Male fans, particularly Star Wars fans, will definitely be happy to see former Britain’s Next Top Model presenter Lisa Snowdon showcasing bridal lingerie and other sexy underwear as she fronts the latest campaign for retail giant Marks and Spencer.

In one of the photographs, Snowdon has her best Princess Leia impression where she wore a gold-sequined bra and knickers, revealing a certain amount of panache. Unfortunately, Jabba the Hutt couldn’t make the shoot.

The range of bras and underwear which the presenter was wearing during the shoot are marked as being very affordable, with prices starting at £8. Part of the sales proceeds will go to the Breakthrough Breast Cancer organization.

Snowdon is known for being an active support of charities aiding women with breast cancer, having revealed in the past that her grandmother and aunt were diagnosed with the aforementioned disease.

Snowdon has been constantly included in FHM’s list of 100 sexiest women in the world and with her latest gig, she’s still going to make the list this year and perhaps feature on the bedroom walls of a few more Star Wars fans.

One of the biggest surprises at the Fashion Week in New York is the presence of singer Jessica Simpson at the “Project Runway” fashion show. It was then found out that she’s not merely a guest viewer at the event but rather a surprise guest judge at the event.

At the “Project Runway” fashion show, ten hopefuls displayed their collections and these will be judged based on the criteria set by the show producers. Though this will only be the news that can be shared to the public, Simpson was seen sitting next to show’s permanent judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia.

The 30-year old artist wore a Michael Kors minidress during the occasion and analysts reported that her curves were not seen on the dress thus giving her an even plumper appearance.

The actress recently launched her Show Me Your Blues Jeans collection, but also has connections in the fashion world through her lingerie collection featuring a wide variety of bras.
