Elle Macpherson wants her lingerie to flatter every body shape.

The Australian supermodel - who has her own range of underwear, Elle Macpherson Intimates - accepts that women come in all different shapes and knows how important it is to have a good-fitting bra and knickers.

She said: "I'm conscious when I'm designing lingerie of the need to create for all different types of women, so that my designs enhance the proportions of a woman's body. Most women want to make their hips look narrower and their breasts look bigger."

The 46-year-old beauty - nicknamed 'The Body' - says she and her team spend a lot of time thinking about different body shapes and draws inspiration from her own experiences.

The mother-of-two told Fabulous magazine: "We create bras for all body types and cup sizes. I've just launched a range of D-G cups and it's phenomenally successful. We also created a maternity line because I couldn't find anything pretty, comfortable and practical on the market when I was breastfeeding my sons."
