O leg Cassini may be 90 years old, but he still has more luck with
the ladies than most guys that are 30-50% younger. Back in the day
he was dating Hollywood bombshells like Gene Tierney and Grace
Kelly, and he's currently going strong with a beautiful, anonymous
32-year-old. In a wonderfully informative, in-depth interview in
WWD last Friday, the still dapper designer shared some of his
seduction screts. "I think I smell good," Cassini said. "I happen
to have very good skin and I'm very clean. My own cologne is very
good." While we agree that a pleasant body odor is important
(especially if you're 90 years old) we're especially impressed by
this astute conclusion: "My feeling is that, with the thought
toward sex, you cannot conquer a woman. She decides and all the
rest is propaganda. If a woman looks at you, in three or four
seconds, the basics are there and she can say I could or I could
not." If all men took that to heart, the world would be a much
better place.

  Wear Your Underwear Out!: Araks' Latest
Araks Yeramyan is one young lady who enthusiastically encourages girls to flash their knickers at will.   And at her recent presentation in New York , it was plain to see that any girl worth her salt should be flaunting her undies anytime day or night: doing the laundry, making supper, walking the dog, on a bike ride, or during cocktail hour.
The models happily pranced down the runway watering flowers, chatting on the telephone, preparing a barbecue, even getting married -- all in their skimpies and all looking great.
"The pieces are designed to be worn out as much as in," Yeramyan explained to FWD while standing under a clothesline laden with bras and panties, glass of champagne in one hand, mini dachshund in the other.
Launched in 2000, the high quality cottons are simple and pretty, the only detailing being a lace trim or contrasting piping here and there, and all bear a girl's name. The chemises, Jayne and Melanie, could as easily be worn for a hot night out or for a quiet pampering night in the bathroom. The camisoles, Delfine and Lola, are as perfect with jeans as with G-strings, and the panties -- Simone, Erin and Josephine among others -- well, a girl can always find occasions to show off beautiful bottoms.
Sarah Jessica Parker, Meg Ryan, Kirsten Dunst, Julia Roberts, Amanda Peet, and Cindy Crawford are a few of the ladies who have fallen for Araks and chosen to brandish their intimates.
The shades of the latest autumn 2003 line -- oyster, paprika, praline and mulberry -- are rich and sexy, and whether you're a modest type who lounges at the homestead in a tank and pants, or an extravagant glam girl who'll throw on some boy short hipsters and a cami with her heels for a night out dancing, Araks has a little something for you. 
Araks is available at Fred Segal and La Petite Coquette.

Nanotechnology in Fabrics of tomorrow, 
Natural fibre production was perfected in the Industrial Age (1775-1850). Synthetic fibre production fuelled developments in the textile industry during the Chemical Age (1870-1980). Now, barely a decade into the Information Age, some equally momentous shifts look to be on the horizon.  Click here for the whole story.

 Hello,
   Your site was recommended to me from a friend in the hopes that you will be able to help me. I am in the process of opening a club wear/bikini clothing store in Arizona and one of the brands I would like to carry is Sexy Brazil. I have been hunting for them left and right and no one will seem to help me. Do you have any information on how I can get in contact with this company. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Klarissa  Laurenmedia@aol.com

  Republicans were angered last year when it was learned that NICHD ( National Institute of Child Health and Human Development)  had spent nearly $150,000 to fund a Northwestern University study that paid women as much as $75 to watch pornographic videos to determine "what types of audiovisual erotica women find sexually arousing."   That NIH-approved project was called "disgusting" by a congressman who said the agency rejected his request three years earlier to study whether the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine was associated with autism.  "The NIH couldn't find the money to look into this relationship between kids with regressive autism and the mandatory MMR vaccine, but they can pay people $150,000 to watch pornography," Rep. Dave Weldon, Florida Republican, said in December.   The NIH annual budget of $27 billion has more than doubled in the past five years. 
Federal sex research turns "Uncle Sam into a taxpayer-funded Peeping Tom," Mr. Knight said. "Wouldn't you love to ask James Madison if this was the sort of expenditure he envisioned when drafting the Constitution?" 
 
 
                            First Class? 
A beautiful young blonde woman boards a plane to New York with a ticket for the coach section. She looks at the seats in coach and then looks into the forward cabin at the first class seats. Seeing that the first class seats appear to be much larger and more comfortable, she moves forward to the last empty one. The flight attendant checks her ticket and tells the woman that her seat is in coach. 
The blonde replies, ''I'm young, blonde and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way to New York.'' 
Flustered, the flight attendant goes to the cockpit and informs the captain of the blonde problem. The captain goes back and tells the woman that her assigned seat is in coach. 
Again, the blonde replies, ''I'm young, blonde and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way to New York.'' 
The captain doesn't want to cause a commotion, and so returns to the cockpit to discuss the blonde with the co-pilot. The co-pilot says that he has a blonde girlfriend, and that he can take care of the problem. He then goes back and briefly whispers something into the blonde's ear. 
She immediately gets up, says, ''Thank you so much.'' hugs the co-pilot, and rushes back to her seat in the coach section. The pilot and flight attendant, who were watching with rapt attention, together ask the co-pilot what he had said to the woman. 
He replies, ''I just told her that the first class section isn't going to New York.''
