A North-born businesswoman has bagged a brunette bombshell to become the face of her latest lingerie collection.
Celebrity Big Brother star Georgia Salpa has been stripping off and revealed her curves for Alexis Smith’s online lingerie company.
In a number of stylish snaps, the glamour model, who was ranked the sexiest woman in Ireland, revealed the curves that made her famous.
The Greek-born Irish model has replaced TOWIE star Jessica Wright as the face of the brand, which specialises in lingerie designs for petite women with D+ bra size.
And Alexis, who was born in Jesmond, Newcastle, and raised in Whitley Bay, North Tyneside, was over the moon to have the model onboard.
Alexis, 29, who runs Alexis Smith lingerie company, said: “Georgia’s a very, very nice girl, she’s classy, sophisticated and polite and I thought she would really suit the collection.
“Obviously, it would be great to have someone like Cheryl Cole but, I’m only a small business.
“But Georgia is great. She’s isn’t in the limelight and she was a model by trade before she was on reality TV.
“She’s got an incredible figure and a natural bust and she looks great in the lingerie. It’s exciting working with her.”
Georgia shot to fame after a stint on Celebrity Big Brother where she was the third housemate evicted.
As well modelling Georgia has made other several TV appearances on shows such as Celebrity Salon and Catwalk to Kilimanjaro.
Alexis, who studied fashion, photography, media and business and Tynemouth College before studying media at Sunderland University, said: “I always knew I wanted to work for myself but, since leaving uni, I didn’t know what to do.
“I was working part-time in a duty free shop at Newcastle Airport when I remember getting annoyed about how difficult it was for my to find attractive bras that would fit.
“I’m a 32F and I’ve always had trouble finding nice bras.
“I started to think about it and I thought there must be other people out there that are like me and have the same problem.
“I started by getting a few samples made. It was a very long process initially because I didn’t have any experience.
“I worked with a local lady in Newcastle and then in a factory in Nottingham.
“It was about two years until I started thinking about making a business out of it. I got some help of RMP in Gosforth and I started a website and it was a domino effect from there.
“I moved to London and got involved with a PR firm and signed Jessica Wright. It was a whirlwind after that. We went from a small business to getting big contracts.”
