RC Crescentini new sensuality The new RC line, Loop Me, which was launched in “total black” has evolved into an explosion of bright colors for a full-on effect, in line with the forthcoming fashion trends yet still retaining the collection’s sensual and elegant style. The line also presents innovative lacquered details which create intriguing geometric patterns for a provokingly sensual tattoo-like effect: the varnish, which can be either black or white, is overlayed onto the four colors of the mesh creating exciting chromatic combinations which can be personalized. The range of shapes on offer is especially wide and includes two different types of push up bras as well as a strapless bra with a front opening which can be combined with boy-shorts, briefs and gstrings. More extravagant items of the collection present hooks and clasps for a playful and sensual charm. 54
