <em>Summer Meadow</em> is the perfect plunging bra in a bold animal print with versatile removable padding while style standout <em>Cloud Swing</em> is a beautiful balconette bra with super sleek under the bust brand.
</p>
<p>
	Elle&rsquo;s much-loved classics remain this season with <em>Artistry</em>, <em>Sheer Ribbons</em> and <em>Dentelle</em> sitting alongside new highlight pieces. <em>Constellations</em> features stretch lace on the front and back of the bra and briefs plus a sweet satin bow detail, <em>Serengeti Plains</em>, and <em>Sky of Love</em>: a stretch matte lace over contrasting coloured lining.
</p>
<p>
	Intimate&rsquo;s Afterwear collection remains close to Elle&rsquo;s heart: &ldquo;I adore our Afterwear pieces and I&rsquo;m particularly proud of these new additions to this collection.&rdquo; <em>Awakened</em> is made from an amazingly soft and comfortable modal fabric that drapes from the body beautifully. It&rsquo;s available in a chemise (with shelf bra), singlet, lounge pant and robe. <em>Luck &amp; Wishes</em>, a soft rib and diamond design pointelle singlet or t-shirt with matching lounge pants and <em>Dawn till Dusk</em>, a soft modal fabric chemise trimmed with stretch lace and a bra back design feature.
</p>
<p>
	It almost seems a shame to keep them behind closed doors...

      <link>http://www.bendonlingerie.co.nz/news/elle-macpherson-intimates-the-power-of-three/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.bendonlingerie.co.nz/media/wysiwyg/news/fixed/2009.10.04-EMI-Power-of-Three-Float01.jpg" alt="Elle Macpherson Intimates - Yorkshire Rose - 2010 Collection" style="float: right; padding: 0 0 20px 20px;" />
<p>
	Elle Macpherson Intimates introduces an eclectic mix of colour, print and texture this season. The new collection features bras with the option of removable pads, a flattering tulip shape bra, eye-catching Afterwear designs, and delicate detailing throughout.
</p>
<p>
	Intimates Creative Director, Elle Macpherson talks of the collection&rsquo;s free-spirited floral prints, fabulous pops of colour, and some standout new silhouettes.
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;This season I&rsquo;ve introduced my new tulip bra which is a beautiful new directional shape that I&rsquo;m sure women will love. I&rsquo;m also excited about the deeper European cut of my &lsquo;Union&rsquo; bra; it delivers a truly amazing shape that&rsquo;s perfect to wear under plunging necklines,&rdquo; says Elle.
</p>
<p>
	Black takes a back seat this season in favour of softer, skin-friendly shades like &lsquo;Raisin Brown&rsquo;, &lsquo;Marsh Brown&rsquo;, and &lsquo;Petrol Blue&rsquo;.
</p>
<p>
	New additions to the D-G range offer yet more feminine options for larger cup sizes. &lsquo;Yorkshire Rose&rsquo; is a beautiful new floral interpretation which is available across the full Intimates size range.
</p>
<p>
	Afterwear echoes the mix of beautiful laces and satins with its own exotic twist: the use of animal-inspired prints - an Intimates signature - throughout key pieces. Elle sums up her new Intimates collection: &ldquo;No matter what the day may have in store, I want women to wear my lingerie &lsquo;their way&rsquo; and be inspired every morning when they&rsquo;re getting dressed.&rdquo;

      <description><![CDATA[<p>
	World record holders Eamon Sullivan and Stephanie Rice have today joined forces as the faces, and bodies, of iconic underwear company Davenport. The popular swimming pair will front the Summer 2008 campaign as Ambassadors for Davenport, and will be seen wearing the product in advertising across Australia and New Zealand.
</p>
<p>
	The exciting announcement comes after Davenport&rsquo;s recent multi-million relaunch of its men&rsquo;s and women&rsquo;s underwear range and is just in time ahead of the expected increase in exposure for Eamon and Stephanie as they compete on the global stage in August.
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;We are very excited to have Eamon and Stephanie on board as both are current global sports heroes,&rdquo; commented David Thompson, General Manager of Gazal underwear. &ldquo;With their recent world record breaking efforts, coupled with their great looks, they are undoubtedly the golden couple of the pool at the moment.&rdquo;
</p>
<p>
	The signing of Eamon and Stephanie is the next step in Davenport&rsquo;s already successful assault to establish a greater share of the underwear market. The swimmers will be seen wearing all the latest in Davenport&rsquo;s range, from the comfortable basics to more fun and cheeky patterns including a Black and White range. The new advertising campaign featuring Eamon and Stephanie will be seen across Australia and New Zealand in print and online from July.
</p>
<p>
	Both Eamon and Stephanie are very excited about coming on board as Ambassadors for Davenport.
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;I&rsquo;m a huge fan of the Davenport range, and had a lot of fun at the shoot,&rdquo; Eamon commented. &ldquo;It is exciting to partner with a brand that is youthful and a bit cheeky, but more importantly, that produces a great product.&rdquo;
</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;Working with Davenport is an amazing opportunity and a good chance to have some fun out of the pool,&rdquo; Stephanie added. &ldquo;With all the fun prints, bright colours and cute little detailing it is hard not to get excited about working with such great products.&rdquo;
</p>
<p>
	The product will be available at Farmers and all good specialty stores.
