Made in Syria

In today's global lingerie news:

• Forget France, Italy and even China - chances are, you are unwittingly going about your business in underwear made in Syria, reports Time magazine. Who knew?
• And the subtle-as-a-brick award for Valentines advertising goes to Lovable lingerie, whose billboard features former Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins clad in a red lacy bra and chewing on a stuffed rhino. "Horny?" asks the billboard. Not really, since you ask. Anyway, you won't be seeing it at Auckland International Airport, reports stuff.co.nz.
• You're a lazy lot, aren't you? Our recent UK figleaves.com home page asked, "Are you a saint or a sinner?" and guess what? Yep, twice as many of you clicked on the "sinner" image (cheating with shapewear) as the "saint" (a sports bra for the gym).
