If the result of this lingerie design contest is half what I have witnessed with the garments I just got my hands on from Simply Yours then we all are in for a treat. By the way I will review the items in a later post. But a quick recap Simply Yours, and Gok Wan are teaming up to give a new designer a chance design a two-piece plus-size lingerie set.
Plus size lingerie specialist Simply Yours has launched a new design competition aimed at fashion students and lingerie lovers.
The company is inviting aspiring fashion designers and anyone with an interest in design to create a two piece lingerie set that will appeal to the curvy, confident, stylish women who buy from the Simply Yours collection.
The winning bra and brief design will feature in the Simply Yours Spring/Summer underwear collection for 2011 and will be available from the website www.simplyyours.co.uk and from the Simply Yours catalogue.
And as well as seeing their design brought to life, the winner will also be involved in the development of the product working with expert designers and lingerie buyers from the Simply Yours team from the materials sourcing stage right through to the final product photoshoot.
The successful design will sit alongside underwear from famous names such as Freya, Panache, Pour Moi and Wonderbra, as well as a stylish control wear collection designed exclusively for Simply Yours by Gok Wan.
The competition is called From Brief to Bra and is open to fashion students, experienced designers and fashionistas alike.
Full details, including terms and conditions, are available at www.facebook.com/FromBriefToBra, a Facebook page dedicated to the lingerie design competition. Alternatively entrants can view details at www.simplyyours.co.uk
The Simply Yours collection covers the entire spectrum of plus size shapewear, including bras, corsets, slips and knickers, swimwear and nightwear. Sizes range from 30-50 with cups A-JJ and up to 56 and K and L in selected sizes which is a factor entrants to the competition will need to bear in mind.
The collection is designed make women feel confident in the underwear they are wearing, whether they are at home, at work or out partying.
