We were bummed that Agent Provocateur's latest video is called "Les Fleurs du Mal" and has nothing to do with Baudelaire, but this video makes up for that by being one of the most brilliant lingerie advertisements/horror films we've ever seen.
This video has everything! A half-naked woman answering a scary phone call? Check. Something jumping out from the quiet darkness? Double check. Sex playing into sinister vibes? Yes, but then that gets subverted when the sinister vibes become sexy. Also, nipples! Agent Provocateur raises a good point, really: there is nothing scarier than having a less-than-flawless lingerie collection.
