ESQ: Do you prefer boy shorts and hip huggers to panties?
Adriana Lima: Definitely. It's like you have nothing on. I use them for traveling --

ESQ: Just boy shorts?
AL: You think they'd allow me on a plane with only boy shorts?

ESQ: I don't know, maybe.
AL: I think so, right? You're very creative.

ESQ: Any other benefits to wearing them?
AL: They're good if you want to cover up a little bit and still be very sensual. And you can wear tight clothes, which is nice.

ESQ: Is black the best color for bras?
Adriana Lima: I consider black bras elegant and feminine, because they go with anything, anytime.

ESQ: Even if people can't see it?
AL: Well, some people, if they are lucky, will see it. It's important what you wear under your clothes, because it helps you feel confident.

ESQ: And comfortable?
AL: It's almost like you don't have anything on. And it gives you extra cleavage, so it's really, you know [pushes together her breasts] . . . Don't you think? ESQ: .
AL: A woman always wants to feel sensual. A woman always wants to feel elegant.

ESQ: Is there ever a wrong time to give a woman a black bra?
AL: Never.

ESQ: What about on your mother-in-law's birthday?
AL: Right now, I don't have a mother-in-law.

ESQ: What should I look for when giving a black bra as a gift?
AL: The right size. And a push-up. A woman always loves to have a push-up.

ESQ: Men, too.
AL: Everybody loves a push-up.
