Born to wear it

If you always choose bold red lingerie over classic white designs it could be your date of birth that's to blame. According to lingerie brand Triumph, the stars have a lot to answer for when it's decision-making time in the lingerie department. It's a good job, then, that there's something in their range to suit the characteristics of each sign of the zodiac.

Here's a taster of the results: the Sagittarian woman is often a keen sportswoman. Her colour is purple. Her stone is lapis lazuli and her element is fire. Triumph's lingerie for Ms Sagittarius is Velvet Moods - definitely different in rich wine velvet.

The bra comes in sizes 32-38

A-C cups and costs (pounds) 20, while the matching G-string is (pounds) 8 and is available in sizes 10-18.
