Roland Mouret and Gap Join Forces

A line of ten dresses... from the man who created the Galaxy dress will put Gap in the running for plenty of cash come November 7, when they are due to go on sale in the UK and France.

New York Fashion Week: Jill Stuart
In Jill Stuart's collection floaty lace mini-dresses - some of them barely even there - proved that legs are again to see the light of day. The short length of the dresses is complimented well by their shape - giving the feeling of daintiness. Menswear was tailored but with a hint of attitude.

New York Fashion Week: Jovovich-Hawk
Romanticism was certainly the theme at Jovovich-Hawk, with pretty dresses a-plenty. The collection had a distinctly retro/vintage feel to it, emphasised by vintage hats and hairdos to match each era represented in the clothing.
