Zoe Cobden

Gok meets Zoe Cobden, a 27-year-old London girl and a fine figure of a woman, but like most females she just can’t see it. She hates her size 12 body so much that she tries to make herself invisible by wearing clothes as camouflage. And although she hates her whole body, it’s her love handles that are simply too much to handle. It’s Gok’s mission to give Zoe the style and confidence to work her body and to show her how to dress it. And he's not holding back this week - ‘You look 104 years old and like you’re going camping,’ he says, berating her for beige attire. And when he slips her into a bustier and pencil skirt combo he says, ‘Now it’s more Monaco and less Streatham.’ Zoe has officially been Gok’d. But will she look good naked?
