'If you like oversized, relaxed fits, you should pop to Monki. Their sizes are very generous and work for all body types!'

'Don't be afraid of your dress size. Remember, it's just a number and you are not defined by it. Your size will be different in all shops, just try everything on.'

'Print works on curves, it works on ALL body types. If you like it, wear it.'

'Last but not least, be YOU. Wear what you want to wear and don't listen to anyone who calls you a pear or an apple. You might look fresh and fruity but you are all WOMAN.'
