Live webchat with Gok Wan, Mon 19 July, 7.30- 8.30pm

[OliviaMumsnet]

Oh yes, it's true.
We're delighted that Gok has found some time in his very busy schedule of getting people naked to join us at Mumsnet Towers next Monday.

Fresh from his new series where he styled his first man on this evening's show, he'll be answering Mumsnetter's
questions.

If you can't make it (and we realise there may be a little bit of a bedtime clash) then post your question for Gok in advance here. (no nudity necessary!)

Thanks

Hareem pants are quite hard to pull off for most shapes... bigger girls have to make sure the material is stiffer and also try and wear heels to balance the excess material. Also, make sure you define your waist to show your silhouette. Kisses, x

try a belt just under the bust... it will help show your shape off x

Thank you Gok!

I never even stopped to think that other people on the beach are worried about their own bodies! I always think that everyone must be looking at my humongous thighs!

Will be strutting about in my bikini with pride this summer. Thanks for the confidence boost xxx

Girl, I love my trackie! Don?t be fooled by the quiff and black outfits! Some days are all about the comfort! Happy Slobbing! X

Thanks Gok i'll try that

i too feel VERY strongly that we are our own worst enemies re bikinis.

( and if its THAT bad then wear a strappy vest top whne walking about)

Hi Gok
I love you!!

Hi Gok,

Can short, larger women get away with maxi dresses?

Thanks

I am always stunned when you say you are a size 24 Gigantaur. You are one of the most stunning women I have met and do not look big, just amazonian iyswim

you really have slobby days? i never really thought of you having struggly days either. can't decide if my bubble's burst of i'm just totally reassured! thanks for your honesty! x

Giagantaur - you are fab. I would love to be your size. Tall and in proportion - perfect.

Fake tan is better than sun baking at a risk! make sure you don't apply without using gloves otherwise your hands will stain for days!!! AHEM!!

Hi Gok!

Hope you don't mind me re-posting my question as I posted before the webchat started!

I am so skinny. Since having my second child 10 months ago I have lost so much weight and after BFing I have no bust at all. I am all bones, angular and I am very self conscious of what others think of me. I am 5' 10" and a size 8 is quite big on me.

So, to my question, is there a way that I can appear bigger, more curvy or just have some sort of female shape, and not feel like a boy in a dress? I am stuck in my skinny jeans, vest top and long cardigans as I don't see the point in wearing nice clothes that (a) don't fit me and (b) just look like a sack!!

Thanks x

Gok - I'm a 32F and want to wear nice dresses, but they all have teeny straps or small bust bits so the norks either don't stay in, or have huge bra straps.

I have yet to find a strapless bra I could wear all day comfortably.

Any advice?

Would love to be on HTLGN but need to have enough confidence to fill in the form. I see me at my biggest when I look in the mirror, regardless of what size my jeans say.

I think Aunty Gok is speaking from experience on the gloves, eh??

Thanks for the tip. Will get some phytaoil to try!

I am a terrible knitter, but don?t tell my Nan, she taught me! X
