They are two of the most glamorous celebrities of the moment, and are rarely seen out of bodycon dresses or tight trousers.

So it was something of a close call when Abbey Crouch and Sarah Harding competed for attention at the Lingerie London show on Wednesday night.

The pair both showed off their stunning figures in equally revealing ensembles as they took to the catwalk at the runway show, held at Old Billingsgate Market in the capital.

Abbey, 26, kicked things off in a floral
two-piece, complete with a matching embellished capelet and suspender
belt, with red-trimmed stockings and a pair of silver court shoes.

She wore her blonde hair voluminous
and loose, and topped off her make-up with sparkly eyeshadow and
lashings of eyeliner – adding to the glamour of the occasion.

Mother-of-one Abbey later changed
into a gold sequinned corset, which she teamed with a pair of black
and gold knickers, thigh-high black and gold star-print socks and a pair of
striped matching wedge heels.

Abbey looked more than confident as
she strutted her stuff down the catwalk, primping and posing the entire
time, and showed off her incredible post-baby body in the outfits.

But she certainly had some competition in the glamour stakes from Girls Aloud star Sarah Harding.

Despite being a few years older than Abbey, 31-year-old Sarah looked every inch the glamourpuss as she made her way down the catwalk in a policewoman inspired ensemble,

The singer wore a sheer black shirt,
teamed with black knickers, suspenders and stockings, and cinched in at
the waist with a black waspie.

She finished off her outfit with a pair of aviator-style sunglasses, and wore a pair of thigh-high lace-up boots to complete the sexy look.

Other stars to take part in the show included Zara Martin and Peaches Geldof.

But mother-of-one Peaches opted out of showing off her figure in underwear, instead wearing a full-length white dress.

However, Peaches’ ensemble still
displayed her slender post-baby body, as it clung to her while she made
her way down the catwalk.

It wasn’t only young stars who took part in the runway show.

Fashion model Marie Helvin, 60, who made history when she appeared on the cover of Vogue magazine an incredible 12 times, showed off her still amazing figure in a black underwear set, with a sheer navy robe over the top.

Peaches needs to file down those dreadfully long new teeth. And frankly they needed to have given Sarah Harding a bit more material down there….! It’s bordering on obscene!

Penelope and Monica Cruz to Launch Lingerie Line with Agent Provocateur

Penelope Cruz attends the ‘Venuto al Mondo’ (Volver A Nacer) photocall at the Kursaal Palace during the 60th San Sebastian International Film Festival on Sept. 25, 2012 in San Sebastian, Spain.

In a bid to extend its appeal beyond the 1%, superluxe lingerie brand Agent Provocateur has announced the creation of L’Agent, its first diffusion line, in partnership with sisters Penelope and Monica Cruz. More than a dozen styles are anticipated, each containing pieces such as bras, underwear and corsets.

Intended to be a standalone collection, L’Agent will be designed independently from the main line and sold at various retailers worldwide, though not in Agent Provocateur’s own stores or website (better not to cannibalize its own sales, we assume). Slated to launch on Aug. 1, the diffusion line’s price point will be significantly lower than Agent Provocateur’s—a bra will run you $300 and a corset $1190 in the brand’s stores, while the average price of an item from L’Agent is $64.

Agent Provocateur was founded in 1994 by Joe Corre, the son of British designer Vivienne Westwood and punk artist Malcolm McLaren, along with Corre’s then-wife Serena Rees. The brand has always embodied an aspirational decadence and sensuality, but now it seems to have set its sights on a slightly younger, more cost-conscious customer as well.

The company is confidently banking on sultry sexpot Penelope Cruz and her sister Monica to be the faces of L’Agent, in addition to their behind-the-scenes involvement. The CEO of Agent Provocateur, Garry Hogarth, told WWD that he envisioned their partnership lasting a minimum of five years.

“It is so exciting for me and Monica to embark on this new adventure. We have always been huge fans of Agent Provocateur and both of us are very much looking forward to this long-term collaboration,” Penelope told WWD.

Monica Cruz also appears in the Agent Provocateur’s latest ad campaign, though this sort of partnership is nothing new to the duo: previously, Monica and Penelope have collaborated with Spanish retailer Mango, as well as handbag designer Samantha Thavasa.

If L’Agent can make the average woman feel as sexy as either of these sisters, Agent Provocateur should have quite the moneymaker on its hands.
