How to Look Good Naked is a television programme, first aired on British Channell 4 in 2006, in which fashion stylist Gok Wan encourages women who are insecure with their bodies to strip nude for the camera. The programme is unique among other similar makeover shows in that it never encourages participants to undergo cosmetic surgery or lose weight.
Format
The format of the show is based on the self esteem building exercises that Wan guides the woman though. These include:
- Driving around in a van with a picture of the woman in question semi-nude on the side, asking passers-by what they think. The response shown is positive, thus building the self esteem of the woman.
- Wan burns the woman's underwear, replacing it with more flattering items, including 'tummy tuck pants'.
- The woman is photographed naked.
- In the emotive finale, the woman parades down the catwalk with her new look in front of family and friends.
Catchphrases
Wan's favourite and most famous catchphrases include 'bangers', which is his pet-name for women's breasts, and 'gorgeous!'
Series
The third series of How to Look Good Naked began in late 2007.
Versions in other countries
The U.S. version of How to Look Good Naked airs on Lifetime Television, and is hosted by Carson Kressley.
