What Not to Wear (Hardcover)

Nowhere near as much fun as watching the girls at work but infinitely preferable to acquiring their advice first hand, this book provides an invaluable guide to avoiding fashion faux pas. Separated into chapters themed by body shape--"big tits", "flabby tummy", "short legs" and so on--it provides step by step instructions on how to choose flattering, fashionable cuts and colours. "Looking stylish", they unsurprisingly declare, "is as much about knowing what not to wear as it is about knowing what suits you." With lists of golden rules and an index of boutiques, this volume, surely one of this season's essential purchases, will have you hot to trot in no time at all. --Travis Elborough

Several national newspapers profiled Susannah & Trinny over Christmas including THE OBSERVER, THE SUNDAY TIMES, DAILY TELEGRAPH, INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY, SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY. 'All hail to Susannah and Trinny, style icons turned superstars. For they at least, as we approach the new year, will be able to assure themselves: tomorrow belongs to me.' Virginia Blackburn, DAILY EXPRESS WNTW was 'The Digested Read' in THE GUARDIAN's 'The Editor' section 21/12. THEEVENING STANDARD recommended WNTW for the perfect christmas present for the 'woman who wears clothes'. The WALL STREET JOURNAL has also reviewed the book: '... we loved the book's jaunty practicality. Fat or thin, female readers will see themselves and their friends - and hopefully laugh instead of cry - if they pick up this little gem.' 'A wardrobe essential.'

Now we can all benefit from their honest fashion advice without having to go on telly to be told how fat and unstylish we are.
