The Post-Fashion Week Fashion News from London

alexander mcqueen and beth ditto mix.jpgYesterday, somewhere in the UK, someone got the last copy of LOVE - That’s right, 67,000 copies have been distributed and sold, making the new glossy one of the fastest selling debut magazines ever.

So with all these people having a naked Beth Ditto on their coffee tables, it’s become the obvious time to launch her clothing range for Evans, that part of the Arcadia group owned by Sir Philip Green which has been described as the Topshop for the “bigger lady”.

Well today I can reveal the collection may be coming sooner than we all thought: I have word that the campaign is being shot in the next couple of weeks and the collection will be in stores late March / early April.

More details to follow from the shoot.

Lovely caftan (or is it a djellaba? anyhoo...). Anyone know the designer, or do we think it's vintage? I have a wedding in St. Martin coming up!

Agree with Hayley, the shelves of Borders are chock-ful of LOVE. I was there today too. Don't believe the hype!

Uh I'm going to call BULLSHIT on this one. 70,000 copies of a random fash mag sell out in 3 days? Come on now. Lovely PR placement for Mandi Lennard but we're not stupid. LOVE is all over stores in the UK

Its about time the fashion industry stopped making me feel terrible for not being grossed out by fat people. Fat people are not disgusting, or subhuman, or poor. They just people. Sometimes, like Beth, they're pretty people!

#13: Who says its the fashion industry?
Being fat can be unhealthy too, therefore people can be averse to it...

1. Love is still available everywhere in the UK.
2. Evans is nothing like Topshop.

Are you secretly working for love magazine or something, there are lots of copies left in the UK. And Evans is soooo not like topshop in the slightest.
