LAS VEGAS—It might be the last year the International Lingerie Show will take place at the Rio Hotel and Casino, but that doesn’t mean organizers weren’t willing to try and shake things up a bit.

The traditional ILS Fashion Show took place Tuesday morning during a breakfast for guests; it’s the first time the event was held during breakfast for many years. But the early hours didn’t keep audience members from appreciating the designs on display.

Menswear items from Cocksox—which is celebrating its 10th anniversary—were a hit with the crowds, as two male models showed off G-strings, jockstraps and more, crafted from mesh fabric, cotton and more.

For women’s fashions, companies such as René Rofé showed off trends in lingerie sets (bras, panties and garters) while Aussie Cossie DareWear exhibited boudoir sets of robes and panties, Jackie G-String highlighted beautifully decorated intimates and Dynashape Intima featured sexy basics.

And, as always, lingerie, accessories and menswear dominated the show floor at ILS. Forplay Lingerie had a prominent space on the floor and impressed attendees with pop culture-related costumes related to Pokemon, Star Wars and more. 

René Rofé, whose booth moved into the main show floor this time around, offered up some of its most popular collections, including the Cocolicious line, created by by actress/model/web personality Coco Austin.

Nipple accessories could be found throughout the show floor, with Pastease displaying its fun and flirty pasties in a variety of colors, styles and fabrics. 

Washington, D.C.-based Tata’s Pasties made its ILS debut, showing off their collection of pasties in large and small sizes in everything from cupcakes to rainbows to bacon and eggs.

Perennial favorite Shirley of Hollywood was also at the show, with the latest in lingerie trends available for buyers from all over the world.

ILS continues through Wednesday at the Rio. This marks the final time the show will be held at the location; beginning with the spring edition, ILS will be at the Westgate Hotel (the former Las Vegas Hilton).
