What should I wear on a British summer holiday?

Forget the cute shorts and rope sandals – pack your wellingtons and woollens instead. You can't bring on warm weather by dressing for it, and there's no point freezing to death.

I'm going on a girly break in Cornwall next week and am in a fashion quandary. I don't want to freeze to death but dressing in wintry clothes is depressing on a summer holiday.
Jane, by email

What to do? Jane, it seems to me that you – as so many correspondents to this column do – answered your own query in the letter. Yes, dressing in wintry clothes on a summer break is depressing. But you know what is even more depressing? Freezing to death.

Look, you would probably get a different answer if you wrote to one of the myriad British journalists around, but I'm going to give you some straight talkin' American advice here. There are many things I love about Britain: the national obsession with chocolate; the existence of Speaker's Corner; the fact that newspapers run front page stories about the health of the Queen's corgis.

But one thing I do not love and will never understand is the sense of pride some Britons take in being deliberately uncomfortable. You know, the ones who swim in the sea in November in the rain. The ones who insist on going on walks in lashing storms. The ones who seem to think they're residing on some kind of moral high ground by not turning on the heat until December, when all they're really residing on is a pile of their own smugness, which is all they have to heat their frostbitten bones.

I fully concur that Americans tend to take the whole "personal comfort" thing too far, with their overheated apartments and icy cold air conditioners, their giant cars that they drive 50 yards to go to the gym, and their insanely large portions of food. But really, there is a middle way, and seeing as "middle way" goes against every grain of American ethos (over there you're either a raging Muslim socialist or a swivel-eyed rightwing shock jock), then it is up to modern Brits such as yourself, Jane, to find it. There is nothing superior about making yourself uncomfortable. Rather, it is the person who feels genuinely at ease who should be the most commended, and that person is living in neither an unheated nor an overheated house.

Lessons from the stylish: Bec Clarke

Are clothes important to Bec Clarke, a woman with more beautiful, precious jewellery than almost anyone else I know? Put it this way, she was sent home from her first job for wearing the wrong trousers. It was a fashion agency. She was front of house. The trousers were straight, not boot-cut. Catastrophe.

So it's probably not entirely coincidental that, almost two decades on, Clarke's daily uniform comprises of boot-cuts and blouses - low-cut usually, the better to show off her curves and her jewellery. She's dressed like this for years. She calls it east meets west London, although when we try to identify which bit of it is east London (she was actually raised in Islington, north London, so I think she just doesn't want to be identified as a pampered yummy mummy type) we're both stumped. "I suppose I dreamt of being edgy and androgynous, but with these boobs and bottom, it's not going to happen. Maybe I mean I'm half groomed, half mess. I'm definitely not experimental."

Lessons from the stylish: Lulu

If mess is the right word, it's more the sleek, Euro version than the mega-strength British genus. Her blonde hair, the colour of a Timotei ad, is lovingly nurtured at John Frieda ("I tried the €30 highlights in a salon near our house in Umbria and it was a disaster") and her nails are impeccable. They'd have to be, given that she's a walking advertisement for the colourful precious and semi-precious stones she has done so much to make accessible. "As a company it's increasingly important for us to present ourselves glamorously," she acknowledges.

Zimbabwe: ‘Mugabe worksuits’ new fashion trend

A HEAVY-duty worksuit that is emblazoned with the signature of president Robert Mugabe is the latest fashion craze in Zimbabwe – and the designers claim orders are flooding in from outside the country.

Designers James Pande and Herbert Huruba say young Zimbabweans can’t get enough of their worksuits – even wearing them to football matches.

“What surprised us was the overwhelming orders and interest of people in the [suits],” said Mr Huruba, of local fashion house Hovhorosi $tyle.

“Currently we are seeking to fulfil an order we received from Scotland showing that we have gone platinum since our inception in the fashion industry,” he told the local Standard newspaper yesterday. It was not immediately clear which Scottish company has placed the order.

Available in green, yellow, orange, red and white, the one-piece worksuits were originally designed for delegates attending a conference of Mr Mugabe’s Zanu-PF party last year and bear the 89-year-old president’s signature across the front.

At £20 each, the overalls are not cheap in a nation where many earn less than £200 a month. Fans can purchase a matching beret for £7. Promotional materials show models pairing the overalls with stilettos, knee-high boots and the dark glasses Mr Mugabe favours.

Agents are selling them across the border in Johannesburg and Cape Town, South Africa, the designers claim.

