I love buying underwear because it’s just for me, I don’t show all and sundry my pants so I can pick whatever colour or style I want. Laura Brooks, a London based designer, makes underwear primarily for the wearer with a tiny bow hidden on the inside and pretty linings. She uses gorgeous fabrics such […]

We have been following the drama surrounding the closure of the Welsh arm of Burberry since September last year and today the Treorchy factory in Southern Wales will sadly close its doors for good.

The fash pack are always eager to pigeonhole us into stereotypes, and Grazia’s recent ‘North vs South’ article really got my goat (and yours, by the looks of things) for its generalised attitude to girls across the country. Snapping five fashion industry insiders in London is hardly a good cross-section of what the […]

On Catwalk Queen we love the high street, but we know as well as anyone that a wardrobe cannot be made of chain store clothing alone. I’ve picked out my top ten vintage websites for those girls who want the retro look but don’t have the time to go rifling through car boots and charity […]

It’s an overpriced outdated boho nightmare […]

The rumour-mill is in full swing again, this time with reports that Liz Hurley has been dropped as the face of Monsoon for being, of all things, too old and “too mumsy.” Are they having a laugh? The new Mrs Nayer is probably the last woman on the planet guilty of being too old and […]

A survey conducted by New Woman came up with a statistic that 6 out of 10 women think that size zero is attractive. Other results from the Body Idol survey for the British magazine found that 97% of the women believe that size 12 is fat and and 58% apparently think that men find size […]

Apparently we copy fashion trends set by the likes of Kate Moss and David Beckham because their style is ever-changing. Well… duh! Talk about stating the bleeding obvious. According to new research, the masses (i.e. us) are quick to imitate these people to satisfy our desire for change. By constantly reinventing their image, stars like […]

To celebrate the 45th anniversary of the label Valentino he is hosting a three-day bash starting on the 6th of July. His festivities have pushed the July couture shows, Milan men’s fashion week and the Paris men’s shows. By all accounts it sounds like the calendar reshuffling will be worth it, Giancarlo Giammetti announced at […]
