Fun is the name of the game according to Richie Rich of Heatherette and Fashion Uncensored Uncut agrees with him.  Lil Mama opened the extravaganza which featured American nostalgia with a raunchy twist.  Not to be outdone on the catwalk, 2 (X)ist  underwear for the guys featured some of the best bodies in the business.  Gottex swimwear was equally delicious for the girls while Nautica men offered it all for the beach lovers set.

Supermodels are made not born. Get an eyeful of new contenders featured in the swimsuit competition for the Model Mania international contest in Guangzhou, China, with an exclusive opening performance by the French acrobatic group, Farfadais.

The men of Buckler for Spring were a sight to behold. Handsome faces were covered with warlike masks, netting and even gas masks – an overall eerie effect.

Make an evening of it. From Times Square the annual National Underwear Day event has gained momentum and attention with models and fashions to match. Don’t miss – DKNY / Calvin Klein/2xist and Diesel to name a few. The great looking men are almost completed revealed in the sexiest of jock straps and the women in thongs make up the best of the event.

The 2008 annual Cila Lingerie Awards is the best opportunity to get your fill of every look in the business. This annual show features the best of the best and, without a doubt, is the most lingerie anywhere on any stage at any one time. Not to be outdone, across town, on the same day, the Lingerie Americas event also takes place. It may be briefer, but perhaps that term is applicable in more than one way. Plus more Miami swimwear 2009…don’t miss it!

In this issue of Fashion Uncensored Uncut, Diesel fuels up the catwalk with a play by play of clean cut yet sexy sports-inspired swimwear.
