Miranda Kerr Is New Face Of Wonderbra
Miranda Kerr has parlayed her Victoria’s Secret Angel wings into another high-profile lingerie gig.
The Aussie supermodel is the new face (and body) of Wonderbra.
She parted ways with Victoria’s Secret last year, citing commitments to her son Flynn and the high workload of the Angel promotional cycle.
“It’s three months at the bare minimum,” she told the press.
And now she’s been snapped up by Wonderbra, whose new campaign just launched.
The new look? Less feathers, more 70s stripped-back. The campaign has a retro feel, with leopard print, chunky jewellery and sleek fabrics.
Kerr is also the face of H&M and Reebok, so we think she’ll cope without her angel wings.
What do you think of the latest Wonderbra campaign?

Jean Paul Gaultier Exhibition Comes To Australia
The National Gallery of Victoria will hosting a special Jean-Paul Gaultier retrospective from 17 October this year – and it’s shaping up to be incredible.
It’s called “The Fashion World Of Jean Paul Gaultier: From The Sidewalk To The Catwalk”, and hype is building fast.
The Gaultier look has influenced fashion for decades, from Madonna’s cone brassiere to modern haute couture, and the show will feature 140 of his most jaw-dropping garments.
The show’s been on tour all around the world, from New York to London, but the Australian show has a few special treats in store.
Gaultier is a longtime friend of Kylie Minogue, who released a statement saying he was “a dear friend and an icon of design”, and some of her show costumes will feature – as will Gaultier creations for Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett and Gemma Ward. They’re his ‘muses’, and will have a space all their own.
And it’s not just mannequins standing in a room with gorgeous clothes.
Gaultier’s showcase also includes 32 custom-made audio-visual displays with commentary from some of his most famous celeb clients.
There will be plenty of Gaultier’s trademark corsetry-inspired work, worn by clients like Dita Von Teese, as well as tattoo prints, punk influences and over-the-top couture flourishes.
Every bit of the exhibition, from the poses to the mannequins’ hairstyles, has been curated by experts. We think it’ll be a day to remember.
Will you be stepping into Gaultier’s world at the national Gallery of Victoria in October?
