Sorry this blog’s been quiet for a while, it’s not that I’ve forgotten you readers; it’s been a really busy and exciting time here.
We’ve not only moved premises (and home!) but have been renovating our fantastic new show room, called At Forty-One. You’ll now be able to visit us, see and try on all the website styles and find new exclusive designs before they go online. We can offer a professional fitting service or just stop by for tea and a chat, (there may even be cake if I’ve been baking!) Just give us a call before travelling to check our opening times, please book for a fitting.
It feels like summer is on its way with all the lovely sunshine we’ve been getting. Breakfast alfresco has been a great treat! The warmer whether has put me in a holiday mood and we have some fantastic new swimwear styles just gone on line.
The new 2011 designs from Seafolly really hit the spot for beautiful stylish beach wear, and the fabulous Spanx maillot has us all drooling, classic styling with all the Spanx control technology, perfect.
Have a look, it’s at http://www.aboutthegirl.co.uk/swimwear .
We pre-viewed the new styles at the Brighton Macmillan Fashion show on Friday and everyone loved them. Here’s a picture of the fabulous Sophie Corbett, who hosted the event modelling our Spanx Suit.
Here at About the Girl, we understand that customer feedback is our most important sounding board for market research. We know some people love to see lingerie on a gorgeous professional model:
But we also understand that our most of our customers have been through a mastectomy and would probably like our designs on an equally gorgeous mastectomy model. So we hope you like some of our new images. We wanted to show the swimwear on real women as well.
At the moment, the website has some pictures of pro models, and others of real women – but which do you prefer?

Professional Models VS Real Life Models: Have Your Say
Here at About the Girl, we understand that customer feedback is our most important sounding board for market research. We know some people love to see lingerie on a gorgeous professional model:
But we also understand that our most of our customers have been through a mastectomy and would probably like our designs on an equally gorgeous mastectomy model. So we hope you like some of our new images. We wanted to show the swimwear on real women as well.
At the moment, the website has some pictures of pro models, and others of real women – but which do you prefer?
Do you think we should follow classic lingerie companies and only use the press pictures of pro models?
Should we do away with tradition and use only real women?
Or would you prefer a healthy mix of both?
Please get in touch and let us know – we’d love to hear from you.
