A corset is an absolute necessity for a pin-up girl, especially a style that laces up the back. We love how the boning in this Classic Corset from Agent Provocateur gives the ultimate hourglass shape.

In most full-body photographs, you'll notice Bettie wore thigh highs with back seams almost exclusively. You won't want to skip out on this sexy, vintage look, so go for one of our favorite pairs a la Philippe Matignon.

We love this seductive twist on the classic opera glove - what better way to grasp a whip than with leather running from the fingertips to up above the elbows? This stunning pair from Aspinal of London is made with the finest Nappa leather.

Bettie Page knew how to seduce with a look, but even she liked to pick up an S&M toy in her photographs every once in awhile. Whether your poison is whips, chains or handcuffs, something like this Silver Tip Riding Crop by Kiki de Montparnasse will add a playful touch to your look.

A pin-up girl without red lipstick is like a martini without the olives, and we can't have none of that. Choose a shade that complements your skin tone best, but may we suggest MAC Lipstick in Lady Bug for a classic feel.

How long have you been working as an agent? How did you get started in the industry?
I have been working at Women for the past five years. The opportunity presented itself when I was inbetween jobs, in search of a new career path. A good friend of mine was an agent at Women and invited me in to meet the team and discuss a possible opening. The core philosophies of the agency and its overall history really drove me to want to learn more about the biz. I did as much research as possible beforehand, and the rest is history. All went well, and I’ve been here ever since.

Women Management has one of the most impressive model client lists in the business, it must be dynamic to work with these girls. Do you have a favorite aspect of your job, something you love doing time and again?
It is a complete honor to be a part of the Women team and work with some of the most talented models and agents in industry. I must say, I am continuously inspired by my job and the chance to build a career that is successful and fulfilling. The possibilities are endless and the paths are all different. But with the right team and support, anything and everything is possible. We have such a strong core at Women, it makes the job that much more amazing.

Is there a specific campaign you worked on that particularly stands out in your mind as a favorite?
The Tom Ford campaign is memorable and confirmation that he is a legend and one of my favorite designers. Second to that has to be booking Daria Strokous in the film Contagion.

Can you talk about any exciting projects you have coming up with your clients at Women?
We are in the middle of campaign season, so I can’t reveal too much. You’ll just have to wait and see….

1. Nude is a no-show. White undergarments do not disappear under white garments, so get the idea out of your head. Unless you’re going for the whole “look at my underwear” thing and are positive you can pull it off, wear nude undergarments when you see color is showing through your clothes. Chantelle Icone T-Shirt Bra in Skin combines comfort, style and function. As for underwear, Commando Low-Rise Girl Shorts in True Nude and Hanky Panky Lace Thong in Nude are both excellent options.

2. If show-through is your thing, keep it one color. The sheer trend is big, especially when letting your undergarments show through a dress. I am all about it and ready to partake come summer, but don’t channel the rainbow. Stick with one color, or block of colors, for both your bra and panties. The VPL Insertion Bra and matching VPL Convexity Undi are meant to be shown and great if you’re looking for a bright spring statement. Pair this Agent Provocateur Melody Padded Underwire Bra with the Eberjey Pima Goddess Low-Rider Bikini for a super sexy nighttime look.

3. Smooth with a slip. Gone are the days when women wore slips under everything, which isn’t a bad thing per se. But remember, slips smooth-out lumps and bumps under clingy fabrics and body-conscious designs. With a plethora of adorable and sexy slips on the market today, there is no excuse to look your best in the teeniest spring dress. For full-body options, the Agent Provocateur Zelma Satin Contour Dress will give you show-stopping curves while the Organic by John Patrick Bias Slip is perfect for the thinnest sundresses. If a half slip is more your style, the Carine Gilson Egérie Silk-Satin Half Slip is so gorgeous, you’ll never want to go without.

4. Say no to visible panty lines. This is simplest, yet most readily broken rule. If you’re wearing tight pants, WEAR A THONG. There is nothing grosser than seeing panty lines bulging out from a fitted dress or pair of pants. All lovely and comfortable, these four thongs are safe to try: Elle Macpherson Intimates Obsidian Eleanor Stretch-Silk Thong, Cosabella Soire Low-Rise Thong, La Perla Iconic Surpiqué Satin Thong and Topshop White Deep Lace Thong.

5. Conceal your bra straps. There’s nothing wrong with your bra casually peeking out from a weekday tank top, but for the love of God, don’t let it show when you’re all dolled-up and fancy. There are plenty of comfortable options out there that convert into many different styles, so all you need is one or two to start. As far as convertible options go, Donna Karan Luxe Solutions Halter Bra, Natori Body Options Convertible Bra and Huit Cupcake Bandeau Bra are some of the best. If a plain ‘ole strapless is what you’re looking for, the Calvin Klein Ivory Customized Lift Strapless Bra and Simone Perele Velia Plunge Strapless Bra are both great options.

What are your secrets for looking great underneath your spring wardrobe?

