A new line of fashion lingerie by the Pussycat Dolls raises one big, important question: How far can you stretch a novelty act? Well, if that extension is G-strings, thongs and (non-waterproof) bathing suits, it appears that you can work a one-album wonder pretty hard. (Still waiting on that Nicole solo record.)

The Pussycat Dolls' new line was shown off at L.A.'s recent fashion week, and guests included lingerie connoisseurs Sean Combs, Quincy Jones, Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine (undoubtedly in the front row to shop for their loved ones).

One last question: Should you call a clothing line "...shhh" when you know critics will be itching to add two letters to the end of the name? Isn't that just begging for trouble? Ah, we guess with pictures like these it really doesn't matter.
