She’s proved herself one of most enduring faces in fashion, now in her fourth decades of modelling.

And despite being 44, Naomi Campbell showed she’s just as sexy in lingerie than her contemporaries half her age.

The London-born beauty closed the La Perla’s debut Atelier show at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week on Monday afternoon.

Wearing a black ensemble comprising of knickers, bra, stockings and suspenders with a sheer silk waistcoat-type on top, Naomi sashayed down the catwalk at the Hôtel Salomon de Rothschild.

Following her moment in the spotlight, Naomi tweeted: ‘@LaPerlaLingerie thank you for a great show.’

Other familiar faces walking in the show were Brazilian model Izabel Goulart, 30, and Russia’s Natasha Poly, 29.

Naomi Campbell defied her 44-years of age as she strutted her stuff down the catwalk for La Perla’s first ever couture show in Paris.

The best news is that we don’t have to wait to get what she’s wearing. You can buy Naomi’s exact bra (right) and high-waisted briefs (below)!

Although if the $264.00 and $418.00 price tags have you balking we’ve found a very similar bra from Calvin Klein at Net-A-Porter for only $40.00 with a matching thong for $18.00.

Yet if you want to sex it up a little further we’ve sourced a lacier version from L’agent by L’agent Provacateur for $82.00, also from Net-A-Porter.

This bra comes with all kinds of matching accoutrements including lace-trimmed stretch-satin briefs and a garter strap with suspenders so that you can rock those thigh high pantyhose as if you were on a catwalk of your own!

The La Perla show came on day two of Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, which was kicked off on Sunday evening with a Versace show. 

Naomi’s latest catwalk appearance came after she gave her opinion on the rising trend of ‘Instagirls’ – models who are discovered on Instagram.

Speaking on the Meredith Vieira show on Friday, Naomi said she wasn’t impressed with those who didn’t work hard to get where they are.

She said: ‘It’s amazing. I mean, good luck to them.

‘I just feel my generation of women, like Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Claudia [Schiffer], we had to earn our stripes and take our stepping stones to get to where we have gotten to accomplish what we have achieved to this date.

‘I kind of feel like, “My God, we’ve worked so hard and we are still working at it – then it just comes like that for them.” But I sometimes believe easy come, easy go. So I am actually grateful for the way I had my career. I wouldn’t want it any other way. So that’s for them, this is me.’

Maternity Lingerie Is Genius—Here’s Why

While sifting through some emails, I stumbled onto one from a few months ago that I had to bubble back to the top of my to-write-about list. During New York City’s Lingerie Week, a brand did a runway show that was all about pregnant women and showing off bras (and matching underwear) made for them. It’s called You! Lingerie and I got designer Uyo Okebie-Eichelberger to explain where the idea came from and how it’s been received. I mean, those pictures are too fascinating not to, right?

Glamour: Where did the idea to start the brand come from?

Uyo Okebie-Eichelberger: When I was pregnant with my own daughter five years ago, I searched high and low for cute nursing bras and quickly realized they didn’t exist. All the options were drab and bland-colored, not to mention overpriced and looked like something a grandmother would wear. I chatted with some of my girlfriends who had recently had babies and they all felt the same way.

Glamour: How has the response been? Do you find pregnant women need convincing to wear lingerie?

UOE: It’s been amazing. We just celebrated four years and are sold online and in over 120 stores around the world. It resonates [with women] because they believe pregnancy is beautiful. Breast-feeding is beautiful. Why wear unflattering lingerie at a time when you need stylish ones the most? I’ve heard some women say they were not looking forward to breast-feeding because they didn’t want to wear depressing utilitarian nursing bras. You’re a mom, yes, but you are still a woman.

Glamour: What do you tell women who aren’t comfortable with shopping for or wearing lingerie while they’ve got a baby bump?

UOE: Not all women feel particularly sexy during pregnancy, and that’s OK. But a great reminder is that you are growing a person inside of you and that is very beautiful. Embrace your new curves. Beauty is a state of grace and not a particular look, size, or weight. Wearing pretty maternity lingerie is just one of many ways to celebrate you as a woman. You are pregnant and glowing.

Glamour: What design concerns did you have to think about? Is every bra a nursing style? Is the underwear different from normal styles?

UOE: With maternity and nursing bras, it’s all about fit, fit, fit. The body changes during pregnancy, and breasts are getting heavier and more sensitive, so designing a bra that’s comfy, fit greats, and provides great support is super important. All the bras are designed to fit Mom during pregnancy and after the baby is born with features like a four-hook back closure, wide straps, breathable fabric, and cups that are lined in 100 percent cotton. They’re nursing-friendly, with clips and drop-down cups for breast-feeding with one-hand access to make it easy and convenient for a mom to nurse while holding her baby. The panties are designed to fit and sit right under the baby bump during pregnancy.

Glamour: Are the pieces designed to be worn post-pregnancy?

UOE: Yes. With a four-hook closure, it’s made to fit comfortably on the tightest hook early in the pregnancy with the ability to adjust to the loosest hook by the last trimester and postpartum. Depending on how much a woman’s breast changes, especially after milk comes in when the baby is born, it’s not uncommon for a mother to need a new size.

Uyo also told me finding pregnant models isn’t tricky at all; she works with an agency called Expecting Models. “Thank goodness there are models who want to experience motherhood and continue to work through their pregnancy!”

Any moms out there? What was your experience with your bras (and lingerie) pre- and post-baby?
