A WEST FIFE business labelled "too sexy" to operate in the Kingsgate centre has finally opened its new shop in Dunfermline six months later than planned.
Sexy Little Numbers owners Robert and Wilma Chrystal, who have run an online business for four years and spent months scouring the city for an alternative location, have settled on a site in Bridge Street.
In July they claimed in the Press that bosses at the Kingsgate centre thought their clothing was too racy, and their lease application was turned down after eight weeks of negotiations.
The new store was opened by Fife's 'High Street Honeys', Kirsty McDaid and Karly Ashworth.
Wilma said, "It's been an adventure but we've done everything ourselves and
we're finally open. It's absolutely brilliant.
"We should have been allowed to open in the Kingsgate but we're here now and we're very happy."
The shop sells different types of formal and party clothing and footwear and the couple will continue to trade from their website, sexylittlenumbers.co.uk.
Wilma said, 'We will be selling lines by Nom de Plume, Roma of Hollywood, Dreamgirl, Sexy Brazil, Precious Formals and many more. There will also be a range of jeans and tops from Paris.'

I have already shopped in your superb store , it is well layed out and the products are amazing. From what the owners of the kingsgate said i expected something like Ann Summers. you have a unique range of items and the kingsgate DID GET IT WORNG. i cannot immagine why on earth they did not allow such a fantastic company with a fantastic range. I have folowed your story in the press since the begining. all i can say to you wilma and robert. you have a stunning range a great service and one day you will have a whole chain of excelent stores.YOU ARE UNIQUE and the items i purchased are so amazing. good luck to you both and may your new store be very succesful xx
