Caprice - style tips, beach and underwear collections

May 21st 2008

Hey OSOYOU users,

At OSOTowers we've been catching up with the lovely lingerie entrepreneur, Caprice. Busy promoting her By Caprice Lingerie and By Caprice Swimwear, she's been getting her hands dirty visiting shows and selecting fabrics to use for her new range. Hey, when all a girl wants to do is lie on a yacht in St Tropez sipping cocktails, she's got to work hard to get there! Luckily, she still had time to impart a few hot style tips in between all the whizzing around. Check them out below.

What are your top style tips?

"I love bright, bold colours. Too much is not enough. Bright greens and fuschia pinks. Lots of spots and hearts and shapes."

What are you tips on buying underwear?

"I really want to cater for all sizes and I think my collection has been successful with that. I think that knickers that are higher on the sides are great for making the legs look longer. Bras should be more conservative but still fun and flirty."

Who are your favourite high street stores?

I love Zara, as the cuts are great and really well made. I can't believe the prices and they compete really well with designer stuff.

What are your tips for the summer?

I love maxi dresses and the whole BoBo look, mixing glam with gypsy. You can either dress it down with flats or up with heels or wedges. Short is in this Summer. It's all about the legs.

What are your must-haves for the beach?

In Caprice Swimwear we have really cute towelling dresses with hoods and big hearts on the sides. Bold, bright coloured kaftans with bright colours are great for covering up in. Stomach necklaces are a fab accessory.

And finally who are your style icons?

Jackie O, Audrey Hepburn and I love Cate Blanchett, she epitomises old school glamour.