They say the overalls will promote “solidarity and unity”, a catchphrase for Mr Mugabe’s dream of a one-party state.

But critics say they are being used to rebrand the octogenarian dictator ahead of elections this year – and warn that survivors of the last violent elections in 2008 may find them intimidating.

Youth militias dressed in not-dissimilar green uniforms rampaged through Zimbabwe’s rural areas after Mr Mugabe lost the first round of voting in March 2008, attacking anyone suspected of supporting Morgan Tsvangirai’s Movement for Democratic Change party.

Jenna Lyons: fashion queen of America

The stylish J Crew creative director, with her colourful personal life and famous fans, is behind the rise of one of America's most influential brands. But will the UK love her look when her first shop opens here?

It is Memorial Day weekend in America, the unofficial start of summer, and my friend and her teenage daughter are in the Hamptons, having scored an invitation to stay at the beachside mansion of one of New York's wealthiest families.

"What are you going to wear?" I asked my friend, before she set off, mindful of the grey and drizzly weather and the fact that grand-style entertaining isn't her usual milieu. "Oh, I'm not worried," she replied breezily. "We went to J Crew."

A mother and daughter both buying clothes from the same retailer could be rather odd, but J Crew is a revered American fashion brand that manages to cater to the tastes of different generations. The clothes are affordable and stylish and wildly popular in the US. Last week, British shoppers got the chance to buy a limited J Crew collection at a pop-up shop in London's King's Cross, before the American retailer's high-profile and much-flagged first British shop opens in London's Regent Street in November.

Overseeing this foray into Britain is J Crew's president and creative director, Jenna Lyons, widely credited with transforming the company from a fashion retailer that had lost its way into a cult brand. The company has more than 300 branches in the US, a growing presence abroad and revenue of more than $2.2bn. The 44-year-old is currently the most high-profile woman in consumer fashion. This year, she was ranked in Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People list.

Lyons has been with the brand for her entire career, having joined as a junior designer in 1990. When former Gap CEO Mickey Drexler took the reins of the struggling brand a decade ago, Lyons said that both she and the company were burned out by a corporate strategy that had lost interest in creativity and was simply trying to hold on to the bottom line. "We were lost soldiers, working away, following orders," she remembers of the era when J Crew lost its mojo. "I was shell-shocked… fried."

Kate Moss gets naked in St.Tropez

Kate Moss has become the new face and body of her long-trusted self tanning favourite, St.Tropez . "I have used St.Tropez since it started. Around 15 years ago, the first time I went to Ibiza, I didn't want to be the only white person on the beach so I had a St.Tropez," admits Moss.

During the campaign shoot (which you can go behind-the-scenes on in the video above) Moss explained why she loves a fake tan. "It makes me feel more confident, you just feel better when you look in the mirror and you look much healthier. Sometimes I think I feel terrible but I look great! There is no reason to go around with that pasty pallor anymore, which is really exciting."

So why is she now fronting St.Tropez? Because "it's a cool brand too," says Moss. "It is a natural looking tan which is most importantly what people want, they don't want something orange and unnatural. It is so easy to apply yourself, I always used to think you needed to have a professional spray tan but you don't have to anymore. St.Tropez has such a wardrobe of products, like skin polishers and tan optimisers that make it easy to apply yourself."

Rita Ora flashes her sexy midriff for night out with Harry Styles and model Cara Delevingne

Shine Ya Light singer Rita Ora went for a daring two-piece outfit last night, flashing her midriff to party with model friend Cara Delevingne and pal Harry Styles.

Rita, Cara and One Direction singer Harry hit the town for a War Child gig after Rita headed to the the Calvin Klein show and also to the Burberry catwalk to see Cara modelling earlier in the day.

Rita clearly doesn't mind the February chill – she'd already showed off her toned tum in a black satin combo earlier in the day before changing into retro print trousers and bright orange crop top for the evening.

Rita looked the epitome of style as she partied the night away with her new-found gang.

Beyoncé To Perform At 2013 Brit Awards

BEYONCÉ KNOWLES will perform at the 2013 Brit Awards. The singer joins the line-up alongside British acts One Direction, Muse, Emeli Sandé and Robbie Williamson, who will also take to the stage. The news marks the start of a particularly busy year for Beyoncé, who is also preparing for a Destiny's Child reunion, the launch of her first fly-on-the-wall documentary and a much-hyped performance at the US Super Bowl half-time show. This year's Brit Awards will take place on Wednesday February 20, to be presented by James Corden and broadcast live on ITV1.

