Zip Jewellery by Kate Cusack

Zip in English or fecho-eclair in Portuguese. The zip was an invention that revolutionised the ready-to-wear world; it's as useful as paper clips. Both are designer items, useful and in our day to day life and we don't give then its true value. But now we have Kate Cusack, a jewellery designer that lives in Brooklyn. She wants to show the world the potential of the zip. She designs necklaces and pins using zips to do it. She creates unique articles that are full of imagination and are very sophisticated. When she is working she pays special attention to materials, colours and textures. The result is very unique.

First look at Sienna Miller's fashion line

Fashion capsules created by celebrities, be they Kate Moss or Lily Allen, are certainly de jour right now. However, Sienna Miller has seemingly one-upped everyone with her own label - twenty8twelve. The label, its name taken from Sienna's birth date, is a collaboration between the model-cum-actress and her sister Savannah.

Despite having been on the cards for almost a year now, the label is backed by Carlos Ortega (owner Pepe Jeans), only one picture has emerged to date;

Samantha Tracey Fall 07

We've been having some great discussion in our forum about over the knee socks, including Tania's recent blog post about the emerging trend. Today the amazing collection from Samantha Treacy came to my attention and I just had to share.

New Designer for Target - Announcement Soon

We have all seen the excitement generated when big names choose to do capsules for big brands, and it's no different when Target picks their designers and brings affordability of high end couture to the general public. Who could forget the buzz surrounding the Stella McCartney for Target capsule?

Has Kate Moss for TopShop sold out?

Miss-En-Scene - Shoes by Coq.Luxe

Sara Rochas and Ines Golcalves are sisters and the designers behind Coq.Luxe, a new Portuguese brand of shoes. Coq.Luxe started as a conversation between the two sisters at the table of a cafe, from where it jumped to the red carpet, as they say, referring to the Storytailors fashion show in Paris, last January. For this event they created exclusive shoes.

Coq.Luxe was born mainly because, shoe addicts as they are, they need to find a solution for a very serious problem. Sara and Ines needed to know how they could manage their salary in order to feed the shoe addiction. The solution was... working with the items that gave them pleasure. So Coq.Luxe was born.

After getting the attention of a factory in the north of Portugal, Helsar, the first collection came to the world, this Spring. It's inspired in the Cinema Divas, the Miss-En-Scene collection presents nine high heels platform pair of shoes.

At this time, the next collection is ready to hit the stores, the second of two Portuguese designers that want to make Coq.Luxe a Five Star brand.

Their website will be up soon at www.coqluxe.com.

Stella McCartney for Notify Jeans

Having designed a collection for Target Australia, fashion designer Stella McCartney will reputedly next put her name to a line for Paris-based premium denim label Notify Jeans.

Still a rumour at this stage, if it goes ahead expect to see it as a part of Notify Jeans' Summer 2008 collection.

Kate Moss on your fashion

Hypermodel Kate Moss could probably create a fashion trend out of a plastic bag, but with the Kate Moss for Topshop capsule hitting stores in May it's going to be a heck of a lot easier to dress like her.

But what if you're looking to honour Moss without actually cloning her look? Instead, turn to the number of brands capturing Moss' look (her face, nose, eyes, and amazing cheek bones) as prints on their clothing.

These two tops, both featuring a print of Moss, are from Swedish/Parisian designers Burfitt. And they're not the first to channel the model in this way, we've seen her face featured on everything from underwear to jewellery.
