Naomi Campbell Launches Limited Edition Lingerie Collection
Naomi Campbell has teamed up with Italian brand Yamamay for an exclusive, limited-edition collection of lingerie, which includes:
Bras, Panties, Slips and Camisoles priced
between $32 and $65.
The supermodel also stars in the
ads for the “IamNaomiCampbell” collection, which was shot by famed fashion
photographer Mario Testino.
According to WWD, the range will
boast “a nocturnal color palette, including black and purple, and enriched with
precious decors.” As of now, Campbell’s collection is available on Yamamay’s
website, which does not ship to the U.S.
Campbell’s entry into the
lingerie world seems overdue, as fashionista.com notes, other supermodels such
as Helena Christensen, Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum, Bar Rafaeli and Rosie
Huntington-Whiteley already have their own lines or have COLLABORATED with
established brands.
The “IamNaomiCampbell” collection
features lingerie sets with such fierce names as “Supervillain” and
“Magnificent.” Of course, as you admire Campbell’s flawless form in these ads,
it’s no wonder lingerie brands like Agent-Provocateur and La Perla have hired
her for campaigns.
Meanwhile, Campbell, who has been
at the top of her game for nearly 30 years, has also turned her hand to acting
– with roles in “Empire” and “American Horror Story: HOTEL
In a interview with The
Independent, Campbell revealed that she landed the role of Claudia partly
because of Anna Wintour – the infamous editor-in-chief of U.S. Vogue.
“She sat me next to [series
co-creator] Ryan [Murphy] at a dinner party, so I should really thank her,”
said Campbell who also plays Camilla Marks on “Empire.”
Murphy recalled that meeting with
Campbell during a CHAT
with Entertainment Weekly. “I was at a dinner
party, and I sat next to Naomi Campbell, and obviously I’ve always loved her,”
Murphy shared. “I said, ‘We’re writing this episode and do you wanna come on
the show and play something extreme?'”
“She was very excited about her
upcoming moments that she has that push the boundaries,” Murphy added. “So I
said, ‘Great.’ I offered it to her and she accepted. She’s very professional.
