Elle Macpherson is adding to her celebrated Intimates lingerie collection with a new pretty but practical range of basics.

Launching this week, the Bare & Bold range features stylish, bright t-shirt bras and briefs that come with either a lace trim or a simple smooth style, for those who like their basics basic. The range is available in the usual nude, black and white, but also delicious candy colours such as yellow, baby blue and coral pink.

The t-shirt bras use smooth, slinky knit fabric over expertly-cut moulded cups, providing the ultimate shape and support. Choose from strapless, plunge cup, push-up and underwire styles and three types of briefs, all of which are designed to ensure that you don’t suffer from the dreaded VPL.

The collection arrives in stores this week, priced at £18 for briefs and £35 for bras. For stockist information visit ellemacphersonintimates.com or call 020-7478 0280.
