A colorful and titillating pictorial history of the sexiest attire of all.
Lingerie has always been the ultimate tease in ladies' attire, a statement of style, elegance, provocation, sexual politics...even malice. This incisive, colorful volume presents the history of lingerie through vintage prints and advertisements as well as in babe-alicious photos of the most beautiful models and actresses, from Marilyn Monroe to Angelina Jolie.
Culminating in a special chapter on Victoria's Secret, Lingerie traces the path from corsets and girdles through ever more liberating and sexy garments for the flesh.