Photographed by Guy Aroch and styled by Karen Clarkson, Lowe looks wide-eyed and lovely on the March 2011 cover. Below are some highlights from her ASOS interview:

On growing up as the daughter of Pearl Lowe: “I was a kid, so my childhood wasn’t mental to me. You don’t question it, that was just what my life was like. But maybe it means that with the craziness [of modeling], I can always find the calm in the storm.”

On her desire to see curvier models in print: My dream is to see a lot more female shapes in ad campaigns when I look through magazines…my friend was working with Crystal Renn and said she thinks she’s only got a 38-inch hip. Karl Lagerfeld said he was going to embrace her womanly shape and then he just put her face on the ad campaign. Girls are starting to have tits in pictures, but I think it still needs to be about the curve… Real women have hips and an arse, yet loads of models in shows seem to have neither.”

On her style: “Most of my wardrobe is taken up by white floaty or long floral dresses. I like to dress like a fairy and a doll quite a lot, but I do like wearing black too. I don’t think I have a particular style, I think I go for a lot of different things.”

Kylie Minogue’s steamy ad for lingerie line Agent Provocateur has been voted the best cinema commercial of all time.

The ad, which features our pop princess writhing on a mechanical rodeo bull in sexy underwear, caused a massive stir when it was released in 2001.

It came out on top in a poll by Brit firm Digital Cinema Media.

Agent Provocateur is on a mission to take you to the dark side, the lingerie company has just released promos for their new campaign staring Peaches Geldof. The Season of the Witch will undoubtedly be one of the company’s most sexually controversial ad push, featuring torture, albinos, witchcraft, and just a little bit of devil worship.

Hell nothing gets me harder than a little Satan worship, so I’m sure this will be one for the books.

Daisy Lowe and Peaches Geldof will play powerful temptresses, seducing their virginal victims in the newest Agent Provacateur ad campaign. There’s a little preview online now in which the indie favorites play with fruit, chickens and well, virgins. Check it out.

WHY MAGGIE WHY?

You are one on my short lists of celebrities who don’t make me gag! You aren’t typical and that’s what I, and others, like about you.

Subversive art students, like myself, fell a little bit in love with you after you made Secretary.

You were one of the only pregnant celebs who didn’t feel the need to do a Demi-inspired nude pregnant layout. And on behalf of the public, ‘We thank you’. Instead you posed in those beautiful Agent Provocateur ads.

But what is this?

This should be a lesson to everyone silk-satin will give you paunch, no matter how much you weigh, it would even give Nicole Richie paunch.

It’s not even that the black jumpsuit is bad, all you had to do was belt it!

And you wonder why you are often placed on the worst dressed lists….

There are certain days when I completely and absolutely remember why I love fashion. It’s not the days when I get to sit front row at NY Fashion Week, or the days that packages arrive from designers trying to woo me with freebies (athough those days are nice. please send all packages and invites to the address listed at the bottom of this page. thank you). It’s all about the days when campaigns like Kate Moss’s for Agent Provocateur end up in my mailbox and for a few fleeting moments I realize that I am in a field where people will randomly ask me to examine the half-nude (sometimes fully nude) body of a supermodel.

Kate Moss shines in these ad shots for her recent campaign with Agent Provocateur. Her beauty is undeniable and the looks are a major step up for the lingerie brand, who famously dumped Kate for the less than spectacular Maggie Gyllenhall. Thank god Kate is back, cause these shots remind us why we love the aging, nearly over-the-hill model. It’s her drop dead gorgeous appeal and limitless sexual energy. Her ability to own each shot and remind you that she has what you want. Her pouty lips and sweet sounding British accent. Her in with nearly every dealer in London, NY, LA and Milan. Her …

Now, I’m going to close my computer and stop talking about Kate Moss, Rebecca looks like she’s ready to kick my ass if I say anything else about Ms.Moss … whose supple breast and soft skin speaks to me in these ads … what’s that Kate?  You want me to kiss you?  I don’t know if I can? Maybe just one … little … Rebecca proceeds to beat me over the head with her Mac book. (I’ll most likely be in the hospital this weekend. See you next week indies. And enjoy more Moss photos after the jump. Ow, I think I forgot what yellow looks like. Is that even possible?)

Damn Kate. I’m sold. I need every single one in the collection for my significant other.

Age has no effect on Kate Moss’ sexiness in this commercial for Agent Provocateur. She spends most of the time in the video talking about some freaky dream while wearing the collection. It’s eerie, sexy and just a bit of camp for Moss fans everywhere.

So we all know that Kate Moss is notorious for her inability to make it down the aisle with any of her rocker boytoys.  But it seems that the model will finally get her day in white. No, she’s not taking it to the alter with her new Pete Doherty dopplegangler.  Agent Provocateur will be releasing a new series of bridal lingerie and they’ve tapped Kate for the campaign. According to WWD, “Nick Knight will shoot a series of six images for the campaign, which will “portray Moss as a bride who has a last-minute change of heart.” The first shots will appear on the company’s Web site and will be released to the press in May. A film of Moss shooting the campaign also will premier on Knight’s Web site, Showstudio.com, on May 3.”

Back in 2006, when the brand featured Kate in an internet film title “The Four Dreams of Miss X”, fans flooded Agent Provacateur’s website causing it to crash.   Hopefully this time around they have some backups.
