For years, the term “nude,” used to describe the color of everything from bandages to bras, has been defined in relation to white skin. Well, a new lingerie company is hoping all out to change that. Nubian Skin is a new brand dedicated to producing nude-toned pieces for women of color. From the company’s blog:
“A nude bra, skin-tone tights / pantyhose – basics of every woman’s wardrobe In theory…It’s the grand debate, what do I wear under a white or sheer blouse? What colour hosiery will go with these amazing shoes? Black just isn’t going to work. The simple answer is nude. But my nude isn’t the nude I see in shops. Despite the reality that women of colour have the same needs as all women when it comes to lingerie and hosiery (and spend the same of their hard-earned money), the industry simply doesn’t cater to us. So, I thought, it’s time to rethink the definition of nude. Thus, Nubian Skin was born.”
Nubian Skin’s e-commerce site will go live in a few weeks but you can check out their offerings on NubianSkin.com today.
Britney Spears glowed as she unveiled her new lingerie line as part of New York Fashion Week today.
The singer showed off her slim figure in a plunging red jumpsuit by Rhea Costa for the launch party, as she was surrounded by models showing off her lacy and ribboned bras and knickers.
With some stripping down to red and black lace numbers, others showed off their tiny figures in lacy nightwear for The Intimate Britney Spears collection.
“This is something I’ve been working on for two and a half years,” Britney said on stage after the show. “I’m really, really passionate about this.”
The stunner has various product placement and endorsement deals, ranging from successful perfume lines to toys and games, but this has to be our favourite.

That’s quite the launch!
It comes as the 32-year-old takes a break from her two-year Las Vegas residency – and it looks like all that performing has done her good.
There was no hint that the star was struggling after her split from boyfriend David Lucado.
According to various porn sites Cali is aged 24 and just 5 ft tall.
She has been in the industry since 2009 and is believed to have starred in just twenty scenes throughout her career, which apparently is not much for a porn star.
Mirror Celeb has contacted a rep for Britney for comment.
