    50% Off Sale at Very.co.uk

    One of the biggest sales to hit the online retail market this year is at very.co.uk. Very.co.uk is an online department store that sells everything from pots and pans to wedding dresses, and it operates just as any land based department store would be expected to do. It has rolled out its January sale over the last few days, to make the festive shopping period a bit easier for customers to deal with. The 50% off sale covers every department on the very.co.uk site, and means massive bargains for the large majority of customers.

    In terms of women’s clothing, there is something for everyone on very.co.uk. All the stock, because the site is a department store, comes from either designers or high street brands. This means that in terms of pricing there is a very wide range, from very cheap to more expensive for designer pieces. However much the customer is willing to spend, they will be able to do so with the amount of variety on very.co.uk.

    In terms of which designers are available, pieces by Amanda Wakeley seem to be a very popular feature of the site. For younger shoppers, television presenters Holly Willoughby and Fearne Cotton also have clothing ranges that are well represented on the site. Fearne Cotton is famous for her edgy rock style, and this feeling comes across in the kinds of clothes that are available. In complete contrast, Holly Willoughby has designed a range of pretty party dresses, all in her trademark prom style. Girly evening dresses are what Holly Willoughby usually wears to present her primetime shows, and these are what she has designed. These dresses are all in the sale, and the prices on them have been drastically cut. One dress is down to £19 from £35, and another is down to £34 from £85.

    Alternative Fashion Week: An Interesting Alternative

    If the London Fashion Week is more formal, with more ready-to-wear collections being introduced by international as well as local designers, the Alternative Fashion Week is a bit more casual and open minded. The next Alternative Fashion Week will be held from 19 to 23 April 2010 in Spitalfields, London. The good news is, you don’t even need an invitation or a ticket to attend the show. Simply be at the venue and be amazed.

    Alternative Fashion Week is known to be the media for designers to show contemporary designs. Some of the designs you will see here may be influential in the future; some may even look odd at first, but the concept of this event is to give freedom and chance to younger designers to express themselves freely so such creativity is to be expected.

    Alternative Fashion Week also raises issues such as environment protection and human rights to the surface. You will not find regular professional models ruling the runway; even you can participate as a runway model at the Alternative Fashion Week.
