We are really not sure about the trend for female superstars to sing and dance in their pants and become obsessed with booty- their own and other peoples. We haven’t seen any men dancing in their pants, thank god. Although Justin Bieber did strip off at Fashion Rocks, and get booed for it. Jennifer Lopez and Iggy Azalea have teamed up for this Booty video. What do you think: female empowerment, a celebration of the female form or just time to put some clothes on? Comment below.
The iconic high-cut ‘90s swimsuit makes a splash on eBay as Miley Cyrus and Cameron Diaz champion the one piece this summer
The infamous high-waisted Baywatch style bathing suit is back with a vengeance this season, as British sun seekers turn up the heat and embrace the dare-to-bare trend of the ‘90s.
In the last month alone, eBay, one of the world’s largest marketplaces, has seen a huge surge in sales of the high-cut poolside apparel by 329%*.
Leading the charge for the ‘90s revival is wild child Miley Cyrus, who pioneered a new slim line silhouette when undergoing her radical transformation from Disney ‘girl next door’ to pop rebel. Consistently flaunting an eye-catching hip-high suit, Miley wore on her Bangerz Tour creations by Marc Jacobs, Roberto Cavalli and The Blonds, reigniting a thirst for lycra in a variety of vibrant shades and prints.
New on the scene, Aussie rapper Iggy Azalea has also been donning glamorous swimsuits by American designers Marco Marco and Betsey Johnson in the past few months. Not for the fainthearted, Iggy has been reinventing the meaning of Riviera chic, confirming that tan lines are trophies and hipbones are the ‘new cleavage’ for 2014.
By contrast, America’s sweetheart Cameron Diaz showcased a sleek and sophisticated interpretation of the trend, appearing on the cover of this month’s Esquire magazine. Cameron exuded elegance in a jaw-dropping LBS (Little Black Swimsuit), perfectly accessorised with a pair of gold pumps. For those that are inspired by Ms Diaz’s alluring one-shoulder black swimsuit, eBay.co.uk currently lists 850** options to choose from.
The one piece has also proven popular amongst the most fierce and fearless females too. Both Jennifer Lopez and Beyoncé have recently made onstage appearances in garments that caress every curve in an array of colours and cuts, proving that all a diva really needs is a showstopping one piece.
