It's official - our cleavage is more important to us than a visible panty line!

A poll conducted recently by Debenhams, a British department store, asked 3,000 of their customers about their fashion favourites. The push-up bra came up number 1, with almost 20 per cent of the vote. Other favourites were the boot cut jean (definitely flattering for most body shapes), the strapless bra and trainer socks.

Here is the top 20:

1. Push-up bra
2. Boot cut jeans
3. Pull-in pants
4. Stilettos
5. LBD (Little black dress)
6. Hipster jeans
7. Mini skirt
8. Strapless bra
9. Support tights
10. Kitten heels
11. Stockings
12. Sports bra
13. G-string
14. Flip flops (thongs for Aussie/NZ's)
15. Chicken fillets (the ones that go inside your bra!)
16. Pencil skirts
17. Hot pants
18. Boy-shorts
19. Trainer socks
20. Comfortable trainers

It's amazing, when you look over this list you realise how much we take for granted. There is no way our grandmothers would have been walking about with comfortable trainers and socks, their hipster jeans and a push-up bra! Trousers weren't even an acceptable option for women in the past.

Caroline Adams of Debenhams sums it up well. "Fashion items that can help create the perfect silhouette have become must-have items for women and there is no shame in faking the body beautiful." If it's available to us, why not feel good about ourselves. So girls, grab your push-up bras and your stilettos, and go get 'em!
