    Gok’s heart is in the right place, but he has a long way to go when it comes to flattering shapes. The bras here look bulky and flatten the models, and the cup panels are not in the best place to shove your boobs forward. The designs… coloured shapewear is nice, I guess, but it’s not going to do much good if it shows through fabric. Worst of all, the size range seems to stop at a 30 and a UK G (US I) cup, so it only caters to small-to-medium boobs. I’ll stick to Spanx and a really good bra.

      I’m happy they’re catering to small-to-medium boobs since 99.9% of plus size clothing and lingerie is cut for large boobs. Not all of us are DDD’s.

      DDD (E UK) is on the dainty end, when the fit’s right. It’s still new for a brand to run to a G, but that’s dead on medium. A lingerie brand that knows what it’s doing should run to at least a J (preferably K) in the cup and a 28 in the band.

    I can’t quite get behind the fringe on those shorts. Are you supposed to wear it underneath other stuff? Like actual pants?

      The fringe shorts were just part of the shoot styling – they aren’t actually part of the lingerie range.

    I like the melon colored shapewear, and I really do prefer simple bras with clean lines that you can actually wear under a t shirt without lace and other embelishments showing through. I don’t think this lingerie is particularly remarkable, but I like it better than the ” victoria’s secret make your boobs look 3 cup sizes larger and push them up to your chin” look.