Stylist Jessica Paster: Designers Need To Be More “Open Minded”

STYLIST Jessica Paster believes that young designers need to be "a little more open" when deciding which stars to dress for events. Paster, responsible for the immaculate red carpet style of Miranda Kerr, Emily Blunt, Cate Blanchett and Fanning sisters Elle and Dakota - to name but a few - insists that it's not as easy to dress up-and-coming talent as it was 10 years ago. "You didn't see Jason Wu or Prabal Gurung on the red carpet [at the Golden Globes], because instead of them being a little open-minded, they're waiting to get these other people that they think they deserve," she said. "If you would've put a Prabal Gurung on a beautiful actress, it would have been showcased and he would have sold four more dresses. Everyone is like, 'No, I want to dress Cate Blanchett. No, I want to dress Cate Blanchett. No, I want to dress Cate Blanchett." The stylist continued to explain that she believes the problem lies with both the PR ("they're not public relations, they're dress traffickers") and the designer - while also expanding upon the lucrative effect that a red carpet outing can have on a label's sales. "They want the most famous person, and they're losing the chance to get their work shown. There are two reasons to dress somebody on the red carpet: ego or business. I just feel that these up-and-coming designers that are fabulous and amazingly talented should be a little more open," she told Fashionista. "If they can get their dress on a certain person on a red carpet, that's going to sell their clothing. But instead these designers have to go and do a line with - so and so, or for Kmart - they have to do those things because obviously their clothes are not selling."

Gap Enters The Luxury Market

HIGH STREET giant Gap has bought high-end US retailer Intermix for $130 million (£80.4 million). The move marks the first time the iconic American brand has entered the luxury market. Intermix - which has 32 stores in the US, as well as an extensive ecommerce site - stocks designer labels such as Jimmy Choo, Chloe, Bottega Veneta, Valentino and Stella McCartney. The acquisition will see the brand become part of Gap's growing portfolio, which includes Banana Republic, Old Navy and Piperlime. "Intermix has a distinctive position in this growing market with clear competitive advantage," Gap Inc chairman and CEO Glenn Murphy told WWD. "Their record of merchandising with a keen eye towards mixing multiple designer labels, complemented with exclusive product, is appealing to their loyal customers. This strategy reflects the strength of their brand vision and leadership team." Gap plans to help grow Intermix's "core business" and to open new stores in the US. International expansion is in the distant pipeline in the future. "We're always looking for new brands," said Intermix co-founder and CEO Khajak Keledjian. "In partnering with Gap, that will enable us to have more time to focus on growth. One reason for our success is [being] an incubator for new designers and new talent. [Partnering with Gap] will let us focus more on product, merchandising and innovation."

Italian Labels Battle To Register Brand Names In China

DSQUARED2, Costume National and Iceberg have been denied the right to register their labels in China, because their brand names have already been unrightfully used in the country by an unnamed single party. Italy's governing fashion body, The Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana, is currently fighting for the decision to be reconsidered. "The impediment of the legitimate brand owners to operate in China and develop their markets on international grounds is an extremely serious matter that has forced the Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana to reach out for the help and collaboration of the Chinese institutional bodies that have always contributed to a positive mutual relation between the two countries," a statement from the Italian organisation read, The Telegraph reports. The release went on to add that the three Italian labels should be recognised as separate entities from the company that has current ownership of the brand names.

Sarah Brown Joins Harrods

SARAH BROWN, wife of former Prime Minster Gordon Brown, has joined Harrods as a non-executive director working within the department store's marketing and corporate social responsibility division. "I look forward to my return to business in joining the Harrods Group board and welcome the opportunity to work on the marketing and corporate social responsibility plans for this world-renowned British brand," said Brown. Brown is known for her charity work and is a patron of the White Ribbon Alliance, which promotes safe motherhood, and Women's Aid - an organisation aiming to prevent domestic violence. A spokesperson for Qatar Holding, the company that owns Harrods, told The Independent that Brown would offer "input and insight into the company's strategic initiatives and overall business".

