There's a warning about a new celebrity trend to try to get a slimmer waist after having a baby.

Jessica Alba and Kim Kardashian are among those who are using waist training to change their body shape.

Kanika Townsend runs an online store called Coke Bottle Cartel based in Birmingham selling the garments and says there are a lot of misconceptions.
