Lily Cole models a corset bodice created for the Triumph


Hot Cole: Lily models winning design of lingerie competition at Berlin Fashion Week

Last updated at 5:57 PM on 7th July 2011

 
Having just graduated from Cambridge with a double first, Lily Cole should spend the summer celebrating.
Instead, the model is back at work and on the catwalk at Berlin Fashion Week.
Lily showed off her curves in the winning lingerie design, created by finalist Boglárka Bódis for the Triumph Inspiration award show.

Entitled 'Les Fleurs du Mal, the monochrome corset bears some resemblance to the nude bodice designed by Jean Paul Gautier and made famous by Madonna. 
Hungaria Bódis, who received a 15,000 Euro prize, said: 'My design piece was inspired by the quote from one of the most beautiful poems of Les Fleurs du Mal by Baudelaire and I was moved by her words. 
'I had the desire to emphasise the eternal beauty and sensuality of the female body. Let us celebrate the women of the world without leaving out one single detail.'

Lily, also on the judging panel, modeled all 37 finalist designs in a photo shoot taken by Ellen Unwerth for the lingerie labe's website.
Bódis' lingerie will be added to Triumph's collection and sold in stores worldwide.
The winner of the most online votes was Liu Pak Yiu, from Hong Kong, who created a cutaway corset with skirt.

She said: The corset symbolizes bird cages and the protruding chiffon train imitates a bird escaping from its cage.
'The model wears the cage like a corset showing that women will not be trapped any more, they are now free and more confident.'

Holly Madison as she flaunts her curves in a retro bikini


'I’m a pig... I love food!' says Holly Madison as she flaunts her curves in a retro bikini 

Last updated at 1:20 PM on 8th July 2011

She may have acted upon the advice of producers of her hit Vegas show Peepshow by slimming down in recent months, but it doesn't mean Holly Madison has completely giving up on junk food.
As the 32-year-old stripped off to flaunt her curves in a Fifties-style bikini, she admitted her love affair for fried food and desserts continues.
The former Girls' Next Door star put her body on show in blue and white swimsuit as she posed pool side.

The star shunned heavy air-brushing in favour of a more natural looking shoot. 
In another shot, she shows off her ample cleavage in a low-cut black one piece paired with black stilettos.
 
When it comes to her favourite food, Holly says she can't help but indulge.
'I love chicken fingers, I love French fries. I love desserts. I’m not just into dessert of just into savoury food. I love it all. I’m a pig. I love food. So it takes a lot of discipline to eat healthy,' she told Star magazine.

While Hugh Hefner's former number one girlfriend admits that she cut down on high calorie treats in her bid to lose 15 pounds at the request of her bosses of her Vegas show.
'Recently, I’ve really gotten my eating habits back on track. [I have] a protein bar for breakfast, fruit as a snack and a healthy chicken salad for lunch,' she said.
'Then I will get a grilled chicken breast for dinner, with avocado and vegetables on the side.  I love adding BBQ sauce too.'
To burn off the calories, Holly does a variety of exercise, but says she has a penchant for Pilates.
'I have a treadmill in my house, which is great because even if I jump on it for a little bit, it makes me feel better,' she said. 'I love yoga and Pilates too. I have a private Pilates instructor I go to once a week,' she said. 
And like any other woman, Holly admits that there are parts of her figure she would like change, especially her stomach, which she believes will always have a bulge.
Natural: In what appears to be snaps not tainted by over-airbrushing, Holly could well may be a Fifties pin-up with her dangerous curves

'If I could have a Barbie body, which has no cellulite, I totally would. I would like to have a flatter stomach, but that won’t happen either,' she said.
'That is never going to happen. No matter how much weight I lose, my stomach, below the belly button, always pooches out.'
Earlier this year Holly was dealt a blow when producers of her burlesque review Peep Show, ordered her to lose weight.
Holly, who then weighed 115 pounds, was told by producers to lose the 15 pounds she gained when she moved from the Playboy Mansion to Sin City.
The indefatigable blonde said at the time: 'I always thought I looked fine. It was a shock to me when they told me to lose weight. I'm still up in the air over what to do.
Revealing: In another shot, she shows off her ample cleavage in a low-cut black cut-out one piece paired with black stilettos

'I feel like I changed my eating habits to really healthy; I've lost a few pounds. I'm still getting there and deciding if I even want to lose weight.'
Happily Holly, who has always been proud of her realistic curves, resisted the urge to become a stick insect.
Career-wise it seems it was the right move - the Holly's World reality star has seen her life-after-the Playboy Mansion show do well on E!.

Beyoncé shows she is still as bootylicious


The bottom line: Beyoncé shows she is still as bootylicious as ever in risqué new photoshoot

Last updated at 1:19 PM on 8th July 2011
She blew away the competition with her headlining set at Glastonbury last month - and Beyoncé appears to be warming up for her set at the T In The Park festival this weekend by wearing very little. 
The 29-year-old star has just released a set of daring images of herself wearing a range of skimpy outfits, including a bottom-baring backless dress and a thigh-flashing, pant-skimming corset frock. 
The Single Ladies singer, who is thought to have lost around a stone in weight to get herself in shape for her current set of lates, also sports a range of outlandish hair styles.

