SHIBUE Couture’s Jenny Buettner, isn’t just the founder and designer, she’s the model!

Once you get past the poor grammar and overall lack of relevance to whatever your interests are, clicking on the web clip advertisements within Gmail can really pay off. If it weren’t for one reporter’s childlike curiosity, well, you wouldn’t be reading the most lifestyle-changing product review that you are now.

It’s a what?
Lingerie designer Jenny Buettner came up with the concept of her SHIBUE Couture strapless g-string when she was in a pinch as a bridesmaid. Even for the fittest of models, a tight dress can equal panty lines. In that regard, bridesmaids really do seem to get the short end of the stick. When the dress you didn’t pick out doesn’t fit you well, what can you do? What can you say? Mixing her husband’s last name with her own, Buettner started her brand and made her solution.

Behold the strapless g-string, a mystery to women and men alike.
