Sadie Frost had to apologise in 2012 after her 11-year-old daughter, Iris, was pictured alongside her at a fashion show wearing a dress patterned with slogans such as ‘blow me’ and ‘eat sh*t’.

Now the actress, who also runs the fashion label FrostFrench with long-time friend Jemima French, has controversially enlisted Iris’s help with designing a new lingerie line ‘aimed at a younger, fashionable customer’.

The Iris Edie line, created for Debenhams and named after Iris, now 13, and French’s 16-year-old daughter, Edie, already encompasses pyjamas and loungewear.

But, from next month, it is expanding into lingerie with items such as brightly-coloured lace bras and knickers, which Iris, whose father is the actor Jude Law, helped design.

‘Iris and Edie were a strong influence on the collection from the word go and we all had great fun creating sketch books of inspirations,’ says Sadie of the provocative line.

Critics, however, suggest the range potentially breaches the recommendations made by the 2011 Bailey Review into the sexualisation of children, which was backed by David Cameron.

‘If Debenhams are proposing to sell see-through pants named after an under-16 year-old, then they’re not working within the spirit of the Bailey Review recommendations and we’d call on them to review their proposals,’ says Roz Hardie, chief executive of Object, which campaigns against the objectification of women in the media.

‘Particularly to link them to the names of under-16 year-olds, whether deliberate or not, is inappropriate.’

Debenhams was one of a number of retailers who signed up to guidelines on age-appropriate clothing for children issued by the British Retail Consortium in response to the Bailey Review recommendations.

A spokesman for Debenhams tells me: ‘Iris Edie by Frost French is aimed at a younger, fashionable customer. The range already comprises sleep and loungewear and now includes a new age-appropriate underwear and lingerie line.’

Iris, who was a bridesmaid at Kate Moss’s 2011 wedding to musician Jamie Hince, hit the headlines at the age of two when she was rushed to hospital after swallowing an ecstasy tablet she found on the floor of private members’ club Soho House.

Britney Spears is currently traveling to promote her new lingerie line—Intimate Britney Spears—having most recently made an appearance across the pond in London where she turned heads in a navy jumpsuit as she showcased the collection. 

And while each individual intimate story (yes, the various lines, including Buttercup, Angelica and 10 additional collections are all called stories) are all currently available online for a fairly reasonable price, the pop princess has one high-profile client in mind, with a regal resume to boot, that she hopes will don her frilly bras and panties. 

Any guesses as to whom?

“I would love to see Kate in my underwear designs,” the 32-year-old singer told reporters (per Vanity Fair) at the London debut of her lingerie line. “That would be splendid. I’m going to send her one of every piece. So she’ll have plenty to choose from.” 

Who knew Spears is such a big fan of the Duchess of Cambridge?! 

The newly single songstress added that she would love to see fellow pop star Gwen Stefani sport her designs as well. “I’d love to see Gwen Stefani modeling my collection,” the blond beauty shared. “I think she’s very cool and sexy.”

Meanwhile, Spears stunned at the event in a wide-leg jumpsuit with a plunging neckline and a tie at the waist. She teamed the trendy ensemble with a stack of gold bracelets and a long gold necklace chain while wearing her hair in soft, feathered waves. 

“Every woman should feel confident and beautiful in everything she puts on,” Britney said in a statement upon the announcement of her new lingerie line. “My vision for The Intimate Britney Spears is to create pieces that are sexy, luxurious, and comfortable at the same time.”

Britney’s pieces are currently available online, with prices ranging from $17 to $79.
