Summer 2010

Straight: Spring/Summer 2011

You're one incredibly lucky girl. As you're tall and slim you can pretty much wear anything you like which makes you the envy of women all around you!

However some girls with a straight figure often feel they're not sexy and feminine with their boyish frame. It's all about defining your waist and creating the illusion of curves and we're here to help.

See our pick of the latest pieces in store now that were made for your shape...
