Get ready for the body con trend and say no to smocks!

Since we've all been moaning about the lack of clothes with any sort of shape recently, I thought it was time for a reminder that there is a trend out there for those of you who want to show of your gym-honed physique (or just your fast metabolism). 'Body Con' stemmed mainly from London Fashion Week and designers like Giles Deacon (the dress in the middle is a stonking £2,260 at Net-a-Porter) and Christopher Kane, and it's slowly trickling down to the cooler corners of the high street. American Apparel is the best place to go for affordable single colour or colourblock designs like the £20 dress on the right, or for a bolder take on the look, slip your Agyness Deyn-esque bod into Bebe's striped offering for $79.
