When you go on the internet, there is a lot of sensationalising of p... Read Full Story

There is a world epidemic of obesity and there is no sign of it abating. My personal view in this cites the food industry introducing various synthetic organic and non-organic chemicals.Many of these chemicals are better known for causing weight loss at high levels of exposure but much lower concentrations of these same chemicals have powerful weight-promoting actions.This property has already been widely exploited commercially to produce growth hormones that fatten livestock and pharmaceutic...

I have recently been to the Clothes Show London ExCel, where the feedback was overwhelmingly in favour of plus size women. We had on display a lot of Boutique clothing which in description are one off designs, contemporary classics with a “twist”. Many of the clothing were sparkling with Swarovski stones that added glamour to our outfits. Many women visited and all they could see was size 12 – 14. The answers we got after a fairly long browse was “do you have this in larger sizes”, you kn... Read Full Story

I am amazed at the state of the Haberdashery industry in this country. We encourage young discerning talented students to hone their new skills in the art of fashion design.By the time they graduate and move on to do their own thing, they struggle to obtain the very materials that they require to show case the talent they have through their designs. It’s hard to buy exactly what you are looking for, and therefore forced to re-adjust and buy what is available?Zip yellow, not in stock? Diamante... Read Full Story
