We know what you're thinking. This blog is all us, us, us.

What's about you? It's high time we found out a bit more about your lovely self.

So, everyone who completes our fashion & shopping survey will be emailed a promotional code for one free share in a Catwalk Genius fashion designer of their choice. Not bad, for 16 brief questions.

We'll also pull one email address out of a hat and that person will get a discount code for £100 discount on anything in our Boutique or Shop Floor.

The deadline for entry is Sunday 7th June. Remember to leave your email address, or we won't be able to get your code to you (they won't be used for spamming, promise). We'll contact winners with their codes the week beginning 8th June.

Take the survey here.

Sunshine's just around the corner, I'm sure of it.

Watch this space...

Countdown to February's London Fashion Week is well and truly under way.  If you've been lucky enough to catch any of the catwalk shows of previous seasons, you'll know that they are traditionally dominated by collections of womenswear.  No more!  The BFC announced today that the schedule for LFW will include 13 promising menswear designers who will all be showing on the afternoon of February 25th.

We can't wait to get a look at Carolyn Massey and James Long.  After all, there is room for menswear on the catwalk too, especially if it happens to be clothing a rather exquisite looking gentleman.

Most museums, I can take or leave. Don't blame me, blame my attention-deficient generation. And MTV.
However, this one's definitely worth the trip - and especially between now and 17th of May:

An exhibit of works by the award-winning fashion designer Hussein Chalayan from 1994-2009 is on at London's Design Museum.
It's purpose is to look at the creative approach of a man who brought us portable architecture, a dress made of aircraft materials and another made of Swarovski crystals and 15,000 flickering LED lights.
It's the most compresensive presentation of Chalayan's past fifteen years of experimental projects and will include his past and present collections.
It should appeal to anyone who loves fashion, technology, innovation or art. Basically, anyone with eyes and brain.
And I dare you to leave without once contemplating the phrase 'frickin' laser beams'.

So t'interweb really loves our latest addition, Tour de Force.
Shall we find out why, lovely readers? Then let's begin..
First, there's this:


Pleated Flower Headpiece, £89
..and then of course the nice discount on this:


Butterfly Crown, was £89, now £69.
..and it's also can't harm that the designer, Camille Roman, is fresh from creating some of the magic at Johnny Loves Rosie, with a CV that also lists Lanvin, Zac Posen and Lulu Guinness.
So there you go - visit Tour de Force's shop to make a stylish statement with a simple outfit, or when you want to be the most fashion-forward guest over 2009's wedding season.

We are thrilled to welcome Markus Lupfer and his fabulous knits to Catwalk Genius.



Markus graduated with first class honours from the University of Westminster and immediately sold his graduate collection to Koh Samui.  Markus' own label was born in 1998.

Since then, Markus has become renowned for his use of stunning prints and bold colours and his knitwear has been worn by many a starlet, such as Gwen Stefani.