Savannah Miller On Going Solo

SAVANNAH MILLER has revealed that she's happy to step out of her sister Sienna's shadow. Speaking at the launch of her eponymous label Savannah last night in London - an intimate party providing the backdrop - the designer revealed: "I've been hiding behind my sister for long enough. It was really time to stand on my own two feet." The collection - her first solo project since she departed Twenty8Twelve in January where she was co-creative director with Sienna - is a momentous move for the designer. "This is so different, this is really me," she revealed. "No big team, just the two of us sitting down together," referring to her new head of design, Gudrun Kloepsch. With a BA in knitwear from Central Saint Martins and an impressive history in fashion - she has previously worked with both Alexander McQueen and with "best friend" Matthew Williamson - she certainly has the credentials to go it alone. "I am just so excited to have my own label - I can't quite believe it," she said. It seems like she's found the perfect fit - the collection is a cool blend of must-have party dresses, sumptuous knits and bohemian detailing - and she still gets to split her time between the country and the capital: "That's always how I've done it. It's really important for me to be able to pick my kids up from school at least two nights a week. I'm a mother first." The designer is clearly in her element. Authentic, affordable and independent, this is Savannah. Savannah is now available exclusively at nelly.com

Vogue: The Pop Issue

THE December issue of Vogue is an explosive celebration of pop in all its many forms - from popular people and pop music to pop-up stores and pop culture. "When I came up with the idea, it was not because I had spotted a root in fashion terms - apart from the somewhat trippy Prada and Miu Miu autumn/winter collections - but now that I've been watching the new-season shows, pop culture references have been bursting out everywhere," said Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman in her editor's letter. "So, as you look at the cacophony of colour, print and excess that this Vogue holds, take note: you are looking at your future, or at least next spring's wardrobe." Supermodel Natalia Vodianova stars on the cover, photographed by Mario Testino, in a shoot that is every bit as colourful and energetic as a tribute to pop should be. If the Russian beauty is our woman of the month, then boy band-of-the-moment One Direction are our leading men. Vogue features director Jo Ellison spends a day with the inexhaustible impressively professional fivesome - a group set for world domination. The December issue of Vogue is available from Saturday November 3.

This Week In Pictures - 15/10/2012

We've been treated to a whole host of newsworthy pictures to share this week - from Beyoncé announcing her latest big gig, to the Sexiest Shoe in the world and Blake Lively wearing a wedding dress. We've also seen Poppy Delevingne posing outside a wool-wrapped Harvey Nichols and Daniel Craig smiling for the cameras with his co-stars at a photo call for the new James Bond film Skyfall - while a selection of celebrity shoes have popped up in Leicester Square. A pair of new film posters have just been released - a close-up of Anne Hathaway for Les Misérables and Vogue cover girl Kristen Stewart's latest Twilight Breaking Dawn Part Two advert - plus David Walliams paid tribute to model wife Lara Stone.

Jennifer Lawrence Makes Vogue Cover Debut

JENNIFER LAWRENCE has landed her first ever Vogue cover, starring on the November issue - out on sale on Saturday October 6. The 22-year-old is the second youngest Best Actress Oscar nominee of all time (the youngest was then-13-year-old Keisha Castle-Hughes in Whalerider), and found global fame after playing warrior heroine Katniss Everdeen in the film version of Suzanne Collins' book, The Hunger Games. A star unequivocally on the rise, Lawrence hits our cinema screens again this month with horror film House At The End Of The Street, then again in December with drama-comedy Silver Lining Playbook - alongside Robert de Niro, Julia Stiles and Bradley Cooper. Although she's built a name for herself as being one of Hollywood's more low-key starlets, she's also known for her impressive red carpet prowess - although what she wears isn't something that bothers her actor boyfriend, Nicholas Hoult. The pair worked together on X-Men: First Class, which was released last year. "Oh, he really doesn't care," she said. "Like he'll sometimes wear these white tennis shoes with jeans, then tuck his pants into his socks. He has absolutely no idea how good-looking he is. I think a lot of women and men hate me because of that."

