    Australian model Miranda Kerr sizzles in a new video advert for Victoria's Secret's spring/summer 2012 cotton collection

    The London store launch may have been postponed, but here's something to whet your appetite for when the shops do finally open, as Miranda Kerr models the Victoria's Secret cotton range in a new video advert.

    The gorgeous Australian model can be seen wearing lingerie from the latest cotton collection as she walks on a sun-drenched beach, lies in a hammock and rests on a bed in a wooden shack.

    In one clip Miranda Kerr, one of the most famous Victoria's Secret 'Angels', can be seen relaxing on a bench beside the sea in underwear by the US brand and a denim waistcoat. In another cheeky shot, Orlando Bloom's wife wears a pleated top and a pair of lime green briefs with the slogan, Girls Just Wanna Have Sun.

    But if you fancy snapping up some of the new underwear pieces, you're going to have to wait a little while longer. It was announced this week that Victoria's Secret had postponed the opening of its first UK stores.

    The phenomenally popular US lingerie firm had planned to launch two shops in London – a flagship on New Bond Street and another store in the Westfield shopping centre in Stratford – to coincide with the opening ceremony of the Olympics on Friday 27th July, before considering a rollout across Britain.

    However, the brand confirmed that the stores will not be ready in time. Boo! No new opening date has been revealed, but we are expecting an announcement later today.

    Victoria’s Secret has built up a huge fan base in recent years and always appears near the top of the must-visit shops list when tourists visit the US. This is largely thanks to its theatrical catwalk shows, where the world’s hottest models – the Angels – strut their stuff in the store’s underwear and huge feathered angel wings.

    Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Gisele Bundchen are just some of the beauties who have joined Miranda on the catwalk for Victoria’s Secret.
