Gok will officially open the centre at 10:30am on the 30th May as part of the ten day celebrations during the opening period which begins when the doors open to the public on 21st May 2009.

The hugely popular style guru and national fashion icon made famous by TV shows such as How to Look Good Naked and Gok’s Fashion Fix, will take part in a photo call in the main Gloucester Quays Designer Outlet where he will declare the centre officially open.

Gok’s Fashion Fix is his latest television show currently being shown on Channel 4 and aims to help women make the most of less.

Whilst at Gloucester Quays Designer Outlet, Gok will also be giving three 30-minute VIP ‘audience with Gok’ sessions which are set to be hugely popular. Using models Gok will explain how best to achieve up to the minute looks with designer style at discounted prices through shopping at Gloucester Quays. Specially selected clothing and accessories from stores within the designer outlet will give audience members a chance to see exactly the kind of fabulous items on sale at Gloucester Quays and how they can really work their wardrobe without breaking the bank.

The sessions promise to be full of hints and tips for those looking to bag a bargain or dress to impress on a budget at Gloucester Quays and members of the audience will also be encouraged to take advantage of this exciting opportunity to ask questions in a Q&A session – giving them the rare opportunity of receiving dedicated advice first hand from Gok.

For those who miss out on the chance to be in one of the ‘audience with Gok’ sessions, Gok will also be taking part in a book signing in the outlet centre malls. Eager fashion followers can meet the star and have their copy of his legendary style books signed by him in person.

Gok Wan’s fashion advice is renowned as he transforms the ordinary in to the extraordinary, plain in to quirky, and basic in to stylish. His hugely successful show ‘How to Look Good Naked’ has made him a household name and his style books including ‘How to Look Good Naked’ and ‘How to Dress’ have been huge hits making his advice golden!

Franco Muccini, Centre Director said, “Gok Wan is extremely popular and has some fantastic fashion advice for savvy shoppers who won’t sacrifice on style despite the credit crunch. He is the perfect person to officially open the centre and demonstrate how shoppers on a budget can still achieve that fashionable look by shopping at Gloucester Quays”
