Clothes Show Live 2006, presented
by Nokia, is delighted to announce the collaboration of three top models to front
the largest Fashion and Beauty event in the World. Lisa Ratliffe, Hannah Shaw
and Erin Fee are returning to the show where they were first scouted, having since
launched hugely successful international modelling careers.
Together the girls represent three generations
of modelling success at Clothes Show Live. Lisa Ratliffe was spotted in 1998 and
has spent the last 8 years working for some of the most sought-after and high
profile fashion brands in the world, including Calvin Klein, YSL, Nina Ricci,
Burberry and Alberta Ferretti. Hannah Shaw was discovered just 4 years ago but
returns to the show with a wealth of international modelling experience, including
fronting campaigns for Benetton, Remington, Hugo Boss and Dolce and Gabanna. Erin
Fee, the youngest and newest to the modelling world, was spotted only last year,
but returns to the show after just one season, working on campaigns for DKNY and
Cacharel.
Working with the three girls on
the PR and advertising campaign for this year's show is acclaimed British fashion
designer Tristan Webber. Tristan Webber's sharp, modern style was used to create
a look that reflects the fresh, stylish feel of this year's show, whilst capturing
the sassy yet individual styles of Lisa, Hannah and Erin.
Tristan comments;
"I am delighted
to be involved with Clothes Show Live. It is a must-attend event for any follower
of fashion who wants to be one step ahead in the style world. I have thoroughly
enjoyed contributing my latest collection for the shoot, it has been a great opportunity
to be able to demonstrate how designer looks can be adapted to work on the high
street, which is exactly what Clothes Show Live is all about; making high fashion
fun and accessible to everyone."
Tristan
will be making an appearance at the show in December, alongside each of the models
who will open this year's show on Wednesday December 1st. All three girls are
delighted to be returning to the show this year. Lisa Ratliffe comments:
"We
are all absolutely thrilled to be fronting such a high-profile, successful fashion
event. Not only is it a fantastic opportunity for us, but also a chance to re-visit
and support the show that really did change each of our lives. Clothes Show Live
will always be special to all of us, we come every year to support the show and
as well as launching the show this year I intend to make time for some serious
shopping!"
Clothes Show Live is the
world's largest Fashion and Beauty event in the calendar and this year's show
will be no exception. Keen to rival the success of last year's show Clothes Show
Live 2006 will be bigger and better than ever before, showcasing the very latest
collections, high street brands, vintage gear, boutique labels, non stop catwalk
shows, make-overs, style tips, celebrities, model scouts, music and much more.
Clothes
Show Live 2006 will run from the 1st to the 6th December, 2005. Tickets are now
on sale and can be ordered by phone (Box Office - 0870 380 2288), or online at

BMI
is the buzz word of the moment and the number 18 seemes to be attached to it.
No, it is not a new label but the resulting voluntary regulations after the storm
that started in Madrid.
Madrid fashion
week will be known not only for fashion this year but, also the epicenter of the
'Waif War'. The Spanish Association of Fashion Designers has decided to ban all
models with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of less than 18. Recommended
Body Mass index is between 18.5 and 25. | |
