*Naomi Campbell has teamed up with Italian brand Yamamay for an exclusive, limited-edition collection of lingerie, which includes bras, panties, slips and camisoles priced between $32 and $65. The supermodel also stars in the ads for the “IamNaomiCampbell” collection, which was shot my famed fashion photographer Mario Testino.
According to WWD, the range will boast “a nocturnal color palette, including black and purple, and enriched with precious decors.” As of now, Campbell’s collection is available on Yamamay’s website, which does not ship to the U.S.
Campbell’s entry into the lingerie world seems overdue, as fashionista.com notes, other supermodels such as Helena Christensen, Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum, Bar Rafaeli and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley already have their own lines or have collaborated with established brands.
The “IamNaomiCampbell” collection features lingerie sets with such fierce names as “Supervillain” and “Magnificent.” Of course, as you admire Campbell’s flawless form in these ads, it’s no wonder lingerie brands like Agent-Provocateur and La Perla have hired her for campaigns.

Meanwhile, Campbell, who has been at the top of her game for nearly 30 years, has also turned her hand to acting – with roles in “Empire” and “American Horror Story: Hotel” as Vogue editor Claudia Bankson.
In a interview with The Independent, Campbell revealed that she landed the role of Claudia partly because of Anna Wintour – the infamous editor-in-chief of U.S. Vogue.
“She sat me next to [series co-creator] Ryan [Murphy] at a dinner party, so I should really thank her,” said Campbell who also plays Camilla Marks on “Empire.”
Murphy recalled that meeting with Campbell during a chat with Entertainment Weekly. “I was at a dinner party, and I sat next to Naomi Campbell, and obviously I’ve always loved her,” Murphy shared. “I said, ‘We’re writing this episode and do you wanna come on the show and play something extreme?’”
“She was very excited about her upcoming moments that she has that push the boundaries,” Murphy added. “So I said, ‘Great.’ I offered it to her and she accepted. She’s very professional.”

Now open: Flirt Boutique offers lingerie in the North Loop

A bit of St. Paul crossed over to Minneapolis last weekend for the grand opening of Flirt Boutique’s second location. The weekend celebration featured chocolates, sparkling wine, boudoir photography, beauty samples, and a sneak peek at what the new store has to offer.
The St. Paul lingerie boutique, winner of City Pages “Best Lingerie Shop” in 2015, has expanded with a second location in the North Loop business district of Minneapolis. The new space is located in the Colonial Warehouse, where men’s fashion and furnishing store MartinPatrick3 also resides.
Both Flirts carry bras from made-in-the-USA brand Hanky Panky, sustainable lingerie line Underprotection, Antigel by Lise Charmel, and Eberjey. There’s accessories such as garter belts, stockings by Falke, and jewelry from local designer Helen Wang. Plus, a selection of perfumes, massage oils, and lingerie care items can be found in stores.
Flirt is also the sole Twin Cities retailer for Wisconsin-based, bespoke lingerie line Jagress Intimates.
Although Jagress Intimates will be offered at both locations, according to Flirt manager Maria French, there won’t be a lot of overlap between merchandise available at each store. The new space will carry items with bolder styles, modern shapes, and geometric prints, which is may be a bit unexpected for those familiar with the St. Paul location’s offerings on old-school Hollywood glam.
“The Minneapolis store will focus on the young professionals that live and work in the neighborhood who are looking for something chic and contemporary but still feminine,” says French.
There may also be plans for the Minneapolis location’s basement, which is currently under construction. “[We] are throwing around the idea of doing resort and swimwear,” she says. “We went to Market in New York, and saw some swimwear lines we fell in love with.”
As for future parties, shoppers can look forward to collaborative events with nearby bridal boutique L’Atelier and MartinPatrick3.
