Pretty Little Thing releases Zoom backgrounds to make your next virtual hangout ultra glam

Fashion retailer Pretty Little Thing has released its own range of super-glam, ultra-girly virtual backgrounds.

The collection, shared for free on their website, features unicorns, flamingoes, glitter, flowers, and basically anything that's pink.

It's ideal for all the birthdays, hen dos and baby showers that we're all having to celebrate in a virtual setting, rather than being together for the time being.

You could also use the backgrounds to liven up a work call, or to make your weekly family quiz night a little more lavish.

The retail giant has also added pictures of its own HQ to be used as backgrounds, including a huge walk-in wardrobe of dresses and shoes.

There's also a pink flower wall packed with rose petals to help you pretend you're at an exclusive launch party.

Pretty Little Thing has also created a few mood board backgrounds, packed with neon, fashion, make-up and glitter.

It's not the first brand to jump on the Zoom background bandwagon - Ikea also shared its own freebies earlier this month so that we can all fake our way to a more stylish home office.

You can download Pretty Little Thing's virtual backgrounds at blog.prettylittlething.com.

To set a virtual background on Zoom, simply head to Settings in the Zoom homepage, and go to the Virtual Background tab.

Upload your preferred backdrop and set it as your new background.

It works best when you have a plain surface behind you that contrasts with your skin and hair (green screen is best but you can usually improvise at home using curtains or similar).
