Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is becoming a master of all trades – not only is she a super successful model and actress; she’s now trying her hand at design too. But unlike many other models/actresses-turned-designers, she’s decided to start with lingerie, teaming up with British high street favourite Marks Spencer – for whom she is the face of their Autograph collection – to create her debut range.
‘Rosie for Autograph’ will hit selected stores on August 30, but has given us a sneak preview of the pieces on offer in a short video in which she is seen shooting the campaign and talking about the designs.

“I love everything about lingerie, I’ve always had a thing for it. It’s completely feminine, it’s something for women, it’s ours, it’s our little secret,” she says. “I think that we’ve struck a really great balance between it being young and modern whilst still being classic and sexy but it’s feminine, and I hope people enjoy it in that way.”
She may have given us the smallest of glimpses in the
latest issue of
Elle
, but now we know considerably more. There are lots of pastels, delicate nude lace and a floral silk robe, all of which fit into the ‘vintage-inspired’ look she was going for, plus there’s a saucy red teddy and suspenders and stockings too.
“I’ve wanted to design ever since I can remember and I fell into modelling through wanting to design and then, through my modelling career I modelled a lot of lingerie,” the 25-year-old told the September issue of
Elle
. “My top goal is for it to be accessible and appealing to everybody, I didn’t design it for just me.”
