The star was left without any luggage after she flew from her Los Angeles home to meet with her former Spice Girls bandmates and family last week in her home country.
Luckily, 34-year-old Mel is an underwear model for lingerie company Ultimo, who were able to help her out of her predicament.
She explained: "Things didn't get off to a very good start, as I arrived with no luggage and, as a result, no underwear. Luckily, being the face and body of Ultimo I was able to phone them up and get them to send over another set of the new collection to my hotel, which was a lifesaver."
Mel flew back to the US over the weekend and has since starred in a raunchy photo shoot for Ultimo in Las Vegas - which after two years will be her last for the company.
Ultimo boss Michelle Mone is now searching for another celebrity to become the next face and body of the lingerie brand.
She said: "We'll really miss Mel, she's been amazing, but this is the last campaign she'll be appearing in.
"Mel is a bold, sexy icon of female empowerment and has been an incredible asset to Ultimo."
Previous star models include Girls Aloud star Sarah Harding and Kimberly Stewart.
