We love the idea of making a statement with your intimates, and this Javier Vallhonrat editorial really does just that. This somewhat unlikely assortment of dresses, lingerie and chunky heels conjures up an urban showgirl theme. The sparkly eye make-up and the sequin accessories really help set the tone, and that Lascivious bodysuit was perfectly placed for this shoot. Plus, the more we see them, the more we are liking those Miu Miu print heels...
The photos are supposed to be reminiscent of the Vargas pin-up girls, but it almost looks more like a gritty (and glam) expose of a Moulin Rouge dancer. Perhaps this is what the Vargas girls would look like if they were painted in 2010...
