Kate Moss Set To Exit Topshop

I'd of thought Kate Moss would have been a long term appointment at Topshop, but before we know it, after three years (which is actually fairly good) she is to put an end to her collaboration with major high street retailer.

Kate Moss for Topshop's last collection - her 14th range will be on sale in October. She began her partnership with the chain following her friendship with billionaire Sir Philip Green. Nothing but 'other commitments' for Moss has ended her deal according to Sir Philip.

It doesn't seem too long ago when Moss launched her very first range where thousands queued to get their hands on the supermodel's designs to achieve the model look. However, during the few years, the collections have been a huge hit with consumers where Moss is reported to have pocketed at least £3M from sales. A successful appointment for Topshop at least anyway since collaborations come and go quickly at the Arcadia retailer.

Miss Selfridge for Gossip Girl - Collection Revealed!

The time has finally come girls! On 15 April, the Miss Selfridge for Gossip Girl collection was finally revealed, and isn't it typical that I just want everything!

The gorgeous and on-trend eight piece collection in the style of the four leading ladies from the American TV series form the UK's first official Gossip Girl collection - inspired by the designs of the TV series costume designer Eric Daman.

In the style of Serena van der Woodsen...


In the style of Blair Waldorf...(My fav combo)


In the style of Vanessa Abrams...


In the style of Jenny Humphrey...


Whether it's the Serena sleek body con bandage dress, Blair's feminine ruffle front shift floral dress, Vanessa inspired leopard print elegant maxi or Jenny's cute lace tutu dress - you can fall into your character with prices starting from an affordable £39.

Speaking of the collaboration, Creative Director Yasmin Yusuf says, 'we are delighted to be working with the Warner Bros. TV series, Gossip Girl. The dresses we've created based on the characters fit perfectly with our spring/summer 2010 range. Our customers love the show and the styles of the girls so the partnership is a perfect match', and quite rightly so!

The launch saw a fantastic atmosphere, with a hint of New York vibe. The dresses were a huge hit as the event saw press and bloggers flock to Arcadia HQ, and not to forget a special guest appearance!, yes that's right, the much loved Chace Crawford arrived to view what inspirations the girls have injected into the collection.


All of this coming to one of our favourite high street fashion retailers on 30 April, but if you can't wait to get your hands on a piece or two, then visit www.missselfridge.com from 27 April.

XOXO
