Female Fashion - TV Heaven
Channel 4's TV delights are continuing to entertain us; not least with all the female fashion programmes filling our screens.
One of my favourites is 10 Years Younger, an opportunity for rather drab looking women 40 years+ to undergo a complete transformation. Nicky Hambleton-Jones takes us on a journey from cosmetic surgery to revamping the wardrobe, and the outcome is always pretty remarkable. One episode from Series 5 featured Marilyn Cooke, a lady who had spent far too many years on the sunbeds and even backcombed her hair. One can only assume she was preparing herself for an 80s revival.
Luckily, the team on 10 Years Younger managed to transform Marilyn, and the clothing that Nicky chose for her looked stunning. Female fashion for a mature lady can be a bit of a grey area, so i think it is great that programmes such as this are helping women find their inner youthfulness.
Then there is the assured presence of Mr Gok Wan, a TV ratings hit. He burst back onto our screens earlier this year with his new series "Gox's Fashion Fix" and this is a great show for fashion loving females everywhere. Gok tells us how to create show-stopping outfits for high street prices. He then puts his creations to the test by pitting them against couture designs that easily exceed the £1000 price tag. Invariably, Gok wins the audience over and leaves the expensive designs looking a little more than worthless.
In the eyes of the consumer, this is even more evidence that branded clothing could be overrated.
So, when you're next stuck for what to watch on a night, make sure you "channel-hop" to a female fashion programme; guaranteed to quench your fashion thirst!
