The butt crack has been the new cleavage in fashion since the dawn of low rise jeans. Those low designs have mostly been attributed to risqué haute couture fashion designer Alexander McQueen; his designs stormed the catwalks and then spilled out to the sidewalks with the fury of a few hundred tornadoes.
Now, according to Trend de la Creme, the posterior is the focal point once again with these revealing lines of intimate apparel from Agent Provocateur, Faire Frou Frou, Fun Lingerie and other intimate apparel stores. The butt crack has been the 21st century sexual fetish: It's naughty and slightly tawdry, but with the soft, round charm of a perfect pair of breasts.
