Halle Berry launches lingerie line at Target Oct. 27

Celebrity Underthings: Halle Berry is launching a new lingerie collection, Scandale Paris, at select Target stores and online at Target.com on Oct. 27.

Founded in 1932, Scandale was rediscovered by Berry, who partnered with Lingerie manufacturer Erik Ryd, owner of Hop Lun, to introduce the brand globally. 

“I fell in love with Scandale while I was in Paris, because the brand reminded me of the city itself – beautiful and inspiring,” Berry said in a news release. “I am excited for the U.S. debut to be at Target and to launch the brand globally in 2015. I look forward to giving more women the chance to enjoy what European women have come to love for more than eight decades.”

The first collection of Scandale Paris will feature 10 items including bras for $16 and $18, and panties for $7.
