Kylie Bisutti, the 21-year-old Victoria's Secret Angel, has quit her position for the sake of her husband, her Christian beliefs and young teenage girls.

The modelling world was shocked when Bisutti quit the prestigious Angel stage - and even more incredulous when she said that, as a Christian, she believed that only her husband should be viewing her scantily-clad body.

However, Bisutti's since done interviews revealing it's more complicated than that.

She said that her 8-year-old cousin, who is a girl, once looked at her in the mirror and said matter-of-factly "I think I'm going to stop eating so I can look like you."

She told CBS, an American news station, that she couldn't keep modelling after that, as it "broke her heart".

She does, however, say that Christianity for her dictates that she should be more modest about revealing her body, and that her marriage should be sacred.

Christian Victoria's Secret Angels aren't new - Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima famously declared that she was saving herself for marriage, before marrying Marko Jaric in 2009.

However, this is the first time a model has actively quit for the sake of her faith. Do you think Bisutti did the right thing?

If you've got what it takes to make it in fashion - REALLY got what it takes - there's a mentor programme out there for you.

The Fashion Future Mentor Programme has just launched, and the 20 talented recipients will get prizes that boggle the mind.

It's designed to give the best new crop of Australian fashion and retail talent a leg-up - by immersing them in couture experience money can't buy.

The list of mentors? Balenciaga, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Tom Ford, Viktor & Rolf - essentially support from the very, very top.

On top of that, the winners will be going to the major Fashion Weeks around the world, from New York to Paris, absorbing material, networking madly and getting insight that's normally reserved to fashion insiders and editors.

The prize also includes monetary support. So whom do you have to impress? The selection board includes Alex Perry, an editor from Marie Claire, a fashion consultant from Harper's Bazaar and a marketing consultant from Oroton. Essentially they're a group of people who know what they're talking about.

To be selected, you must register by the 31st of February 2012. Are you up for it? Image: Fashion Future Mentor Programme.

It's not often that a jewellery company gives an all-round experience with the act of buying a necklace or bracelet.

However, Australian veteran pearl company Paspaley is out to change that.

Their latest site immerses the buyer in the history of the company, pearls and style - and gives them a chance to observe the entire process leading up to their pearls arriving.

From the grading of pearls to Paspaley's many years in the industry, the site's a sight to behold. It's also a way to make yourself sound very informed at the next cocktail party while displaying your South Sea Pearls - there's every piece of information about pearls you could ever want.

Paspaley's CEO has said that they wanted to design a "unique website that would engage visitors on a journey of exploration and educate consumers about the virtue of pearls."

High-end jewellery and couture sales are increasingly moving online. Rather than letting Net-a-Porter handle their sales to the general public outside their boutiques, many lines are now offering digital sales experiences - though some are holding out, thinking that the internet is for 'plebeians'.

RESCU is very glad to see Paspaley embracing the next generation of communicating with customers. After all, if we can't visit the South Seas to see how our pearls are sourced, it's good to have another way to appreciate their journey to us.

If there was one thing that stunned us about the BAFTAs on Sunday night, it was Meryl Streep, resplendent in a corset from Vivienne Westwood as she stepped onstage to accept her Best Actress award.

(She also, charmingly, lost her Louboutin, which was returned to her by Colin Firth. Talk about a Cinderella moment.)

Streep is definitive proof that you don't have be a 20-year-old buxom model to get away with corsetry. As a woman of a certain age, she looked like a goddess - and while part of that is just being Meryl Streep, it's also a trend.

RESCU has your guide to wearing corsets and not looking like a vintage fuddy-duddy or a burlesque dancer.

First things first - context. Corsetry is almost always an evening prospect. However, a day corset is allowed with the right accessories - even at the office. Pair it with a covering blouse underneath, a pencil skirt or trousers and flats, and refrain from looking too much like a sexy librarian.

The material has to be right for daytime, however - nothing shiny, silken or decorated, unless you work in a creative field and can wear what you like.

Work it back with simple accessories and always look professional. Wearing it under a jacket is a nice touch.

For evening, the key is Helmut Newton chic. Now, how to find the perfect corset? Dita von Teese gets hers custom made, but we can't all be multi-millionaires, alas.

Get yours at a decent corsetry store and expect to pay a significant amount of money. T

here are several shapes. Pick one which suits your body-type and wardrobe - a long-line one might not be suitable if you want to wear it with high skirts, for instance, and a deep sweetheart neckline might not suit your bosom. Get advice from the makers.

Pick something in classic colours - Meryl's black is a divine example - and wear it with chic skirts or palazzo pants in similar colours. Nothing too overbearing - you want it to look normal, not costumey.

Avoid anything with frills or floral print, and wear a statement necklace and tuxedo jacket to compliment the look. Wear a sheer blouse over the top if you're feeling over-modest.

Think chic rather than Merchant Ivory, Vogue rather than undergarments, and you're on the right track...
