We didn’t think it was possible, but our obsession with all things interiors, combined with our celebration of the female form, has reached new heights. Anissa Kermiche's body vases may have started the trend - but those are officially so 2020. This year, if our Instagram feeds are anything to go by, is all about the body candle.

Candles have become about as necessary a part of any stylish home as a fluffy towel or good glassware. Especially in the colder, darker (not to mention lockdown) months, lighting a candle as dusk settles in creates a feeling of cosiness and homeliness as you settle in for the evening, especially if you go for one in a scent that you love. But they’re also the ultimate coffee table/ bedside/bathroom eye candy - and none are quite as delicious, as our edit of the best body shaped candles.

A quick search on Etsy reveals hundreds of different candles celebrating the female form. And the best part? They come in all shapes, sizes and skin tones, just like real women. Ranging from toned to curvy, even pregnant bodies are celebrated in the form of wax, to proudly display in your home. And for a change, getting in on this interiors trend won’t break the bank - with designs starting from as little as £3.50 (!!) on Etsy , it’s an inexpensive and quick way to update your homeware style.

Whether you're looking for a set of three naked chums (the dreamiest housewarming gift if you ask us), a relaxing lavender-scented candle or an oversized design (1.3kg to be exact) we've created an edit of all the best body candles to buy right now. Our round up also includes a few male torsos if you're tired of the gaze always falling on women and their bodies. Either way, this is an interiors trend that's not only seriously stylish but one that we love for its glorification of all bodies - because really, it's about time.
