This series of playful lingerie photos show that sexy doesn't have to be completely dark and brooding. Instead, there can be a lighthearted nature to the images that makes the woman appear more like the girl next door, which is a fantasy many men have had. Roaming around the house in bodysuits, [thigh-high stockings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feather-lace), slinky dressing gowns and more, model Emma Stern Nielsen makes it easy to make such a comparison.

The collection of playful lingerie was shot by German fashion photographer Ellen von Unwerth for Triumph's [fall 2014 ad campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity). Whether posing on her own, with a friend or a mini-me, the blonde bombshell makes quite the impact. Even if she wasn't half naked, she would have men panting after her in an instant. Although the playful lingerie doesn't hurt.
