Giles Deacon up and left London Fashion Week last season while everyone else was heading in the opposite direction. Thanks to his ANDAM award, he had the opportunity to show in Paris, he did, and now he's not coming back to London. As if you could say no to Paris.

Frost French, Sadie Frost and Jemima French's contemporary clothing line, want Gemma Ward for an ad campaign. But they want her now, at this weight. Not later, when she's lost it, or when she decides to get back into modeling. They want a real girl, albeit a really, really, ridiculously good-looking girl, to be the face of their brand. It sounds like the cherry atop their rebirth sundae. After suffering...

Back in September, in the midst of London Fashion Week, something quite exciting happened. Infact, naturally during Fashion Week there were multiple moments worthy of girlish grinning but the personal relevance of this event made it all the more lovely. Following the buzz of the Topshop Unique show I decamped to my Aunt's flat for a chilled evening of worthy salad and cups of peppermint tea (any of...

One of those brands whose samples I always relished trying on and requesting for work, because the adorable girly shapes and frou frou fabrics created a sense of romance on the bleakest of days.
