Injection of Diesel to drive Viktor & Rolf around globe
<p>The timing couldn't be more perfect. Just as the Dutch design pairing, Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren, are wowing London with a show featuring probably the world's most glamorous doll's house at the Barbican Art Gallery, it was announced that they have sold a majority shareholding in their company to Renzo Rosso, owner and founder of Diesel and the aptly named holding company, Only The Brave (OTB).</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/181222f/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/news/injection-of-diesel-to-drive-viktor--rolf-around-globe-874866.html&link=Injection of Diesel to drive Viktor & Rolf around globe" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/news/injection-of-diesel-to-drive-viktor--rolf-around-globe-874866.html&link=Injection of Diesel to drive Viktor & Rolf around globe" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833485323/f/3803/c/266/s/25240111/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833485323/f/3803/c/266/s/25240111/a2.img" border="0"/></a>

Pump up the volume: How did Vans become a global shoe brand?
<p>Steve Van Doren admits that he owes his company's success, in part, to a lucky break. Twenty-five years ago, some bored high-school kid started drawing lines on his canvas, rubber-soled shoes and colouring in the squares. One of Van Doren's employees saw the design and suggested the company run up similar fabric. Then came the lucky part: a production company was looking for shoes for Fast Times at Ridgemont High, a teen movie starring an up-and-coming young actor called Sean Penn. "And suddenly it was a phenomenon," says Van Doren. "We made them in every colour and every combination we could think of..."</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/17d91c5/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/pump-up-the-volume-how-did-vans-become-a-global-shoe-brand-872711.html&link=Pump up the volume: How did Vans become a global shoe brand?" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/pump-up-the-volume-how-did-vans-become-a-global-shoe-brand-872711.html&link=Pump up the volume: How did Vans become a global shoe brand?" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833371708/f/3803/c/266/s/25006533/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833371708/f/3803/c/266/s/25006533/a2.img" border="0"/></a>
Life after Ghost: Tanya Sarne is back with a new line in her signature style
<p>When Tanya Sarne, founder of the Ghost label, announced last year that she was launching a new line called handwritten, her legions of fans were delighted. The first collection, created in collaboration with the New York designer Gary Graham, is just as relaxed, pretty and wearer-friendly as might be expected, given the motivating force behind it. Having sold her remaining shares in Ghost to Kevin Stanford and the Icelandic retail investment company Arev, in 2006, Sarne had agreed not to work for a year. By then, while many might have just basked in the glory of past successes - and, it is hoped, considerable means - this irrepressible character had decidedly itchy feet. And that is good news for women the world over.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/17d91c4/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/life-after-ghost-tanya-sarne-is-back-with-a-new-line-in-her-signature-style-872704.html&link=Life after Ghost: Tanya Sarne is back with a new line in her signature style" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/life-after-ghost-tanya-sarne-is-back-with-a-new-line-in-her-signature-style-872704.html&link=Life after Ghost: Tanya Sarne is back with a new line in her signature style" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833371707/f/3803/c/266/s/25006532/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833371707/f/3803/c/266/s/25006532/a2.img" border="0"/></a>
Susannah Frankel: Ready To Wear
<p>If Victoria Beckham always seemed like an unlikely style icon, she has become just that, not only in the mainstream press - and falling down, tired and emotional or otherwise - but in more supposedly élitist fashion circles, too. Katie Holmes has, for some time now, displayed what might not unreasonably be described as Single White Female syndrome, where emulating her not-so-new best friend is concerned. And now, as pointed out last week on wgsn.com (Worth Global Style Network), it is the turn of Eva Longoria Parker to worship at the altar of the thin orange one.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/17d91c3/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/susannah-frankel-ready-to-wear-872703.html&link=Susannah Frankel: Ready To Wear" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/susannah-frankel-ready-to-wear-872703.html&link=Susannah Frankel: Ready To Wear" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833371706/f/3803/c/266/s/25006531/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833371706/f/3803/c/266/s/25006531/a2.img" border="0"/></a>
The mighty Swoosh: Nike's unprecedented advance on the fashion arena
<p>Look closely at the athletes' kit when the Olympic Games open in Beijing next month, and one brand in particular may seem keener than others to make something of a statement. The Games, of course, are the ultimate marketing opportunity for any sportswear brand - but Nike has gone into dizzying overdrive to make its mark. Take the new Air Force 1 training shoe, cunningly inspired by the "bird's nest" design of the Olympic stadium. Or the sole of the Air Max 90 sneaker, which along with the Windrunner jacket will be worn by any American, Kenyan or Ukrainian who goes up to collect a medal and has ingeniously been recreated in the colours of the Olympic rings. Representing Nike domination in Britain, look out for marathon maestro Paula Radcliffe, sprinter Simeon Williamson and heptathlete Kelly Sotherton draped in yet more new incarnations of the ubiquitous brand.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/17c3295/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/the-mighty-swoosh-nikes-unp.htmldented-advance-on-the-fashion-arena-870526.html&link=The mighty Swoosh: Nike's unprecedented advance on the fashion arena" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/the-mighty-swoosh-nikes-unp.htmldented-advance-on-the-fashion-arena-870526.html&link=The mighty Swoosh: Nike's unprecedented advance on the fashion arena" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833326440/f/3803/c/266/s/24916629/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13833326440/f/3803/c/266/s/24916629/a2.img" border="0"/></a>

How do I look? Afrika Bambaataa, Musician, age 51
<p><strong>I'm as old as the moon and the stars, and as young as the trees and the lakes.</strong> My style comes from looking at what came before me, and from visiting a lot of places. I'm fanatical about movies: African, European, Viking, Roman. I got into witchcraft and magic from watching Bewitched and The Wizard of Oz, which shows in some of my outfits. I dress to reflect the whole spectrum of the universe.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/17ad16e/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/how-do-i-look-afrika-bambaataa-musician-age-51-870598.html&link=How do I look?

