"My boobs are the bane of my life, theyre a real burden. Every time I have a baby, I go up two sizes. Ill probably be an E cup after this. I cant bear it."
"The show is much more emotional now. Its a journey, but it is still about clothes, too. Its been fascinating to see how looking good and having faith in your appearance makes you into a sexier person, which makes you attractive to your partner again. We come in as complete strangers and get to know them all extremely well. It was a privilege for Trinny and I to have these people feel they could open up to us. It was very humbling, too."
"For us, it’s all about shape, and how that is going to cure a bodily defect."
"It’s been very satisfying to design a range which is all about shape. It’s not about what size you are, it’s about how you can minimise or accentuate parts of your body with clothing. That’s what we’ve created."
"Posh does not equal style. Really, God, thats just ridiculous. Posh equals tradition. Anyone can achieve style. It doesnt matter who you are or where youre from."
