About the show

Why is England so badly dressed?

Style gurus Trinny Woodall and Susannah Constantine are back to tackle some of Ol' Blighty's fashion problems. In the new series, Trinny and Susannah organise mass events designed to champion the consumer. Each week the pair take on a different challenge, including bottoms, big girls, shopping, and glamour.

The British bottom has been forgotten; the bit of a woman's body they never see has become a source of horror. Trinny and Susannah take a group of ladies who are bottom-phobic on a journey to help them learn to love and dress their bums.

Having dealt with body issues in previous programmes, the girls know they're in for a tough task to get women to be objective about their bottoms. To kick-start their mission, Trinny and Susannah pose nude for a life drawing class, where the feature of the paintings are their backsides.

Trinny says, "People's perception of their body and the reality is so different. Whenever we deal with women, and we're looking at their body, we ask them what they dislike and they will distort by half again the size of the area they don't like the most".

With their pink pod back on the road, the couple invite women to share their bottom woes with them. 'Saggy'; 'big and flat'; 'too wide'; and 'not what it used to be', seem to be the most common complaints from ladies who loathe their derriére.

But Trinny and Susannah believe the nation's women have been neglecting their bums, and in an attempt to cover up something they think is horrible, they're actually making it worse by dressing badly.

Can the straight-talking style experts can convince women to show off their revamped figures and truly love their behinds?
