Kelly in Glasses (specs)




Kelly Brook's famously curvy figure will be on display in 3D this summer with the big screen remake of horror movie Piranha, but she still looks pretty good in 2D, as these pictures prove.

The 30-year-old features in an all-in-one PVC catsuit and wearing only a mac and stilettos in a stunning shoot for SpecSavers.

The opticians wanted our attention - and let's face it, they've got it - to announce the launch of the annual campaign to find the Spectacle Wearer Of The Year.

Making a spectacle of herself: Kelly Brook puts everything into the SpecSavers' campaign.

SpecSavers want to find members of the public who look fantastic in glasses, whether to improve their eyesight or simply for fashion purposes.

The company will work in conjunction with Storm model agency in city centres this summer to try and track down the men and women, or boys and girls, with the right look.

Regional stars will earn a place on the catwalk at London Victoria & Albert Museum on November 10, with the winner receiving a one-year modelling contract with Storm and a range of prizes.

Brook says she has worn glasses for fashion since she was a teenager and claims she fancies rugby-playing boyfriend Danny Cipriani, 22, more in specs.

Kelly says: ‘I have always been envious of people who wear glasses! I see glasses very much as a fashion accessory and a way to stamp my own style. I have a fantastic pair that I found in a vintage store in London. Danny and I fight over who is going to wear them and I have to admit he looks really cute in them.’

As well as fronting the campaign, Kelly is supporting anti-bullying charity Kidscape. Specsavers will donate £1 for every eligible competition entry to the charity, as well as all proceeds from a high profile auction led by Specsavers ambassador Gok Wan, which will take place at the competition final

Kelly adds: ‘I am really excited about my involvement with this year’s Spectacle Wearer of the Year competition and the chance to promote glasses, not just as an optical necessity, but as a fashion accessory.

‘I have often thought that wearing glasses on the red carpet would make a fantastic statement, perhaps some really elegant jewelled frames with a full length evening dress. I also love men in glasses. There’s certain people you can’t imagine without them, like Alan Carr and Chris Evans, whose glasses have become their trademark and established geek chic firmly on the fashion agenda.’

Specsavers founder, Dame Mary Perkins, says: ‘It’s great to have Kelly on board this year as she is a popular specs-wearing role model for kids across the UK. The fact that she wears glasses loud and proud as a fashion accessory makes her the perfect choice to launch our nationwide search.

Entries can be made by visiting any Specsavers store or by logging on to www.specsavers.co.uk. Or check out the special Facebook site www.facebook.com/SpectacleWearerOfTheYear. The closing date for entries is Saturday, July 31.
