The sexiest Christmas lingerie shoots – from Maura Higgins to Christine McGuiness
As the nights get icier and the days get colder, this can only mean one thing… Christmas is just around the corner.
As temperatures drop and we all bundle up to stay warm, some celebrities seem completely immune to the cold.
Every year they brave the cold and strip down to their underwear for a sexy party get it.
Whether it’s for a Christmas advert, or just a fun home shoot for their Instagram page, A-listers, Hollywood’s top stars and even the reality stars have all been involved over the years.
From Amanda Holden modeling a red nightgown for underwear brand JD Williams to Maura Higgins showing off her enviable abs in nothing but a thong underwear and suspenders, these celebrities know how to handle a cold.
Here we look at the stars performing their sexy, festive lingerie shoots.
Maura Higgins
She’s having a slightly different run-up to Christmas this year after just stepping into the jungle for I’m A Celebrity Get me out of here!
The former Love Island star, 33, fronted a seasonal campaign for lingerie brand Ann Summers and we can see why.
The brunette looked stunning in a red lace bra, panties and suspenders.
In 2020, the Irish beauty became the face of the adult retailer and sex toy specialist, landing a six-figure deal after her candid sex chat on the ITV dating show.
Amanda Holden
In 2021, Amanda Holden proved she was a real woman snow Queen as she modeled the festive lingerie collection for JD Williams.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge, 53, collaborated with the household name, alongside Davina McCall, for their own collections.
Amanda, who is worth around £3.6million, “was chosen because she was a household name”.
And brand and culture expert Nick Ede thinks the pair “could have made around £1million from their partnership with the popular brand.”
Davina McCall
Davina was red hot in her lingerie photo with JD Williams.
The 57-year-old, who has a net worth of around £4 million, turned heads as she modeled a red lace bodysuit that was buttoned up.
The TV presenter laid seductively on the bed as she held a red rose and used her flirty touch to look into the camera.
Her dark brown hair was styled with a bouncy blow-dryer, creating an effortlessly chic look.
Rihanna
She’s worth over £1 billion, so Rihanna certainly knows a thing or two.
The 36-year-old singer set her bells ringing as she did a topless shoot for her underwear brand Savage X Fenty.
Rihanna limited herself to just her stockings and red panties with the text ‘naughty-not-nice’.
With that in mind, it doesn’t seem like she’s getting any gifts from Santa, but I guess that doesn’t matter if you make your underwear brand worth $1 million.
Heidi Klum
In typical supermodel style, Heidi Klum showed off her stunning figure in red lace lingerie.
The 51-year-old, who has a net worth of more than £130million, was all smiles as she posed for a Christmas photoshoot with her 19-year-old daughter.
Despite the festive theme, the German model caused a stir, with some fans calling it “inappropriate” to be in underwear for a shoot with her daughter.
Still, Heidi did not let the backlash spoil her holiday joy and continues to model for the Intimissimi brand.
Christine McGuinness
Christine McGuinness shows what her ex Paddy is missing and looks stunning in her lingerie.
Since splitting from the father of her three children, the 36-year-old has gone from strength to strength and this is clearly evident in her racy festive snaps.
And despite being divorced, this hasn’t stopped Christine from pulling up her suspenders and posing for a cheeky Christmas selfie.
Hailey Bieber
Hailey went all out on holiday cheer for her underwear shoot.
Choosing a slightly different color but still keeping it festive, the mum-of-one braved the cold in green lingerie.
Last year, 27-year-old Hailey, who accessorized her look with fur snow boots and a hat, sizzled in Victoria Secret’s Holidays 2023 campaign.
As of September 2024, Hailey Bieber has a net worth of £15 million, and that’s thanks to her high-end modeling work, including the festive one.
Bella Hadid
She’s worth £15 million, so it’s no wonder she’s feeling cheerful.
In 2021, Bella Hadid starred in Victoria Secret’s Holiday 2021 campaign wearing a tartan lingerie set.
The top model got her cards ready for the photo shoot and proved why she is one of the world’s sought-after models.
The brunette worked the camera and really SLEEPED.
Christmas fashion tips from an expert
CLEMMIE Fieldsend, fashion editor at Fabulous, has shared her top tips for looking fabulous this Christmas.
AVOID: Christmas sweaters
They are no longer a novelty, they have now become boring again and do not belong at a festive party.
By all means, go all in for Christmas Sweater Day for Save The Children, but never wear it before or after that day.
WEAR: Burgundy
At this time of year you can’t avoid burgundy and it is a luxurious, deep and rich color that is a welcome change from the Christmas red at Christmas.
Opt for silky textures or velvet for extra style points.
AVOID: PJs
The trend of feather-trimmed combination sets has had its day and is so dated.
This year, don’t break out your hair-plucked pair and buy a new set, instead, still go for the satin two-piece, but stay away from the plumes.
WEAR: Sequin dress
Try changing up the sequins a bit by wearing them with a different texture or color, for example a sequin skirt with a tight knit.
But if you really don’t know what to wear, reach for the sequins, it is Christmas after all.
AVOID: Sequin blazer
There’s nothing worse than showing up to a festive gig that looks like the hired entertainment.
Leave the sequin blazer to magicians and strict judges, but always opt for a classic tuxedo style or velvet instead.
WEAR: Bling pants
Last season, embellished jeans with diamond bling were having a moment, and this year they’re going to be just as big a hit.
If you don’t want gemstones pinging everywhere, try metallic PU pants.