Paris Fashion Week: Day One

Updated Wednesday September 26, 10.26am: Two bastions of French fashion - Karl Lagerfeld and Alber Elbaz - have shown their enthusiasm for this season's Paris Fashion Week, and it's all thanks to Raf Simons and Hedi Slimane - who will make their womenswear ready-to-wear debuts for Dior and Saint Laurent Paris respectively. "I think it will be an exciting season in Paris. It is needed!" Lagerfeld told WWD. "It's stimulating and both [Simons and Slimane] are people I like a lot with a lot of talent." "I think it's going to be a fashion moment in Paris," agreed Alber Elbaz. "I think it's something that a lot of people are feeling and thinking about, and I love competition because it moves me forward. You know, I'm not a jealous person. I'm only jealous of people who can eat and don't gain weight. It motivates all of us to work harder and find solutions." Updated Wednesday September 26, 8.32am: Our appetites may have been whetted by Cedric Charlier and Anthony Vaccarello yesterday, but Paris Fashion Week gets in full swing today. While Guy Laroche, Alexis Mabille and Nicolas Andreas Taralis start the proceedings, Dries Van Noten is the first big name to take centre stage - with a show scheduled for 3pm. We'll hopefully be treated to more luxe daywear at Rochas this afternoon, before the dark subversive creations of Gareth Pugh at 6pm. The London-based designer - who started showing in Paris in 2008 - is sure to see front row support from his long-term friend and fan, Daphne Guinness - the perfect muse for his armour-like work. Martine Sitbon is expected to deliver more of her carefree feminine elegance at the Rue du Mail show this evening, as Nicola Formichetti gets set to unveil his next collection for Mugler later on - where he'll debut his first handbag line for the label. The French designer has fast become known for his attention-grabbing and impactful work, even casting Lady Gaga in his autumn/winter 2011-12 show. It'll no doubt give the fashion crowd a suitably bold way to round off day one of the Paris schedule.

Milan Fashion Week: Day Six

Updated Monday September 24, 8.31am: Cara Delevingne opened DSquared2's show this morning - "a celebration of the super girls, super sexy", as the designers behind the label, Dean and Dan Caten, told us backstage. The surprise special guests? The Jedward twins, naturally. Updated Monday September 24, 8.31am: The final day of Milan Fashion Week is here, but not before the DSquared2 designers - twin brothers Dan and Dean Caten - prepare to put on what is always a wildly imaginative show. Last season, the pair recreated a fake prom setting (starring Lindsey Wixson as prom queen, naturally); spring/summer 2012 was a catwalk version of Glastonbury (complete with a stage, muddy boots and a camper van); and autumn/winter 2011-12 was an homage to the Wild West. This season can only be bigger and more inventive. Roberto Cavalli follows next on the schedule. Hopefully, he'll have mellowed since his recent tirade against the "Little King Armani", as he referred to his fellow designer as. Cavalli became concerned after Armani moved his show slot from the same as his (Monday) to the day before, provoking fears that the fashion press might skip his catwalk offering to travel to Paris instead. Gianfranco Ferré will round up the proceedings, as designers Stefan Citron and Federico Piaggi prepare to showcase their third offering for the Italian label. Tomorrow, the fashion carousel moves to Paris for the final set of shows.

Milan Fashion Week: Day Two

Updated Thursday September 20, 1.02pm: MaxMara eschewed the vibrant colours that we saw in London (John Rocha, Erdem, Osman and Burberry to name but a few), opting instead for a safari-inspired collection that came in soft khaki hues (pictured left). Emporio Armani adopted the same mushroom hues later this morning, adding a feminine polished twist. Updated Thursday September 20, 8.25am: Today's most coveted ticket is Prada - one of the season's biggest shows. No one sets a trend or a mood quite like Ms Prada and the fashion pack will be on tenterhooks to see what she has in store next. Starting the day off, however, is MaxMara - a label that always manages to attract a front row star or two. Previous guests have included Katie Holmes, Zoe Saldana and Chloe Moretz. Emporio Armani is next up on the agenda, followed by Ermanno Scervino - whose show will star Brit girl-of-the-moment Cara Delevingne.

London Fashion Week: Day One

Updated Friday September 14, 1.03pm: Antoni & Alison got the London shows off to a roaring start this morning, by sending a brass band down the catwalk. The label's latest offering comprised a colourful collection, full of pretty silk dresses. Fyodor Golan focused on occasionwear later on, with blue the colour of choice. There is still plenty to look forward to this afternoon - we've just heard that Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn are set to hit the catwalk for Sass & Bide. Updated Friday September 14, 8.28am: London Fashion Week starts today. Antoni & Alison will kick-start the schedule at 10am, followed by former Fashion Fringe star Fyodor Golan and BFC/Vogue Fashion Fund nominee Zoё Jordan. Last season, Jordan recruited BFC young ambassador Poppy Delevingne to star in her show - we wonder what she has planned today. This afternoon, we'll see new offerings from Corrie Nielsen, Willow, Sass & Bide and Duchess of Cambridge favourite Emilia Wickstead. LFW name-to-know Eudon Choi will give the front rowers plenty to talk about as he showcases his latest collection at 3.30pm. Markus Lupfer will hopefully deliver more of his playful tongue-in-cheek creations tonight, followed by Felder Felder and PPQ - that will take the celebrations late into the evening with its hipster-packed after-party, a soirée that has become a staple on the LFW circuit.
