Emma Roberts was nervous about her sexy new lingerie campaign photos because she feared she’s too pale to be model.
The “American Horror Story” star stripped down to her underwear for the latest #AerieREAL campaign, which portrays un-retouched models wearing the American Eagle brand’s lingerie, and admits she was terrified she’d look washed out in the images.
She tells People magazine, “I definitely have a complex about being pale because I’ve been made fun of my whole life, so I was nervous about that.
“When I was a kid, everyone would be like, ‘Your legs are so pale! I can’t believe you’re wearing a dress!’ And I would get so embarrassed. I would get spray tans, and I look back at those photos now, and I just think, ‘Oh my goodness, you’re orange’. I would tell my younger self to stop spray-tanning so much. Just own it.”
But she was such a fan of the #AerieREAL campaign she put her worries to one side and stripped off.
She adds, “I just loved the messaging behind it. I thought the whole idea was so inspiring… I hope that with this campaign they (young women) start seeing ‘real’ as beautiful and just who you are, inside and out.”

Back in October 2014, Ade Hassan — frustrated by the narrow definition of nude as it applied to lingerie — founded Nubian Skin, an alternative to brands that carried exclusively light nude tones or plain black bras without much in between. Now, almost a year later, the brand has exploded in the U.K., and American customers wait up to three weeks for their shipments. But the wait is finally over: Today, the brand finally launched at Nordstrom.
Unlike many other brands, Nubian Skin is the only lingerie retailer that truly caters to women of all colors and is the best resource when looking for different nude undergarments. They not only provide four different shades, ranging from Café Au Lait to Berry, but also have a skin-tone guide to help you find what works for you, listing popular foundation colors that match up from brands like M.A.C, Iman, and Bobbi Brown. Their launch with Nordstrom features two different bra styles and one brief, with more to come. It’s great timing that coincides with your summer white-clothes-wearing needs.
The essential T-shirt bra now comes in four colors and sits smoothly under clothing, with a light underwire for a seamless look.
And the strapless convertible bra has detachable straps so you can wear it two different ways. It features soft, molded cups to give you support without padding.
T-Shirt Bra in Café Au Lait, $55 at Nordstrom, T-Shirt Bra in Caramel, $55 at Nordstrom, T-Shirt Bra in Berry, $55 at Nordstrom.
Strapless Bra in Cinnamon, $60 at Nordstrom, Briefs in Cinnamon, $16 at Nordstrom, Strapless Bra in Café Au Lait, $60 at Nordstrom, Briefs in Café Au Lait, $16 at Nordstrom Strapless Bra in Berry, $60 at Nordstrom, Briefs in Berry, $16 at Nordstrom.
