La Perla’s first haute-couture collection is designed for those who have a passion for feathers. In Paris, the Italian lingerie brand La Perla showcased their latest creation, a custom-made bra embellished with feathers. This piece of lingerie wings its way in to the most-desirable list as it is decked with flowers made of feathers.While the use of feathers in the fashion industry isn’t new, the goose-feather bra has upped the ante for haute couture shoppers. For the price of $3,074, each feather of this bespoke bra is hand-dyed and sewn in place at the label’s Bologna, Italy, factory. One image from the catwalk portrays the model flaunting a long-line bra teamed with a high-waisted suspender brief set. Both the pieces along with the stockings features the signature feather embroidery.

The Italian corsetry label has also designed a complementing sleeveless hoodie bestrewn with same feathers. La Perla claims that the $8,448 feathered bodysuit is a best-seller for its haute couture catwalk collection. Another image from La Perla haute couture collection shows the model clad in a hooded silk robe with feathers on the trim and back panel. The long-sleeved tulle suspender bodysuit also features the same feather embellishment along the neckline as well on the stockings.

Apart from the elegant use of the feathers, other appreciate-worthy details of La Perla’s haute couture collection includes fine hand pleating and cottony soft lace.

Though La Perla was founded in 1954, the brand is still spreading out to strengthen its presence by building stores in China, Europe and the U.S. with a new Italianate design by architect Roberto Baciocchi. Many of the stores include VIP salons for private appointments, such as one at the newly renovated Madison Avenue store in New York. In the U.S., there are new stores coming or recently opened in Atlanta, San Francisco, Houston, Bal Harbour, Fla., and Chicago.

Jourdan Dunn has proven she can look flawless in any photo at any given time.

The 24-year-old model, who has campaigned for the likes of Balmain, Calvin Klein and Yves Saint Laurent, took to her social media sites on Thursday to share a beautiful snap of herself in bed, just minutes after waking up.

Lying against a pillow, the British beauty drew heaps of attention to her ample cleavage in some racy black lingerie while smiling widely at the camera lens.

Elsewhere, Jourdan was among the many models that attended a host of extravagant parties during Cannes Film Festival last month.

But it was back to work for the star on Wednesday afternoon as she was seen on the set of a fashion shoot in central London.

The mother-of-one looked stunning as ever as she struck a pose in a patterned blue top and black trousers which was teamed with black flats.

The model kept warm with a large black jacket in between takes before posing for more photos in a sequinned top and black skinny jeans.

She then changed into a cream jumper and light blue jeans. With a multi-coloured scarf wrapped around her shoulders, the look was completed with a dark pink handbag and beige trainers.

Her locks were swept over her left shoulder and worn in loose waves while her natural beauty shone through with the help of fresh-faced make-up.

Jourdan recently revealed her glamorous job has taken its toll on her hair after admitting that she’s taken to wearing wigs to give her natural locks a break from styling because her tresses were becoming so damaged, they started falling out at the front.

Speaking to HELLO! magazine, she said: ‘My hair has been so damaged with heat and styling because most hairdressers still don’t know what to do with Afro hair.’ Jourdan revealed that last year, her hair stylist, Renda Attia, insisted that she needed to give her hair a break and start wearing wigs.

She continued: ‘I mean, I had no hair around my hairline – it was like baby hair, it was so damaged. So I’ve been wearing wigs and having them changed every month, having lots of conditioning treatments and, finally, my hair is growing back.’ Jourdan, who counts supermodel Naomi Campbell as her mentor, was scouted in her local Primark store at the age of 15.

She has since become one of the most prolific faces in the fashion industry, with her modelling gigs landing her a spot on Forbes’ list of the World’s Highest-Paid Models last year with a cool £2.5million in the bank.
