Michael Bublé is the first to admit he's a lucky man. But Ultimo's latest campaign starring his wife, Luisiana Lopilato, will make him the envy of thousands.

The 24-year-old Argentine model shows off her curves in the label's boudoir-inspired winter collection.

But, perhaps surprisingly, the newlyweds are in no hurry to start a family.

The big band singer recently revealed he is not yet ready to give up his party lifestyle.

He said: 'This year everyone's pregnant or having babies, it feels like. It goes in cycles, but everyone I know is having babies. It's that age.



'None of my friends come out anymore. Dude, they don't even leave their house.'

Bublé would like his wife to be pregnant by next Christmas, though. He said: 'I love kids, I'd love to have kids.

'There's that half of me that thinks I'm never going to be ready for it and that maybe I'm too selfish for it, and there's that half that can't wait to go to Disneyland and watch them see Mickey for the first time.'

Luisiana's shoot was partly inspired by her husband's profession - she sits at a piano in some of the pictures - but both are keen to emphasise that she has her own very successful career.

The Buenos-Aires-born beauty has previously fronted campaigns for Coca Cola and L’Oreal and is an award-winning actress in her South American homeland.

Luisiana is also a recording artist, and shot to teenage stardom on a Latin American Glee-style TV series Chiquititas.

She follows in the footsteps of Kelly Brook, Mel B, Sarah Harding, Helena Christensen and Brazilian supermodel Raica Oliveira as the face of Ultimo.

This luxurious collection features sexy lace and daring cutouts as well as retro-inspired lace details and organza ribbon.

Michelle Mone OBE, Ultimo founder, said: 'The run up to the festive season is such an exciting time for us to be launching this incredibly sexy collection with the gorgeous Luisana.

Mone - who has stripped down to model the brand's underwear herself in the past - says she chose Luisana personally after spotting the actress's wedding photos.

She said: 'It took me a long time to get her but I refused to give up until I got her. Luisana’s jaw-dropping beauty and charisma are a perfect fit for Ultimo.'

Luisana had dated Bublé for just one year when her 36-year-old boyfriend surprised her with a proposal.They met after one of Michael's concerts it November 2008.

A friend revealed: 'They met at a party the record company threw for him after his show in Buenos Aires.

'The head of the label wanted to introduce Michael to Argentina's most famous actress.

'When he met her, he said it was love at first sight.'

He then popped the question while on a trip to Argentina in November 2009.

The two were married three times - first in a small civil ceremony in Buenos Aires, attended by just a handful of friends and family - and, of course, a horde of fans.

The second ceremony was a lavish celebration for 300 in a ranch outside of Buenos Aires,while the third took place in Bublé's hometown of Vancouver, where a small civil ceremony was held to accommodate friends and family there.

When they do start a family, it will likely be even more of a celebration.

Ultimo is available at www.ultimo.co.uk and Debenhams stores nationwide.
