Simply Gok Wan Lingerie Blog

Well I can safely say that all my nerves at interviewing Gok Wan were all for nothing - he is such a fabulous person and he put me right at ease! I managed to ask him a few questions - watch this space for the full interview!

Yesterday’s event went so well - all the Simply Yours team’s planning paid off! All the Key 103 winners had a wonderful time, drinking their ‘Goktails’, enjoying their goodie bags and discovering what their real bra size is thanks to the help of the Simply Yours bra fitting team. And what’s more, the event raised at least £2,500 for CLIC Sargent, the charity that cares for children and young people with cancer.

I’ll be doing some follow up posts with the Gok interview, interviews with some of the winners and a couple of surprise celebrities we weren’t expecting to see, plus some fab video footage of the event.

For now though, I’ll just share with you some of the photos from the event:

We’re all very excited here at Simply Yours because this afternoon we’re off to meet Gok Wan again! We’ve arranged a fabulous bra-fitting event at Manchester’s prestigious Hilton hotel for 50 lucky winners and their friends who won via a competition at Key 103. It’s so important to wear the right sized bra- and nobody knows it better than Gok Wan - and Simply Yours!

One winner will even get to have a one-on-one style consultation with Gok Wan himself and get to wear some of Gok Wan’s shapewear collection!

I’m feeling pretty nervous as I may even get to ask Gok Wan a few questions myself – eek! I’ve got my outfit sorted and I’m hoping that gets the Gok seal of approval. Soon find out though…

Don’t worry; I’ll be back tomorrow to keep you updated with all of the Gok Wan goss from the event. There’ll be photos and videos – and hopefully a mini Gok Wan interview if I get the chance.

Wish me luck!

June and July are the big wedding months and if you fancy looking extra gorgeous on your big day then what better lingerie range to choose than Gok Wan’s sexy shapewear! Now you don’t have to choose between something that looks amazing and something that gives you an amzing shape becuase Gok Wan’s shapewear does both!

Feast your eyes on this lot!

This would make absolutely perfect bridal lingerie - it will give you a gorgeous shape under your dress and a nice clean line. With its classic forties styling it’s sexy without being fussy, giving you the best of both worlds on your big day.

And, of course, the Gok Wan shapewear range is available in size 8-32, making it perfect underwear for plus size brides too.

I don’t know about you but I was pretty surprised to hear Liam Gallagher name drop Gok Wan in this interview context (Liam is talking about his clothing line, Pretty Green):

`With Pretty Green, it’s all about my personal tastes. I’m not trying to make a massive statement about men’s fashion and I’m definitely not gonna appear on TV with Gok Wan. I know Gok Wan pretty well, he’s alright. I know him through the missus. But I won’t be appearing on his show. Or Lorraine Kelly’s. No chance.”

Liam Gallagher knows Gok Wan pretty well? How strange! Now that is two people I would never have put together!

Mind you, as per my last post, Gok Wan does apparently have a footie and Top Gear loving side so maybe it does all make sense!

You can read the full Liam interview here.

Gok Wan’s been over in New Zealand recently and, as well as confessing his love for a NZ TV weatherman he also did this interview.

It’s well worth a read for avid Gok Wan fans.

Highlights for me:

• Touching Gok Wan’s hair is a bit like touching a brillo pad
• He has a blokey Top Gear and football loving side
• He really does fancy Tony Blair. I won’t repeat what he said - you’ll have to read the article!

He’s mentioned it in the past but now finally Gok Wan has got the guys in his sights for his How to Look Good Naked makeover show!

If you’re a fella looking for a confidence boost from everyone’s favourite guru of gorgeous then this is how to get on the show:

Good luck!

No news as yet on whether the Gok Wan lingerie range will be extended to cater for men too….

Gok clearly had his work cut out during recent filming for Fashion Fix with celebrity guest Cilla Black.

In his show Gok Wan advocates getting designer style outfits without the designer price tags by savvy shopping on the high street. Yet Cilla confessed to flying over to America just to buy jeans! Not exactly credit crunch shopping.

Trust Gok to sum it up in true Gok Wan style:

 ”Basically that’s about £5,200 for one pair of jeans. You’ve got the most expensive arse in the industry!” 

Remember, one of the best ways to make your clothes look good and give old outfits a new lease of life is to invest in good underwear.

Try the Gok Wan Curve Controller bodyshaper for an all over great shape that’s comfy enough to wear every day.

And yes, Gok Wan did manage to get Cilla into a pair of high street jeans - of course!

Talented lady and Gok Wan’s mate Mica Paris is about to burst back onto the music scene with a new album.

She talks to Female First all about it - and of course, what everyone also wants to know, what it’s like to work with Gok Wan!

This is what she said about working with him on Miss Naked Beauty:

Aww it was wicked, I love Gok! He’s awesome and so amazing! the guy is so down to earth, he’s so not affected by the fame and everything. You know, he loves women and I love Gok, we just did our first show and he was right at the front shouting “Mica!” he’s just lovely, and such a supporter. Love him!

She’s a lucky lady. All the best woth the album Mica!
