    The authors prove the following theorem. Let \(G\subset {\mathbb{C}}^ n\) be a convex hypersurface (i.e. a (not necessarily smooth) boundary of a convex domain) which is a fibre bundle whose fibres are complex hypersurfaces. Then these hypersurfaces are parallel to each other. This result is used to show that the Hausdorff measure \(\Lambda^ 2\) of the Shilov frontier S(D) of a bounded convex domain \(D\subset {\mathbb{C}}^ 2\) satisfies the inequality \(\Lambda^ 2(S(D))\geq c\sqrt{V},\) where V is the volume of D and c is a (universal) positive constant (it is conjectured that \(c=4\pi\) which would yield a complex analogue of the isoperimetric inequality).
