Padma Lakshmi Introduces Her New Lingerie Line in Collaboration with Bare Necessities
The 20-piece collection showcases a variety of luxurious textures, intricate patterns, and a fusion of global influences that Padma has collected during her travels. From bold bras and chic swimsuits to elegant loungewear and trendy cover-ups, each piece embodies her adventures and wisdom from a lifetime of exploring the globe. The collection aims to empower you to feel self-assured and, above all, at ease. Unlike the typical shapewear many women are accustomed to.
“I despise shapewear not just because of its discomfort, but because it compresses and flattens everything. Yes, I desire a defined waist, but I don’t want assistance in suppressing my natural curves. I’m Asian, I have worked diligently at the gym to sculpt my behind, and I don’t want anyone to diminish its fullness.”
She elaborates, “I want to exude beauty. I want to radiate sophistication, but I refuse to endure suffering for it. There were countless years and decades of my life where I did just that, but no more, I won’t.”
In addition to prioritizing comfort above all else, she also shares insights into her fitness regimen. While fitness remains important to her, she rejects strict diets as they have always left her feeling miserable.
“My mental well-being is more significant than my physical appearance. I can cover up and disguise my physique, but I cannot conceal a negative attitude.”
