Lily Allen Clothing Range Coming

Want to dress like British two-tone princess Lily Allen? You might not be the only one who wants her sense of style. New Look are counting on it.

In collaboration with New Look, Lilly will be behind a capsule collection called 'Lily Loves'.

The capsule will include 6 dresses and and is also expected to include footwear (no doubt trainers) and jewellery.

It'll be released in May.

Stella McCartney's Target Range Prices

Pricing information on Stella McCartney's exclusive range for Target Australia has emerged.

Stella McCartney for Target Australia

Stella McCartney is certainly a busy woman. With her own collections, and a number of capsules for other lines and stores including H&M, it has been revealed that the designer has created a 42 piece capsule for Target Australia.

Zac Posen's Fashion Rules

Described as having the "mastery of Christian Dior and Madame Vionnet" 26 year old designer would like to share some fashion tips with all men. Complimenting Sean Combs and having him as a financial backer might seem a little skewed, but there are still some ideas to be gleaned.

2. You should always carry a handkerchief. It's a courteous thing to have. If I'm out at night, I keep a handkerchief on hand for a lady.
5. Beautiful pyjamas are essential. The best are Sea Island cotton plaid ones from Turnbull & Asser.

Christopher Kane for Topshop

He wowed us with his super-bright, super-tight mini-dresses at the Spring 2007 collections (seen below). Now Christopher Kane is taking his designs to the masses via a capsule collection for Topshop.

H+M Off The Mark with Madonna

Apparently, Madonna will design a fashion range for H&M. The 'M by Madonna' range, we're told, will be released in March 2007.

The question is: how many people actually want to look like Madonna? And we're not talking Madonna in her hey-day, when she somehow managed to make dark eyebrows and bleached hair look fashion forward. We're talking about Madonna today. In recent times we've seen her all too often in tracksuit pants, doing freaky acrobatics in high-cut leotards and taking on the world one orphan at a time with those veiny Rocky-esque bicepts. Although the descriptions of Madonna as a style chameleon and successful cultural phenomenon can hardly be refuted, the question is more of her relevance to fashion today. Do the younger generations, who are the target audience of stores like H&M, want to dress like Madonna?

H&M have had some highly successful collaborations in the past with popular and well-regarded fashion designers. It would seem that Kate Moss being picked up by TopShop may just have rival retailers clambering for their own celebrity-named lines in response.


Move over Stella McCartney - that's what fashion's all about.

How To Wear: Gold

One of Autumn's biggest trends sees black and gold reunited in plush fabrics and decadent detail. Think deep black velvet and suede, gold threading and brocade. For something more suitable for daytime wear, opt for simple fabrics or demin set off by gold accessories. If you're on the sunny side of the world, you can easily pick the trend up and bring it into Summer mode, with pieces that will carry over to Autumn and Winter.

DO:
- Embroidery, beading and brocade
- Bold gold jewellery, like gold chains, solid gold cuffs, and gold belt buckles
- Gold leather accessories, like sexy high-heeled shoes, evening bags and soft leather belts
- Sparkle

She's back and She's Bold

Ann-Sofie Back shows off her boldest collection at London Fashion Week. After launching her own label in 2001, she has continuously succeeded in offering an alternative to other designers with her pieces being inspired by normality. This week is no exception with her line showing that the mundane can, indeed, be exciting.

Like Marajoara in their recent collection, this designer has used 'real women' in the past to promote her designs. The Swedish designer has not failed to impress, with reported new stocklists picking up her garments this season.
