Hi Bibblebub,
Thanks for your "provocative" answer but I've checked various dictionaries but no mention of provocative as meaning desirable... any futher help ?
Thanks... J/Boy

when someone dresses provocatively it's usually to make themselves desireable

exciting sexual desire http://www.thefreedictionary.com/provocative

Thanks bibblebub, just needed to be 100% sure before posting it off.
Many thanks...

since the only other common word that fits those letters is gravitative then it's a fairly safe bet that it must be the answer

Hi Bibblebub,
Sorry I did not get back to you... after you explained the "dress" slant then you were 100% correct and as you said the only other common word which would fit is Gravitative.
Thanks for illuminating my darkness...
