Birmingham Style Live 2010

Im posting this abit late, but better late then never.
I was lucky enough to work behind stage at Birmingham style live for the second year running this year. For you who dont know, Birmingham Style Live is basically like Birmingham's Fashion week where they host a main fashion show and other fashion related events around the town centre. It T'was Myself, my friend Simon and the rest of my buddies from Matthew Boulton Fashion Lab, We were model dresses and although sometimes extremely stressful i loved it, as i always do.
When u watch a fashion show and the models come out all composed and looking immaculate you dont realise that as soon as they come off stage their running around trying to get the next garment on in time for their next time slot. As 'glamorous' as working at a fashion show might sound, its not. Sorry to ruin the illusion.
But it was good fun...
OH CRAP! i nearly forgot! Every year they have celebrities to either preform or to host the show. Last year it was the lovely Emma Willis hosting and the beautiful Mr Hudson preforming. But this year i was in all. My mouth dropped and my eye widened when i met this years host, the beautiful, stylish George Lamb!
He was by far the best part of the show, besides the garments obviously. Doing six one hour shows all day wasnt so bad when u had George back stage talking with everyone. You may be aching all over for the next four days but its well worth doing.
Now to make you all jealous, me and georgie.

The ever changing face of British Vogue.

In 2026 we will be celebrating 100 years of VOGUE! Amazing!
I can hardly imagine a magazine as popular as it is being around for so long.
The latest vogue shows Cheryl Coles picture on the front looking all glamorous and polished. And although VOGUE has always been the fabulous fashion magazine it is today its faces have changed alot over the years.
Lets have a look and see...

Burberry's Theatre?

Burberry has a new retail theatre concept in which customers are able to buy live from the Spring/Summer 2011 Show. Now, when i first read this i was slightly pessimistic. Im not entirely sure why, it just sounded quite odd. But the more i think about it, its probably a good idea.
"We are really excited to be launching Burberry Retail Theatre enabling the first ever live simultaneous virtual trunk shows in our stores globally," Said the label's chief creative officer Christopher Bailey."This concept allows us to broadcast our multi faceted content all over the world, directly to our stores, creating a modern and pure brand environment. Customers at the exclusive in-store digital events will experience the clothes, the music, the energy and the atmosphere in real time and have the unique opportunity to receive their orders in just seven weeks."
The new retail theatre will broadcast the label spring/summer 2011 show directly into 25 worldwide flagship stores on September 21. Following the private viewing, customers will be able to browse the collection on iPads where they can buy pieces directly. - Modern technology ay!
