Guardian.co.uk reports about the new list with the 25 most powerful players in British fashion:
"The fashion industry just adores a list. Thrives on them in fact. Whole issues of style magazines, from Now to Vogue and every level of glossiness in between, are regularly dedicated to best-dressed/worst-dressed lists. More unkind readers might like to suggest that this is because fashion people are so concerned with whether pastels are the new black and whether kitten heels are back (they both are, for the record) that we don't have the capacity to think beyond bullet points. But yesterday, for the first time, the British Fashion Council (BFC) released its own, rather more weighty list, the 25 most powerful players in British fashion today."
