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
MNHQ

Dolly try a pair of wide trousers that flair from the thigh... make sure they hit the floor and keep your flats simple... very san tropez! x

rockbudgie · 19/07/2010 19:35

Gok - what would you suggest a new (or not so new!) mum does to regain some body confidence after enduring saggy tummy, saggy boobs and stretchmarks? I've tried magic knickers, bio oil, phytaoil (which I love!) and all sorts of things but I'm still not feeling the love!

Thank you!!!

GokWan · 19/07/2010 19:35

Hey babes? Make sure your flat shoes are as glam as poss. I would suggest you get some fabulous ballet pumps and customize with some sparkles from a haberdashers! Happy time babycakes. X

em83 · 19/07/2010 19:36

herbietea next have some very glam flats atm

PussinJimmyChoos · 19/07/2010 19:36

Gok - I love your show but one thing - why do people have to get nekkid on a catwalk to feel good about themselves?

Don't you think we can and should feel just as good about ourselves just as well when covered?

You need to do a show for the Muslim gals - how to look good covered...but you won't be able to grab our bangers

There aint nothing better for a post baby tum than looking into that cott and realising why your body has changed! Nothing can surely make any women feel good about herself that than the child she created! much love, Aunty Gok x

em83 · 19/07/2010 19:37

thanx GOK !!!
wide trousers that flair from the thigh anyone know where i should be looking for these?

pissovski · 19/07/2010 19:37

Hi Gok!!

Love the advice you give I am a 'generously proportioned' size 16 (38dd) who is already a convert to 'big pants' (aka iron knickers!) but i still hate my flabby midriff and feel that i have to keep to covered - no fitted t shirt without a zipup over type thing any fab suggestions to hide what needs hiding without being far too hot!

Thanks lots xxx

PS met you in Liverpool - made me v happy!

dawntigga · 19/07/2010 19:37

rockbudgie try emu oil, it lifts scarring really well, you need very little in your normal moisturiser. I made a soap and some moisturiser for a friend who had v bad scarring on his arm after coming of his motorbike. Silly bugger had a helmet on his arm and skidded in the wet. You'd hardly know the scarring was there now.

rockbudgie · 19/07/2010 19:38

Yeah of course I adore her Gok. It's me I want to adore again! I just don't feel sexy anymore...

MrsJT · 19/07/2010 19:38

sorry, MrJT just administering smelling salts - I've been shouting that question at the TV for the last 3 series of Naked/Fashion fix.

And breath

y PussinJimmyChoos

When my girls get naked its simply a way of them facing all their body fears.. also a live show gives them the extra push to enjoy being looked at again.... much love x

TitsalinaBumSquash · 19/07/2010 19:39

Hi Gok,

What dresses suit a butterfly shape, i have big boobs and wide hips but a slim tummy and small calves and arms.

Im only 5ft and size 14.

I want to be a Gokette by the way, let me know if your recruiting! Even my 7 yr old niece wants a capsule wardrobe a'la Gok.

CaveMum · 19/07/2010 19:39

Squuueeeee!

Gok, your thoughts on 40s/50s retro clothes. I've recently discovered the Bettie Page range but am a little afraid to take the plunge.
It would be so much easier if I worked in a 50s office a la Mad Men!!!

MammyMakkaMoo · 19/07/2010 19:40

Aw, love what you said to rockbudgie. i'm going to print that out and stick it above my baby's bed, and give a copy to every new mummy
