I think the topic is quite unusual for lingerie blog but at the same time it has every right to be included here. The Lingerie Footbal League is a female American indoor football league. What is extraordinary here it is female players who appear on the field in… lingerie. It is a good question what attracts man to such kind of football - the game itself or beautiful women in sorts and sexy lingerie.

It all began from Lingerie Bowl, a well-known TV show, which draws millions of viewers in more than 85 countries all over the world. It dates back to the year 2004. Since then Kingerie Football League’s popularity has been constantly growing. For several year Lingerie Football was a part of the Super Bowl TV show. The first two teams that took part in the League were the Euphoria and the Dream.

Each team has its own lingerie style. As a rule their so called outfit comprises of a comfortable bra and panties designed specially for active sport usage. A bra can be trimmed with a lace or ruche of a different color. The same details are usually made on panties as well. Most teams add a garter and some additional adornment on the neck or arms. By the way, the colors of their uniforms are based on their home National Football League team color. However, in addition to such smart suit players have to wear special uniform that consists of knee pads, shoulder pads, elbow pads and helmets. But I do not think that all these pads worsen girls’ looks.

Talking about the game, it has the same main elements, rules and instructions as any other football game has. They have their own cheerleaders and official home arena. LFL is a mixture of sports and beauty, a good sport option for sexy and sporty girls.

In less than a month bikini will be celebrating its 63rd birthday. On July 5, 1946 it was presented to public on the demonstration of a new summer collection from Christian Dior. Dancers from Moulin Rouge were invited to demonstrate bikini because none of the models agreed to step onto the podium in such an undisguised outfit. There are rumors that Micheline Bernardini, who demonstrated bikini, received over 50,000 proposals afterwards.

Bikini’s arrival was like an explosion of a nuclear bomb (it actually was named after Bikini atoll where the USA tried the first nuclear bomb four days earlier). Catholic Church in Spain, Portugal and Italy prohibited wearing bikini in public. In America certain social organizations objected to Hollywood using bikini in the movies. Nevertheless bikini gained its popularity with time: after the WWII it became a sign of freedom for many women and Hollywood also did its bit.

• The increased sales impact of bikini happened in 1957 when the movie ‘So Woman Was Created’ came on the screens of the cinemas with Brigitte Bardot in bikini set.
• In 1960 America was singing the ‘Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini’ song that was leading the song charts for a long time
• In 1962 James Bond’s girlfriend stepped out of the water wearing white bikini – and this scene was named the sexiest scene in the history of the cinema.
• In 1964 the first issue of ‘Sports Illustrated’ magazine with a girl wearing bikini on its cover was printed.
• In 1966 the movie ‘A Million Years B.C.’ came out, where Rachel Welsh was starring in bikini made of animal skin.

Since that time nothing could stop the spreading popularity of bikini and today we enjoy a great variety of models, colors and material for bikini. Bikini is used not for going to the beach only; it is an item of lingerie also. From simple delicate designs to exotic banana skin models or bikinis made of bubble wrap – anything that your imagination can tell you.
