How does a design idea become reality? Start with a sketch, of course. We examine original drawings from some of the world's greatest designers, that could be termed works of art in themselves.

The shop at 2 Marshall Street in Soho is something of an Aladdin's Cave, the headless mannequins in the window the sharpest-dressed sentries you'll fi...

My favourite colour is green. I have spent the best part of four years collecting - not entirely on purpose - exquisite green items.

Wow! It's so warm I'm wearing a summery blouse today! Looks like we finally got our first glimpse of Spring...so in the spirit of that, I'm wearing a flowy bird and floral print long blouse.

I have no time for chunky, plain ugly 'practical' shoes. Why be practical when you can have vertiginous, pointy, platformed, lovelies at the end of your legs?

Simple, solid, classic colours- you can't go wrong with this combination no matter how you throw it together. Today I'm wearing one of my go-to simple grey jumpers, vintage gilet, black jeans, classic bag, and plum coloured heels to add a bit of colour. I've matched the gold soles with the gold hardware on the bag which subtly pulls the outfit together nicely.

The Spring Summer 2013 bag collections during Milan Fashion Week were all about light-- through color, illumination, and weight.

Synonymous with glitz, glamour and decadence, the Roaring Twenties are the perfect antidote to modern day minimalism and the recession. Recent season...

What do the words 'mens fashion' conjure in your mind? A Dalston boundary-breaker, drowning everything they own in pleather and studs or the next big thing in the fashion world?

Would you spend £7,650 on a bike made by Gucci?...

Hair and make up trends sneak in to our bedrooms sometimes without us even realising. Look at a photo of yourself from the 80s or 90s, even the early noughties. See what I mean? So we're all effected by fashion, ie the "tops and bottoms".

It feels like we've only just recovered from London, but fashion waits for no one: the Milan shows are already well underway....

So ladies... fancy staying on trend with this alluring new autumn look? It's actually really easy to achieve and can be adapted to all skin tones and ages. Here's how to do it - think Ingrid Bergman, Casablanca, 2012.

It's official. Madonna's got a new red carpet style obsession: statement sunglasses. The 53-year-old was the star attraction in her shades at the Gucc...
