Welcome to Lancaster Uni's fashion society blog. Think of this blog as the eyes and ears of fashion at Lancaster Uni.
Our aim is to pretty much keep you up to date with everything happening in the world of fashion, or anything we think is worth you knowing. Also as we live on a uni campus on a student budget we'll be giving you the latest on fashion on a budget. :) Watch out for us out out and about on campus cos students are our inspiration and you might find yourselves and other fashion forward students featured in our weekly style watch.
Stay tuned for the latest and as Paris Hilton puts it well (oddly) ''Life is too short to blend in.'

The British Fashion Council
This is the 25th anniversary of the British Fashion Council, the people responsible for the international recognition of British fashion genius that has been stocking our wardrobes for the past two and a half decades. The council is currently chaired by Harold Tillman who, when not freely donating his time to the work of the council, owns and chairs Jaegar – the label catapulting onto the catwalk the kind of classic chic synonymous with the more mature woman and in the process, completely changing the face of the middle-aged female Brit!
Accommodating changing trends and times has become second nature to the BFC, making it a priority of theirs to coax the emerging young designers from the woodwork with mentoring and sponsorship schemes in place alongside competitions and awards. They have an impressive record of winners to boot, plucking from obscurity such household names as Alexander McQueen, Matthew Williamson and Julian McDonald. November 2008 saw Luella Bartley claim the ‘Designer of the year’ award with her dainty kitsch florals becoming a recurring theme this year, celebrating the essence of spring and summer in old Blighty.
The council, despite being responsible for the wealth of talent hot-footing it down the runways of global fashion weeks, haven't forgotten their heads. Estethica was formed with the sole view to keep fashion ethical and with Monsoon being their sponsor their main aims are the sustainability of resources and promoting the importance of fair-trade wherever it can, such as Topshop-endorsed label – People tree.
With 25 years already under its leather, stud-spangled belt, let’s hope that its got more than a few left in it.
