<p>Gok Wan has defended Helena Bonham Carter&#8217;s quirky dress sense, describing her as the &#8220;female equivalent&#8221; of Johnny Depp.</p>
<p>With the eyes of the world set to be on The King&#8217;s Speech star at Sunday&#8217;s Oscars, the stylist and How To Look Good Naked presenter said he was confident the best supporting actress nominee could work the red carpet with aplomb.</p>
<p>&#8220;She&#8217;s quite eclectic, she wears clothes that suits her, that she wants to wear, that she feels are expressing herself. So as far as I&#8217;m concerned she&#8217;s doing it right, because she&#8217;s doing it for herself and no one else and that&#8217;s really what your own style should be,&#8221; Gok said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Helena Bonham Carter&#8217;s kind of up there with Johnny Depp, she&#8217;s almost the female equivalent.&#8221;</p>
<p>Gok said he was looking forward to watching the star-studded ceremony.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s all a bit like fashion sport for me. I&#8217;ve worked the Oscars a few times and given it a live commentary. This year I won&#8217;t be working it but I&#8217;ll be doing my research at home,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>The busy fashion guru has also just launched his own range of specially designed retro glasses for Specsavers &#8211; and revealed he feels naked without his signature frames.</p>
<p>&#8220;The few times I take my glasses off and put contact lenses in I just hate it. I lose my confidence, I feel that I&#8217;m very exposed, I feel really vulnerable, and I really enjoy wearing them,&#8221; Gok said.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think glasses are really sexy, they spell out a beautiful narrative about who you are&#8230; if you don&#8217;t love the glasses you&#8217;re wearing, you may as well be wearing a pair of suede moccasins as far as I&#8217;m concerned.&#8221;</p>
<p>:: GW by Gok Wan is available now in Specsavers stores throughout the UK and Ireland.</p>
