RUNAWAY

Most of you have probably seen Kanye's directorial debut in the musical/ short film Runaway. I love that it was poetic and Kanye is a lyrical/imagery genius..but I felt that he was trying tooo hard to be "artisitic" but the mind of Kanye has so much going on that he probably has to put everything down. Selita Ebanks was great as the fallen phoenix, and kuudos to her for her acting skills.
My favourite part of the whole film (which made me laugh) was the scene where there is a feast and they place a dead turkey in front of the pheonix and she goes nuts! Her form changes and her wings expand- Sooo beautiful!

I just love the feather lingerie ( if it is lingerie)



Here's the film:

Private Dancer



The chain mail lingerie is off the hooooookkkk! I love the styling and production of this shoot - the loud accessories against an eerie background.

Fayre-est of them all?

Fayreform is a British lingerie brand that caters to women with sizes 32-40. C to J cup.  Their collections consist mainly of full cup bras, 3/4 cup, balconette, bandeau bras and moulded bras. They beautify their bra with delicate embroidery, lace, velvet and satin "made to be seen straps".

I love the primrose pink coloured bras in the collection; they look very soft and feminine. 


What I love about Fayreform is that they have not compromised style by giving the bras thick  ugly straps that are in my opinion an eye-sore! More and more I am learning about bras and the most important lesson so far is that bra straps are not the support of the bra - the sling part with the cups and hooks (foundation) is the support. The straps are there to raise the breasts.  Many women use the straps as support which causes back pain and grooves in their shoulders (mynippon.com). If a bra is well made then there is no need to have humongous scaffolding for the bra, its ugly and not sexy!

The band around the body should bear the weight of your breasts; not the shoulder straps.

Til next time,

The Bbyckz team understand the importance of a good bra, and that is why we are dedicating a lot in terms of time, money and research to creating a collection of bras that we would love wear ourselves and would happily share with others that are plagued with the same issues we faced growing up.Why is it when you have big breasts, design and overall sexiness is compromised? Why do the smaller cup sizes tend to look trendier?

We want to create a collection that speaks louder than words, and cant wait to show the world our creations. As a team, we both bring different elements into the lingerie business and this is what I believe will make us successful (In Jesus name).

We will continue to review bra collections from big names to little names, and give our honest opinions.

Spring 2011: these are a few of my favourite things...

Emanuel Ungaro

Vanessa Bruno

 Jean Paul Gaultier

Rochas

Roberto Cavalli

 D&G

Alexander McQueen Spring 2011




BEAUTIFUL! Sarah Burton has done a fantastic job in taking the reigns after Alexander's unfortunate death. She has managed to keep the brand true to itself after all she worked with  McQueen for 15 years so its no surprise that she knew what direction to take and how to deliver!

Style.com describes the collection as a "Earth-Mother-ly spirit" and like all McQueen designs there is a  fantasy/fairy-tale feel and amongst the deconstructed tailoring and feathers, the four outfits  that I chose above are my favourite. I just love the bra bodices and the immense attention to detail is mind blowing.

Long live McQueen.

Scarlett is her name...

The Agent Provocateur bustier is a perfect contrast against her pearly white skin and fits her curves like a glove.
