Brits' love of fashion rides out recession!

The recession has not dampened British women's love of fashion as new research shows nearly half of female shoppers have spent the same or more on their clothes in the last year.

A report published by Mintel this week reveals that despite gloomy reports that consumers are tightening their purse strings, over half of UK consumers (54%) did not reduce the amount they spent on updating their wardrobes. More than four in ten consumers (43%) did not change their clothes shopping habits and a dedicated one in ten (11%) followers of fashion said they actually spent more on clothes than they usually would over the past year.

Overall, nearly half of women in the UK (12.7 million) spent the same or more on their clothes despite the economic difficulties.

Comment:
So the "Lipstick Effect" really is true! Great news for all those indy fashion boutiques out there!

Anthropologie Boutique, Regent Street & Kings Road, London

Well where do I start? Anthropologie (the posh sister of urban outfitters!) has brought the eclectic indy retailer style to a large chain of shops and really pulls it off. Their designs are gorgeous on every level and their styling is some of the most inventive I have seen. The new shop on the Kings Road is just to die for. From the fantastic window displays to the living plant walls and wacky art installations dotted around the shop. A visit is a must, if you love retail, art, textiles or just plain love to buy, you will certainly not be disappointed!
