Amy Winehouse's Collection For Fred Perry To Go Ahead
Her third album of previously unreleased songs is out later this year, and now her latest Fred Perry Collection is hitting stores too – Amy Winehouse’s legacy isn’t going anywhere. With houndstooth dresses, checked shirts and figure-hugging shirt-dresses, the collection has Amy’s signature style written all over it. The wool houndstooth dress is £150, while the polo dress retails for £110 – not bad considering Fred Perry will make a seasonal donation to the Amy Winehouse Foundation, which provides help for young people in the early stages of drug and alcohol addiction. Gone but not forgotten, Amy. HE

Go Back To Black This Autumn
Go Back To Black This Autumn
08 July 2008
Beauty turns to the dark side for its Autumn/Winter inspiration.
If you want to get ahead of the autumn winter trends this summer then invest in black make up.
The Autumn/Winter make up has taken inspiration from Amy Winehouse as it goes back to black. The hottest make up looks were shown on the London catwalks from designers Biba and House of Holland. The flicks were drawn across the lid of the eyes for a gothic look.
Giles showed black punky lips on their catwalk and dark smouldering eyeshadow was shown at Felder Felder.
After a summer of neon nails and bright pinks its time to bring out the dark nail varnish again for Autumn talons.
Snap up the darkest shades on the make up counter for a look that rivals Marilyn Manson.
