I saw a link online to a video clip of an interview he had done about the new collection. I think he said it's his 7th collection. He said this was quite a departure from what he'd done before. This is what he'd always wanted to do but he had to win the public's confidence first. You can find the clip by clicking the link below:

On Saturday I set off to do my Sainsbury's shop knowing that I would be able to browse Gok's collection and perhaps even buy a few pieces. And there it was - prominently displayed right at the front of the clothing section!!!
. . . But . . . huge disappointment!!!! I didn't like it!!!!! There is nothing about it I liked! Check it out for yourself by clicking the link below:

Actually I am exaggerating! I did like one thing. I bought a pair of black perfect fit trousers. They do fit really well and are comfy too.
I don't know about you but I have been a big fan of Gok's latest series Style Secrets. Gok has been helping single women who haven't dated for years to get back out there. Whoever says that clothes aren't important is crazy! These women transform when Gok shows them how to dress. Of course he's also brilliant at boosting their confidence too but the clothes make a massive difference.
I think when people feel low they tend to wear the same old clothes over and over again. They want to disappear into the background. They don't want to be noticed. They feel ugly. They look in the mirror and the clothes they are wearing don't do them justice so it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Once someone (Gok in this case) shakes them out of that downward spiral and shows them how to dress suddenly they believe they look good. Confidence emerges and they start to care about themselves and how they look. People start to notice and tell them how good they look and hey presto! - A transformation takes place!!!
So if anyone tells you that you buy too many clothes - so long as you feel good in them - ignore them!!!
Take a look at Gok's scrapbook from the series:
