Sleep while you fly: Burton's Sleeper HoodieIt's not something I'd wear out on the street, but the Sleeper Hoody from Burton looks like it could help improve the quality of my next long-haul flight.
Seemingly Burton's answer to the 'bat-belt' this hoody features pockets for your tickets, passport, and iPod (naturally), and also touts an earplug compartment, a eye-mask to block out other the light (always great for avoiding jet-lag), and a built in neck pillow. Source: Engadget One dress that suits all figuresIt's a bit of a claim, but the Telegraph believe they have found a dress (or style of dress) even better than the Roland Mouret's creations... the smock. Admittedly, the smock doesn't sound anywhere near as impressive but Clare Coulson, writing for the Telegraph, has said it's out there for all women to enjoy.
Stella McCartney for Target AustraliaStella 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 RulesDescribed as having the "mastery of Christian Dior and Madame Vionnet" 26 year old designer would like to share some fashion tips with all men.
