With a touch of glamour, gutsy humor, and an overwhelming desire to improve their lot in life, four women strive for happiness and fulfillment. In early 1980s England, Steph, Pauline, Nita and Dawn wrestle with the pressures of family, husbands and making ends meet. However, a chance meeting between Steph and Nita is destined to kick-start a transformation for them all as they grasp the opportunity to become Ann Summers (lingerie and sex toy) party organizers.
