Womenswear brand Victoria’s Secret has been accused of cultural appropriation and of designing “racist” lingerie by a lifestyle editor at Cosmopolitan magazine.

In an article, Helin Jung, executive lifestyle editor at the outlet, criticized what she called the “sexist, patriarchal, mostly white corporation” for its “brazen” perpetuation of “what is clearly cultural appropriation.”

Jung begins her critique by describing the Victoria’s Secret annual fashion show, which kicked off Wednesday in Paris.

“Models dressed in costumes fit for segments called ‘Dark Angel,’ ‘Secret Angel,’ and ‘Bright Night Angels’ stomped down the runway at the Grand Palais, showing off the sculpted results of their life’s work and ‘naturally’ enhanced hair,” Jung wrote.

After detailing the various designers, models, and entertainers showcased at the “multimillion-dollar televised panty parade,” Jung ominously warns, “But look closer and you’ll see that the golden glitter path is paved with unfortunate intentions.”

Jung’s biggest point of contention, apparently, is that while Victoria’s Secret’s appears to celebrate the world’s multicultural beauty through design and fashion, it is actually engaging in the “exploitation of these cultural references.”

“[D]on’t let yourself be hoodwinked by Victoria’s Secret’s brazen attempt to relabel what is clearly cultural appropriation by turning it into a celebration of ‘culture,'” Jung wrote. “The brand and its creative leads shamelessly cherry-picked imagery, breaking apart aesthetic references from wherever they wanted and stitching them back together again. They’re telling us it’s worldliness. It’s not; it’s a hack job.”

Jung rails against Chinese cultural appropriation, writing that “the emblems that stood out most were the ones that came from Asia â€" specifically China.”

But Jung also acknowledges that Nepalese  jewelry designer Arpana Rayamajhi created most of the work for the segment.

Jung firmly rejects Victoria’s Secret for its seemingly sincere attempt at appreciating the world’s cultures.

“With its positive, pre-emptive spin about globalization and multiculturalism, Victoria’s Secret seems to have anticipated my response,” Jung wrote. “The brand is leading with the notion that we’re all members of the human race, therefore everything belongs to everyone.”

UPDATE: Cosmopolitan appears to have taken down the article, as the link leads to an error message. The article is still available in an archived link here.

Social media users who noticed the article ripped the fashion website for publishing the piece, which accused Victoria Secret of mass cultural appropriation for profit.

Kylie Jenner Posts a New Slew of Racy Lingerie Pics

Kylie Jenner sure does know how to get people's attention. The 19-year-old reality TV star and entrepreneur is launching a new business in the coming months, and yesterday, she gave fans a sneak peek of the Kylie Shop with several racy lingerie pictures on Instagram.

Though Jenner is the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner siblings, she's been wildly successful with her makeup brand, Kylie Cosmetics. Her lip kits have a cult-like following, and new products sell out within minutes. Now, it seems the young Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is venturing into a new arena with the launch of the Kylie Shop.

Jenner posted several provocative images to Instagram yesterday, each with a caption directing fans to the new Kylie Shop Instagram page. She's rocking lacy black lingerie and a trenchcoat as she poses for the sexy pictures. Her blonde hair is slicked back for the shoot, and she's wearing dramatic eye makeup to up the wow factor.

Global Market Review of Lingerie 2016 - Forecasts to 2022

DUBLIN, Dec 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Market Review of Lingerie - Forecasts to 2022" report to their offering.

The 2016 edition of this long-standing report provides - as ever - the complete retail market statistics and forecasts for the global lingerie market. This edition also focuses on the US and Chinese markets, analyses lingerie's supply chain and provides market shares for key brands and retailers.

Report extracts:

- Europe accounts for US$11.67bn of the total, and North America for US$7.93bn. Together they have a combined share of 66.3% of the world total. The percentage share held by Asia is 20.4%, and the combined share of South America and the rest of the World is 13.3%

- Brands (retail or manufacturer) resonate with consumers because they trust them. They trust them for fit and hence they are loyal to them. Therefore, hanging on to brands that the consumer believes in is vital. Hanes have done it very well in both North America and Europe with different brand names. Triumph have done it well in both Europe and Asia with the same names

- The world bra market for 2016 is worth US$16.42bn. Bras account for 55.5% of the world lingerie market. Europe and North America together have a combined percentage share of 68.7%. This exceeds the percentage share of lingerie as a whole, and indicates that bras are less important as a woman's purchase in the other continental regions. In unit terms, bra sales are 1596m units per year

- The future of distribution lies in organised retail. The dis-organised markets in the developing world are being eroded. That means for a brand being stocked in well-known retailers and for a retailer having either own brands or manufacturer brands that are trusted. The decisions on what to stock, either going forwards up the supply chain, of backwards down it, is one of the most important decisions to be made in this business

- The world briefs market is quantified in US$ billions value for 2016 at US$9.90bn. This represents 33.5% of the total lingerie market. In unit terms, briefs sales are 5260m units per year

Key Topics Covered:
