SYDNEY – Singer Janet Jackson’s "wardrobe
malfunction" at the Superbowl made headlines four years ago
when her bustier ripped. Now, she really wants people to see
her underwear, and is launching her own lingerie line.
The Grammy-winning singer has joined forces
with Sydney-based designer Bruno Schiavi to create Pleasure
Principle, a lingerie line named after her 1987 global hit.
Schiavi, who founded the Jupi Corporation
in 1996, has previously partnered with Australian singer Delta
Goodrem and actress Priscilla Presley to create underwear
lines.
Jackson, 42, said the collection would be
lacy and sexy.
"You will see a lot of satin and lace
combined and rich colors such as burgundy and beige, silver
and peach as well as your classic black and white," Jackson
said in a statement. "It makes you feel incredible and offers
variety as diverse as the women who will wear it."
The brand’s first collection will debut in US department
stores in November with 14 bra styles and sizes ranging from
32A to 44G. The line also will be launched in Australia, Japan
and Europe. – Reuters
