The YMX brand uses original tattoo art as inspiration for its collection - but it's the careful positioning of the designs so that they fall or wrap perfectly around the body and the high-clarity printing onto a smooth-as-silk high performance fabric that really gives its garments an edge. The tops look lovely enough in their wrappings, but it's once on that they really come alive. Minx expects marriage proposals prompted by the wearing of YMX and looks forward to multiple hat-buying opportunities.

The fabric is light with a smooth handle - it sound clingy but actually it hangs in a very flattering way, and for all that it feels gorgeous enough to party, it doesn't shrink from serious wicking duty. The cut is athletically slim, if you're nudging the margins of your size upwards or prefer a looser fit then go for the next size up.

The skimp is possibly the most fabulous of all the iterations of YMX designs as it's made of two layers. The base is the same smooth, high performance fabric as the jerseys and that has one part of the design. This is overlaid by a fine mesh, which incorporates another section of print. It was designed as a pretty yoga or after-the-gym layer but Minx is going to throw this over leggings for nights out and no one will know that being exercise-appropriate was her first priority when she got dressed.

Minx likes: utterly pretty, but in the coolest possible way.
