  • UK FASHION LOVERS MORE INTERESTED in NATIONAL CHOCOLATE WEEK THAN LONDON FASHION WEEK Submitted By: 10 Yetis PR and Marketing Tuesday, 16 September 2008
    UK FASHION LOVERS MORE INTERESTED IN NATIONAL CHOCOLATE WEEK THAN LONDON FASHION WEEK Submitted by: 10 Yetis PR and Marketing Tuesday, 16 September 2008 London Fashion Week may have already started with a huge fanfare but a leading celebrity fashion website has discovered that its own UK users are more interested in National Chocolate Week than they are the fashion event taking place in the Capital City. A leading celebrity fashion website has discovered that females aged between 18 and 30 are more interested in the UK’s National Chocolate Week than they are in this year’s London Fashion Week. Just below 3,700 people took part in the survey for MyCelebrityFashion which asked its fashion conscious users to select which UK “Week” they were interested in the most. National Chocolate Week received 62% of the vote, National Condom Week received 17% of votes and London Fashion Week got just 11% of votes. The rest of the votes were split between the National Chip, Curry and Vegetarian Week’s. 41% of people asked said the reason they were not interested was because of the high cost of the clothes on show and 36% said that they felt the ranges being shown were not relevant to every day fashion. Most worryingly for the future of the British fashion, 22% felt that it was only an event that the ultra-rich could now attend. Speaking about the results www.MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk Head Fashionista Jill Tovey said, “Whilst we at MyCelebrityFashion have been gearing up for London Fashion Week for some time, we thought it odd that not one of our thousands of users had mentioned it or were discussing it with our fashion conscious community”.

The UK’s leading independent celebrity fashion website, www.MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk, has today unveiled the launch of its new men’s section; dedicated to helping men attain the latest trends. Following the success of MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk’s female-orientated website, launched in 2008; the founders decided to create a similar section on the site dedicated specifically to the celebrity-style fashion of men. The male section will feature a new and improved design that is more user-friendly, having taken on the advice given in feedback from users. The new men’s website, accessible through the MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk homepage, will feature style tips and articles, as well as showing the latest male celebrity trends and where to buy them. In much the same way as its sister site, the men’s section will primarily enable users to ‘steal the style’ of their favourite celebrities with a unique ‘tagging’ system; pointing users towards the place to buy similar, or often the exact garment or accessory a star is wearing. The website features clothes from over 400 fashion retailers, and is updated hourly with new celebrity ‘looks’ and merchant products. Working on a ‘click through’ basis, the site generates sales by directing visitors to the merchant buying pages of any items that take their fancy.
