It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when it happened, but at some stage trailers stopped being just for films. These days books have trailers, websites have trailers, magazine issues have trailers. This is by no means a complaint: it’s a trend born of the Internet, the ability to spread videos with viral ease, and they’re the perfect way to generate excitement and anticipation around any launch. …

Gone is the traditional English foundation, the tartan and lace; for spring 2012 McQ by Alexander McQueen is seemingly Texas bound.

Trash magazines get turned on by the thought of it: issues of their titles emblazoned with headlines such as ‘stars without their makeup.’ Oh, how they chortle. One week their covers are dedicated to celebrities who diet too much, and the next week they mock anyone who they haven’t been able to previously lampoon by focussing on the fact that they’re ageing – shock horror …