Bey also strips down to a stripy bikini with frilly bottoms and saucily sticks her tongue out while wearing an extravagant headdress in another of the images. 
They're all part of the promotional campaign around the release of the singer's new album 4, which has been topping the UK charts for the past fortnight. 
 
However, it's doubtful that Beyoncé will be wearing any of the barely-there designs from her latest photoshoot to play the Scottish three-day event this weekend. 
As often happens for the al fresco music fandango north of the border, it's set to chuck it down. 
But while Beyoncé may decide not to plump for her brave her big pants ensemble like she did at Glastonbury, some of her fellow acts on the bill are pledging to battle the elements.

Tinie Tempah has pledged to wear a kilt when he plays the event - regardless of the weather.
He told the Daily Record: 'I wore a kilt the first time I went to Scotland. But it didn't go down too well.
'It seemed to backfire because people didn't get it. It didn't feel right and people were puzzled.'
'I'm still trying to figure the kilt out. I'll ask someone to help me. I am going to see if I can get another one and do it properly.'
He continued: 'I can get the bag bit as well, but not if it's too windy.' 
However, the Pass Out star has declined to say whether or not he will be wearing anything under it or not and abiding further with Scottish tradition...

The festival is notorious for being rain-soaked, but the up-for-it crowd never let conditions get in the way of their enjoyment. 
While Friday is set to be dry at the site near Balado in Kinross, Saturday and Sunday are set to be utter wash-outs with non-stop rain turning it into a mudbath. 
Beyoncé warms up for Coldplay, who headline the main stage on the Saturday.
Arctic Monkeys meanwhile top the bill on Friday and Foo Fighters round things up on the Sunday.  
Other acts include Pulp, Plan B, Pendulum, Manic Street Preachers, Leftfield, Beady Eye and Tom Jones. 
Beyoncé meanwhile skips across the Irish Sea after her T In The Park show to play the Oxegen Festival in County Kildare, Ireland, on Sunday.

NASCAR beauty Paige Duke


NASCAR beauty Paige Duke dropped as 'Sprint Cup Girl' after explicit nude pictures surface online 

Last updated at 12:46 PM on 8th July 2011
This is one car loving Miss Duke who should have kept her shorts on.
Model and part time animal nurse Paige Duke, 24, has been fired as one of NASCAR's three 'Sprint Cup Girls' after nude pictures of her emerged on the internet.
Gutted: Miss Sprint Cup Paige Duke during driver introductions before the start of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The model and vet is devastated after the nude pictures emerged

Miss Duke, who travelled the country as one of the sport's roving reporters, was fired because the graphic shots broke mobile phone operator and sponsor Sprint's 'morality code'.
The pictures of an 18-year-old Miss Duke were taken at college and sent to an ex-boyfriend.
Speaking to Fox news, a devastated Miss Duke said: 'I did not intend for anybody to see these and now I'm exploited.
'This is the most embarrassing thing that could have ever happened to me.
'I lost my job, the best job I could have ever asked for, it was perfect for me.'
Miss Duke says the pictures - which show her fully nude in a number of compromising positions - were taken in her dorm room at Clemson University.
She added: 'We're still investigating how these pictures got out there.
'All we know is they came from his computer, he's the only person I sent them to.'
A repentant Miss Duke continued: 'I just want to set the record straight, I'm going to own up to my mistakes. 
'It's something I did, I've cried enough tears over it, I'm tired of crying, I'm tired of hiding from everybody.'
As one of three Sprint Cup Girls, Miss Duke would interview drivers, mechanics and team bosses throughout the season.

Travelling almost every weekend, Miss Duke had been in the job for over a year before her friend alerted her that the pictures were being posted via email and message boards.  
Ironically, Miss Duke's Modelling page rules out any 'topless or nude shots'.
She wrote: 'Hey ya'll! I'm a college student and print, bikini, and promotional model.
'I love everything about modelling, pictures, and travelling.

'God as really blessed me with everything in life... But since I can't be the country singer I'd love to be (don't have that talent) this is the next best thing haha.
'I am open to many types of photography including glamour, fashion, pinup, swimsuit, etc but please don't contact me about NUDES OR TOPLESS--I WON'T DO IT.'
Her sacking has caused outrage on Twitter and two Facebook groups calling for her reinstatement are attracting hundreds of fans.
One, Gregg Paul, wrote: 'As humans we make mistakes, Paige made hers at 18. 
'It's what we do to better ourselves, that is what counts. 
'Let's not forget, the sport we love started running illegal moonshine. The drug alcohol, the illicit drug of the time.'
A spokesman for Sprint said in a statement: 'We'll all miss her and wish her nothing but the best in her future.'
