From Jennifer Lopez to Amanda Holden, we put their respective bra lines to the test to see who comes out on top.
A LOT OF FAMOUS PEOPLE are making a lot of money by selling their private parts.
J. Lo is the most recent celebrity to land a lingerie contract, modeling lacy, brightly colored undergarments for Intimissimi.

Even though the underwear looks amazing on her, how does it perform in actual use?
Here, 22-year-old Londoner and model Maia Andrews gives her honest review of some of the latest celebrity fashions with a rating out of five.

According to MAIA, “I really like the cut of these briefs, they are so comfortable, and surprisingly soft.
Also, the color and design are great, and the straps feel very secure.
That one seemed the priciest of the ones I tried, but it was also my favorite. I was taken aback to learn it was from the J-Lo collection.
She has done an excellent job with the design, in my opinion. For a special event, I would definitely purchase these.
JD WILLIAMS (TV host Davina McCall) 4/5

‘I thought the bra’s long line shape and attention to detail were very attractive,’ says MAIA. It provides excellent support and, with an appropriate blazer, can be worn as outerwear.
Feels great, but I’m not a fan of the extra coverage provided by the knickers when worn alone. I’m not shocked to find out that Davina designed this collection; it has that sporty vibe that’s so typical of her.
ANN SUMMERS (Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri) 4/5

MAIA explains, “I thought the band around the middle of this bodysuit would be especially flattering because of how it accentuated my curves.
The colour was beautiful.
“In addition, I appreciated that it is not a formless bodysuit but rather a fitted, high-waisted one. Additionally, it’s more luxurious due to the attention to detail at the back.
However, it is extremely unflattering. It was too big in the waist area, which made it look terrible on me. Not flattering on my figure.
Model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley receives a perfect 5/5 from MARKS & SPENCER.

The lightweight feel of the knickers is what sold this set for me,” says MAIA.
The mesh inserts are super comfortable and invisible when worn under clothing.
The straps are soft and comfortable, and the satin details are a nice touch. They have a luxurious smoothness and look great, too.
My best guess is that Rosie made these because she’s a seasoned pro and because M&S makes great underwear. Excellent value for the money.”

“I love the front fastening on this bra because it makes getting dressed in the morning so much easier,” says MAIA.
Again, the long line is very flattering, and I really like how the knickers are cut like boy shorts but are still very seductive.
Although the color isn’t my favorite, I really like the style.
“The only drawback is that the straps are a bit more awkward to style because they are so thick,” the reviewer explains.
VICTORIA’S SECRET (Model Abbey Clancy) 3/5

I really appreciate how soft the fabric is,” says MAIA about this set.
However, I do not like the bra because it has too much padding. I already have a 32DD bust, so there’s no need to give me any more encouragement. However, the high leg cut of the thong is very attractive to me, and the thong’s soft fabric made for a very pleasant wearing experience.
A person who prefers extra cushioning may have been responsible for its design, as that is what I assumed. Gorgeous style, but too much padding for my taste.
SAVAGE X FENTY (Singer Rihanna) 4/5

According to MAIA, “the V shape cutout of the thong on this set is really lovely, and different. The longer cut and boning of the bra caught my eye on the hanger, but alas, it was so unsupportive that I had to put it back.
As opposed to the usual one size fits all approach, these come in three different cup sizes: small, medium, and large.
While the medium was too big, the small was too tight around the wires when I tried it on. I couldn’t say that I was a huge fan.
