We love to follow the developments of Japanese lingerie brands as ersatz soft-core porn. The best are Ravijour and Peach John. After all, no lingerie brand that invents something that stops men from unhooking a bra if they are not the right guy for you has got to have a nice sense of humor. But we are sad to see that Ravijour has moved away from Japanese models! In the past, our jaws have dropped at the hot ladies modeling their latest lingerie, including Elli Rose, Mai Miyagi and Azusa Koizumi. But whereas Ravijour rival Peach John continues to be very "Japanese" in its ...

Bad news for Kojiharu fans. Peach John's "new muse" is no longer AKB48's Haruna Kojima but the model and tarento Saeko. We're not sure if Haruna's contract has completely finished or if this is just a temporary campaign, but Saeko has replaced her as the lingerie brand's lead model. Saeko is famous for being famous, and for having a famous husband. Her former husband, Yu Darvish, is one of the best known baseball players in Japan, though he clearly doesn't like to use contraception. He has subsequently announced he is getting married again -- this time to a female wrestler! ...

When out and around the city we love to take in the eye candy. After all, Tokyo is one heck of a candy store. Our favorite area is Omotesando/Aoyama for the chic ladies, and Shibuya for the sluttier girls. Don't miss places like Shimokitazawa or west Tokyo for the grungy students too. This has been happening throughout history. Where do we look? Well, of course the face and the hair, as well as her clothes and fashion. Most Japanese ladies don't have much in the way of tits and ass, though we will still definitely check out their assets. Sometimes there are ...

We've said it before and we'll say it again. Move over, Gravure idols. Move over, music idols like AKB48. The sexiest and sexiest-dressed ladies we encounter in daily life are the tantalizing posters we see on the Japanese lingerie shops. In particular, Peach John and Ravijour, kind of the Victoria's Secret of Japan, never fail to make our jaws drop. Now Ravijour has launched its 2015 spring collection and the results are eye-watering, as always... As always, models include the ravishing haafu Elli Rose, and Mai Miyagi and Azusa ...

Some would argue that Japanese girls have small enough chests already. Some would argue that that's a very good thing and makes them so cute (especially Japanese guys, it seems). Others would wish their breasts were larger than the B or C cup that's average. But surely few would think that Japanese girls need bras that make their breasts look even smaller. After all, there is already lingerie catering for girls with flatter chests who want to show off their cuteness. And yet, these types of bras exist. Wacoal's range of bust-shrinking bras is so popular that they even recently released ...

If you went out at Halloween in Tokyo you might have seen some very scantily clad ladies. Likewise, a trip to Akihabara often means the chance to see idols performing on the street with a lot on display. Flasher idol Asuka Sawamoto famously got herself arrested in 2008 when she did a series of performances in Akiba where she let hordes of men photograph her underwear. (She went on to a career in porn.) But what about just "risque" fashion. How far is this legal? A fashion website asked a lawyer about how far you go with see-through underwear in Japan. Exposing yourself in ...

AKB48's Haruna Kojima has shown us what she looks like when she wakes up in bed, in the bath, and gets dressed in the morning. For her latest ad for Japanese lingerie brand Peach John, the Akihabara idol is shown stripping down and taking alluring selfies. Kojiharu is the main marketing model for lingerie line Peach John and has frequently appeared in risque advertising stunts for the brand, including stripping off at a race track and doing some downright sizzling photo shoots. Peach John is encouraging women around Japan to copy Kojiharu by stripping off to their underwear and ...

We love internet surveys. They are so revealing because people feel free to be honest with the anonymity a screen provides. And so we have this fun survey conducted online by My Nabvi Woman in October. From the 243 results (all working women aged 22 to 34) we have been graced with a list of 11 things Japanese women want me to know about their breasts. 10 (tie). Small breasts + bras = cute (14.4%) Yes, as we know, lingerie has the ability to transform girls with slender bodies into sex goddesses, while girls with smaller chests are still very popular, especially with Japanese ...

Japanese sexy lingerie brand Ravijour has held its first solo strip show -- sorry, we mean fashion show. To look at the pictures, it's an easy mistake to make! Models include Elli Rose, Mayuko Arisue and Natsumi Yoshida strutted their stuff on October 8th and showed off their slinky bodies in Roppongi to celebrate 10 years of one of Japan's two main drop-dead-hot lingerie lines (the other is Peach John). I know we write about Japanese lingerie like Ravijour perhaps a bit too much on this blog, despite it being a bit too ordinary to qualify for "kinky". It's just ...

Bandai's Sailor Moon franchise has created a second set of its limited edition lingerie, with help from Japanese sexy lingerie maker Peach John. The previous sets were all almost impossible to get your hands on, selling out very quickly. This new series promises to be just as popular, not least because of the way it is being marketed. Peach John knows all about picking the right sexy models with the right bodies. Last time they had the likes of Rei Yasui looking very nice indeed in the lingerie. This time round they have Peach John favorite, AKB48's Haruna Kojima, dressed up like ...
