Fashion Capital Newswire – 04th April 2007

Hanging it all together for the fashion industry







NEWSLETTER  

 

 


Hello All,


 


 


There aren’t many students that can say they’ve had their college designs stocked in a major department store but for the winning designs from the Kingston College 60s inspired t-shirt project this will be the exceptional case. On the 18th April Judy Cimdins (Head of Buying Womenswear), Vikki Kavenah (Buyer of Urban Lounge) and Vanessa Frances (Head of Marketing) will be taking a look at the student’s designs. The winning pieces will be available to buy in the Urban Lounge at Bentalls in Kingston. The students have really grafted over the project which combines design with commerciality.


 



 


More on the winning designs in the coming weeks…


 



 


 


 


Pick of the Week at Enter-Boutique


 


Ex-Atomic Kitten vocalist, Liz McClarnon, certainly turned a few heads as she performed at G-A-Y wearing British fashion label Fanni Ann. The bustle hot pants and waistcoat combo proved to be naughty but nice when she sexed-up the outfit with knee high boots and a pink satin blouse. She later split the outfit up and wore the waistcoat for an appearance on the lunchtime show Loose Women. Stocked at Enter Boutique in Centrale, Croydon, Fanni Ann has been keeping those cash tills ringing. The hot pants are £46 and the waistcoat is £68 and are available in toffee and pink stripe or chocolate and lilac stripe.
