London, July 27 : Hollywood heartthrob Robert Pattinson is the inspiration for a new range of men's underwear being launched by British retailer Marks and Spencer.
The range is being called R-Pant, designed to be worn underneath skinny jeans and trousers. But Pattinson turned down the opportunity to model the underwear, reports contactmusic.com.
"Over the last three years we've seen an increase in the popularity of hipsters. The new range is designed to appeal to a young, fashion-savvy customer," said Richard Beale, head of merchandising at the store.
One in four men in Britain buy underwear from Marks and Spencer, and Pattinson has been seen buying underwear in the store before.
Oli Arnold, style director of Men's Health magazine, said: "I hate seeing the waistbands of men's pants poking out of the top of their jeans. Do Marks and Spencer even sell skinny jeans? Maybe lots of women will buy them for their husbands and boyfriends though."

Ex-couple Price, Andre voted most boring public figures
A survey conducted by men's online magazine AskMen UK has voted Katie Price and her ex-husband Peter Andre as the most boring public figures that people are tired of hearing about.
Price topped with 51 percent of votes in the Great Male survey as being the female public figure people were most tired of hearing about, leaving behind eccentric singer Lady Gaga and Malaria-stricken Cheryl Cole at second and third positions, respectively.
"For many British guys, Katie Price represents everything they'd want to avoid in a partner. For a number of men, her apparent harsh treatment of ex-husband Peter Andre makes her bad relationship material and her constant craving for attention would seem to be a huge personality turn off," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Andrew Lubega, editor of AskMen UK - who commissioned the survey - as saying.
In the male category, the 7,000 people surveyed placed Katie's ex-husband Peter in the top spot, closely followed by "Twilight" actor Robert Pattinson.
Golfer Tiger Woods, music mogul Simon Cowell
and England soccer star John Terry filled the rest of the top five slots.
The Great Male survey quizzed respondents on a range of topics, including use of technology, political preferences, favourite television shows
and celebrity crushes.
