The Playboy Party Powered by LELO<\/span><\/h3>\n

LELO made a pit stop in Ljubljana , Slovenia to team up with Playboy for the region\u2019s hottest party in 2011. The Playboy Party powered by LELO was held at TOP Klub, Slovenia\u2019s most prestigious club and a proud member of The World\u2019s Finest Clubs. There was no finer venue to introduce our Slovenian friends to LELO and our extensive line of designer products, and no better models than the Playboy Playmates themselves!<\/span><\/p>\n

Miroslav Slavic, CEO of LELO had this to say about the event; \u201cPlayboy is one of the most recognized and popular consumer brands in the world, while the managers of TOP are our main distributors for this region \u2013 the Playboy Party powered by LELO was a great opportunity for everyone involved, and a stylish way to make our entrance in Slovenia.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

LELO Named \u2018Best New Exhibitor\u2019 at Fashion Exposed<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"lelo<\/p>\n

LELO was named 2011\u2019s \u2018Best New Exhibitor\u2019 at Australia\u2019s largest fashion industry show in March. Following very well received debuts in the US and UK in January, LELO\u2019s elegant Sussurra collection of lingerie and loungewear stole the show at Fashion Exposed. Featured among 1,500 international brands on display at the Sydney Exhibition Centre from 6-8 March, the <\/span>Sussurra<\/span><\/i> collection was singled out for the honour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Made with the discerning couple in mind, the Sussurra collection utilizes silk stripe chiffon, silk satin and silk habutai in the most fashionable manner. The collection encompasses robes and kimonos, open front babydolls and camisoles, tap shorts and panties alongside men\u2019s lounge pants and boxer shorts. Showcasing elegant and enticing expressions in silk and satin, <\/span>Sussura <\/span><\/i>is a statement of the finest kind in the fashion of seduction.<\/span><\/p>\n

LELO on Film: GIGI\u2019s Big Cameo<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If there\u2019s one thing we love at LELO, it\u2019s comedy films from Hong Kong \u2013 we\u2019re suckers for ribald humor and indecipherable cultural references \u2013 it\u2019s just who we are. We just love settling into our comfy couch with a big bowl of buttery popcorn (or a B.B o\u2019 Buttery P. as we like to call it) to laugh away at the latest that Hong Kong cinema has to offer.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was during one of our recent sino-cinephile sessions that we screened Microsex Office, a raunchy sex comedy from writer\/director Jim Chim, who also takes the starring role. Despite what the title might have you think, it was released in 2011 rather than 1997, and we were halfway paying attention (sometimes the Buttery P. trumps the entertainment) until something caught our eye. Holy cow. That\u2019s a big GIGI<\/span>\u2122<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

LELO Wins XBIZ Award for Best Product Packaging<\/span><\/h3>\n

Palladium Hollywood on Sunset Boulevard was the perfect venue for the glitzy and glamorous 2011 XBIZ Awards where LELO came away with the top prize for Excellence in Product Packaging.<\/span><\/p>\n

This marks the second time the company has been singled out in this category, when in 2010 they were awarded for Outstanding Packaging at the Adult Video News (AVN) \u2018O\u2019 Awards. The quality of LELO\u2019s packaging is something the company prides itself on, as survey results from LELO.com show\u00a0 that a majority of customers keep the outer boxes long after purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n

LELO & Brookstone Celebrate Partnership with Event at Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas<\/span><\/h3>\n

LELO was the guest of honor at the Venetian Las Vegas, where we celebrated our partnership with US retailer Brookstone with a showcase event to mark the availability of LELO products in Brookstone stores across the US from October onwards. Coinciding with CurveNV where we showcased our luxurious Sussurra collection of intimate apparel, the event sparked a host of excitement from media professionals and the public alike.<\/span><\/p>\n

SenseMotion\u2122 technology with wireless remote<\/span><\/a> allows customers to control the speed and intensity of vibrations via movements from the palm of their hand, all within a range of up to 12 meters\/39 feet. More than this, the vibrations in the massager are mirrored in the controller \u2013 another industry first that allow couples to know what their partner is experiencing.<\/span><\/p>\n

LELO Wins Big at the Eros Shine Awards<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On November 22<\/span>nd<\/span>, LELO received top honours at the Eros Shine Awards held in Melbourne, Australia to recognize achievements in the country\u2019s adult industry. LELO took home trophies in two categories; Best Products and Best-Selling Products, with the former chosen by Eros Association Inc. as well as consumer voters from around Australia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eros Association Inc. is Australia\u2019s premier national adult retail and entertainment organization, and the Eros Shine Awards recognize industry leaders for professional integrity, creativity and innovation, and LELO can now count two of these prestigious awards among their collection.<\/span><\/p>\n