Martin Margiela: Fashion's invisible superstar
<p>In the early spring of this year, The New York Times's influential style biannual, T magazine, ran a feature extolling the Belgian designer Martin Margiela. "Even after 20 years in the business, Martin Margiela is still the most elusive figure in fashion," it read, "which might explain why designers feel so free to thumb through his archives for inspiration." In an unprecedented move, this brief and unusually direct text was illustrated by five catwalk outfits courtesy of Marc Jacobs, AF Vandevorst, Junya Watanabe, Hermès and Prada, above which were printed images of the Margiela originals that had clearly, well, let's just say "inspired" their work.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/1755ed7/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/martin-margiela-fashions-invisible-superstar-868562.html&link=Martin Margiela: Fashion's invisible superstar" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/martin-margiela-fashions-invisible-superstar-868562.html&link=Martin Margiela: Fashion's invisible superstar" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13663627456/f/3803/c/266/s/24469207/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13663627456/f/3803/c/266/s/24469207/a2.img" border="0"/></a>

Dorian Leigh: 'Supermodel' of the 1940s
<p>An icon whose look and style defined the fashion world of the 1940s, Dorian Leigh is widely regarded as having been the first "supermodel". In 1946 she appeared on seven Vogue covers, and over the next six years was on more than 50 covers of such magazines as Life, Look and McCall's. In the early 1950s, she featured in a series of famous images for Revlon's "Fire and Ice" campaign promoting nail-polish and lipstick ("For you who love to flirt with fire; who dare to skate on thin ice"), ravishingly shot in a jewelled dress and red cape by Richard Avedon.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/1729c3e/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/dorian-leigh-supermodel-of-the-1940s-866904.html&link=Dorian Leigh: 'Supermodel' of the 1940s" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/dorian-leigh-supermodel-of-the-1940s-866904.html&link=Dorian Leigh: 'Supermodel' of the 1940s" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381311453/f/3803/c/266/s/24288318/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381311453/f/3803/c/266/s/24288318/a2.img" border="0"/></a>

Susannah Frankel: Ready To Wear
<p>For all the flak directed at the British for their impoverished sense of style, a hefty dose of Anglophilia is rarely a million miles away from the collective fashion consciousness. Here, then, we have Dolce & Gabbana's witty and pretty take on that theme. Their younger D&G line was nothing if not an unabashed homage to the wardrobe of Queen Elizabeth II, not dressed for affairs of state but wearing the kind of clothing she is best known for when walking her Corgis at Balmoral. And jolly nice she looks, too.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/171ccbb/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/susannah-frankel-ready-to-wear-866762.html&link=Susannah Frankel: Ready To Wear" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/susannah-frankel-ready-to-wear-866762.html&link=Susannah Frankel: Ready To Wear" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381285054/f/3803/c/266/s/24235195/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381285054/f/3803/c/266/s/24235195/a2.img" border="0"/></a>
It's in the jeans: Classic labels lose to celebrity brands
<p>They have hugged cowboys' bottoms since 1870. In the 1980s, Levi Strauss jeans became the must-have denims, when Nick Kamen shed his in a launderette for a TV advert. But now the company is looking threadbare, having recently suffered a 98 per cent drop in profits. Classic cowboy labels such as Wrangler and Lee are struggling to hold their own in a market that has become dominated by designer brands and "delebrity denim" carrying the names of celebrities such as Victoria Beckham.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/170662b/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/news/its-in-the-jeans-classic-labels-lose-to-celebrity-brands-866488.html&link=It's in the jeans: Classic labels lose to celebrity brands" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/news/its-in-the-jeans-classic-labels-lose-to-celebrity-brands-866488.html&link=It's in the jeans: Classic labels lose to celebrity brands" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381240060/f/3803/c/266/s/24143403/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381240060/f/3803/c/266/s/24143403/a2.img" border="0"/></a>

Swimsuits: How to get back in one piece
<p>Hemlines may rise during times of economic uncertainty, but this summer there is more fabric involved in swimwear than we've seen for a long time.

How do I look?: Ali Gabut Youngblood, Musician, age 25
<p><strong>I'm half black, half Philippino. I was born looking pretty unique.</strong> No one can ever tell what nationality I am. I play off that. I wear whatever makes me look thinner. It's hard to shop in the UK. I'll see something but it's always one size too small. In the States you get plus-sizes; there are a lot of happy chubby people there. I'm a UK size 16. People think I look great naked!

Susie Rushton: Beauty Queen
<p>It's a nation synonymous with sun, sangria and soccer champions. But cutting-edge beauty? Almodovar's movies might've done great things for Spanish arts, but the Technicolor eyeshadow of his female leads (not to mention the transvestites) never looked particularly sophisticated to foreign eyes. But it is this very nation, from where I've often brought home a tan but rarely so much as a mascara wand, that is fast gaining ground on the dominant French, Japanese and American brands in the billion-pound global beauty industry.</p><img width='1' height='1' src='http://rss.feedsportal.com/c/266/f/3803/s/16f0d0f/mf.gif ' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/sendemail2.html?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/susie-rushton-beauty-queen-864544.html&link=Susie Rushton: Beauty Queen" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/features/susie-rushton-beauty-queen-864544.html&link=Susie Rushton: Beauty Queen" target="_blank"><img src="http://rss.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381196184/f/3803/c/266/s/24055055/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/13381196184/f/3803/c/266/s/24055055/a2.img" border="0"/></a>
