A picture in Vogue is like gold dust, speaks a tousand words and so on – it is every brand owner’s dream.
So when a complete unknown decided to make her own skirt for a charity event at Spencer House in central London, little did she know …
Her zebra patterned, ankle-length skirt caught the editor’s eye and made the ‘front of book’ section of the bumper September issue of the British glossy.
As for the unknown designer – well, it was a one-off fashion experience and she remains just that, unknown.

Fabulous Fashion Website to launch…
June 16, 2010 · Leave a Comment
ASCOT TV is an exciting promotional tool in the luxury goods business, turning Royal Ascot into a festival of PR and advertising.
Fronted by Jeff Banks, Ascot TV leads the way with live feeds to a unique and captive audience.
It is shown on big screens across lawns, in bars and in private boxes all over the race course featuring interviews and commentary on who is wearing what.
And it seems everybody is watching.
Fashion legend Banks picked out designer fashionista Sharon Wolter-Ferguson among the crowd on day one (shown above).
But what he didn’t know was that Wolter-Ferguson is soon to launch a website for people wishing to sell those fabulous clothes and accessories they hardly ever wear.
The site is still a guarded secret among close friends.
Great name, excellent concept, fabulous and clever, it will present fashion lovers with a real opportunity to pass on their show-stopping pieces to others and recoup some of their fashion spend.
You read it here first.

Storywheels is now capturing the imagination of consumers – as composable brands appeal to those looking for personalised collectable jewellery, Storywheels is the ultimate luxury accessory.
Each ‘wheel’ in the Storywheels bracelet or necklace represents a special
moment in the wearer’s life, such as a small key to mark the purchase of a
new house or another wheel to celebrate the birth of a child. One day the bracelet becomes a chain full of memories – a woman’s life story.
Made of silver and gold with pearls, diamonds and precious stones, the
wheels slide onto a chain finished off by a clasp, inscribed with the words
My Life Story.
The bracelet – or the Storywheels necklace – is a unique piece of jewellery
which becomes not only a great conversation piece, but also a very personal
piece with added emotional value.
The current Face of Storywheels is beautiful British actress Kara Tointon, a red carpet favourite, who has been described by The Daily Mail as ‘a picture of refined elegance’.
She appears in the TV commercial for Storywheels featured above, showing on TV in the UK.
