FORGET about oogling over photographs of Gong Li wearing Aimer bra and panties, sprawling provocatively on velvet sofas. They don’t exist. Gong Li is the official face and brand ambassador but unlike fronting jewellery, garments, shoes or make-up, she is not required to pose in skimpy lingerie. Mind you, Gong Li, at 44, has a body to die for.

That much was obvious in the 2006 epic period film, Curse Of The Golden Flower, where her spectacular cleavage was on display, thanks to Aimer. The fabulous yellow bustier with pink flowers that fitted her like a glove and showed her assets to maximum advantage in the movie was handmade by the Chinese lingerie company.
