BRISBANE,
AUSTRALIA - June 17, 2003 /Send2Press Newswire/ -- Recently launched
Australian swimwear and sexy lingerie company, lustythreads (www.lustythreads.com),
has already racked up sales in 20 countries since going live on the
Internet.
Started by two women in a Brisbane garage in Dec. 2002, the company
has become a leading design innovator of hot swimwear worldwide. Much
of the company's success can be attributed to the unique Stars &
Stripes G-string bikini, which is the company's bestseller, offering
a patriotic yet sexy design for customers in the U.S.A.
"About 50% of our company's sales are currently coming from our
Stars and Stripes bikini," said Company Director, Victoria Brown.
"We think this is due in part to our American customers who love
the patriotic feel of the design, with a bold red white and blue style."
Other daring designs, such as the Micro Bikini, and quality fashion
fabrics including Wild Leopard and Erotic White Stripe from Italy, have
helped launch the company into the global market.
With over 80 bikini styles in exciting fabrics such as velvet and nude,
and 30 lingerie styles, lustythreads offers a great shopping experience
with a diverse selection. The company also offers a number of accessories
including the Lusty Mini. Prices start from just US$14.50.
The driving-forces behind the company are friends Victoria Brown and
Jennifer St George who met while working in a government-sponsored Internet
business. All of the products are designed and manufactured in Australia.
"Our major point of difference is that we are a bold Internet-only
company, producing the tiniest bikinis on the Web in the latest fashion
fabrics," said Brown. "We also believe our success is due
to the fact that our designs are by women for women."
lustythreads' sexy swimsuit models also help drive interest in the
company's products. "Each of our models are developing her own
fan club with emails coming from all over the world," continued
Brown. "Some of our models are now appearing in Australia's top
fashion magazines."
Victoria Brown has a Bachelor of Business and has been working in Internet
marketing for over 5 years. Previously, Victoria was the Head of Marketing
at a leading Australian community Internet portal. Victoria's passion
for fashion started at age five.
Jennifer St George brings over 15 years of global marketing to the
company. She holds a MBA from the Melbourne Business School and Duke
University (USA) and won the Rupert Murdoch Fellowship. Having marketed
trucks, beer and cars, Jennifer now revels in working in a female inspired
industry.
