Monday, 10 August 2009

Gok Wan encourages a 72-year-old woman to strip for his TV show 'How To Look Good Naked'.

The fashion stylist and TV host said the latest series of his show - which encourages its subjects to feel positive about their bodies and shows them how to look good in clothes and naked - pushed the boundaries, and his oldest ever contestant turned out to be the most risque.

Speaking at London Gatwick Fashion Week, he told BANG Showbiz: "Friday (07.08.09), was our last filming day, it's very emotional it's great, really nice series of the show, because we've really pushed it further.

"One episode is an OAP special with a 72-year-old woman.

"That was quite phenomenal actually, a really weepy one and she was great. When she came out and she was the most risquout of all of them!"

Gok also told how another episode features a mother and daughter who both suffered from a major lack of confidence.

He added: "That was challenging, but has a great story again. The lack of confidence got passed on from the mum's mum, then to the mum and then down to the daughter, and it was like a re-occurring theme that kept on happening.

"And I went in there like a bull and stopped it and, yeah, it has come out really well for them."

London Gatwick Fashion Week, held at the airport from August 6-9, gave fashion advice and tips to holidaymakers as well as promoting the benefits of duty free shopping.

Terri Seymour has revealed she is still in regular contact with ex-boyfriend Simon Cowell, with the pair staying up until 2am talking to each other.
