Glitter, Unicorns All the Rage at International Lingerie Show

LAS VEGAS—The New International Lingerie Show returned once again to the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino for its fall installment. The three-day show—which kicked off Monday, Sept. 24—featured several lingerie and underwear companies on the show floor, as well as adult pleasure products distributor Entrenue. New to Entrenue is Altitude Products, which includes the Bella collection of CBD-infused skin care line. In addition to bath bombs and massage oils under the Bella name, the company also create Knob Polish masturbation cream, and the Felix & Ambrosia range. “Felix features sun care products infused with CBD oil,” explained a rep for Entrenue. “They have the Sunny Daze, which is a sunblock with SPF 30 and infused with eco-friendly glitter. And there is Burn Out, which is for aftercare from being in the sun, and has soothing and cooling aloe in it.” Felix & Ambrosia also offers Rainbow Unicorn Drops, which are CBD tinctures that can be ingested a few drops at a time for the nutritional benefits of CBD. Unicorns and glitter were a theme on the show floor this season, as Ellie Shoes showcased new shoes that feature pastel swirled unicorn horns as the heels. Some of the show styles boast fake fur with rainbow manes along the back, white suede and pastel glitter. Andrew Christian Inc. also got in on the unicorn game, with new packages of unicorn-themed underwear for men, but they can be enjoyed by women as well. The manufacturer is best known for making technologically advanced, custom woven men’s underwear. The company offers a wide range of sizes, as well as various styles, including low-cut, boxer briefs and thongs. Western Fashions stocked its booth with several trendy items, ranging from steampunk hats, goggles and more to Twinkle Glitter body glitter. A company spokesperson noted the glitter features bigger pieces that show up better on skin. “We sell the glitter glue too, which you just apply to the skin, and then pour on the glitter,” she said. “It’s good because it holds a thicker layer of the glitter so you get more shine. And when you’re done, it easily washes off with just soap and water.” Twinkle Glitter comes in several colors, and individual colors are available. Some bottles feature more than one color. Several companies exhibiting at the New ILS showcased styes designed specifically for plus-size bodies. Curvy Kate carries teddies, bra and panty sets and more to highlight women who have curves. Contemporary designs are paired with stretchy fabrics, and bra sizes for several styles run up to size K. Golyta specializes in lingerie and sleepwear in traditional as well as plus sizes. Glamory Hosiery showcased luxury hosiery in a wide range of sizes. The thigh-highs, pantyhose and more are from quality materials meant for all-day wear. Also showcasing hosiery was Kix’ies Thigh Highs. With everything from fishnets to traditional stockings, Kix’ies bands are designed with no-slip grips so they can be worn all day. In addition to the show floor, attendees to the New International Lingerie Show were treated to breakfast and lunch, as well as an opening night Meet and Greet at the Westgate Cabaret. The New ILS continues through Wednesday, Sept. 26. For more information, visit ILSShow.com.
