Christmas has only just passed but the annual sales have already started, and prestigious London department store, Harrods, officially opened theirs in style with a performance from Florence and The Machine.

Christmas is a busy time for the Royal family and having wed Prince William earlier in the year, 2011 saw Kate Middleton join the Royal family for her very first Christmas at Sandringham. Of course, any public appearance she made meant that all eyes would be on her and what she was wearing. The Duchess had already revealed that she would change five times during the Christmas celebrations, but unfortunately it hasn’t been revealed exactly what she was wearing on the big day.

A few of you lucky ladies (and gents!) may have gone to see Kate Middleton’s wedding dress when it was on show at Buckingham Palace. Well, imagine the worldwide hysteria that will ensue when a handful of Diana’s most famous dresses will be available for viewing in the new year. Diana was as well known for her wardrobe choices as her charity work, and even 14 years on from her death, the publicity surrounding the princess continues.

The latest Mulberry collection has just been released! Yes, the Harriet is the latest name on everyone’s lips and the new bag to fall in love with.

Fur is still a huge issue within the fashion industry and PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) are firmly against it being worn by anybody. 2011 marks the animal charity’s first ‘Celebrity Grinch Awards’ and superstars Janet Jackson and Kim Kardashian are the first two celebrities to be awarded!

In the 21st century, fashion has become much more than something just for adults.

A whole host of celebrity children have been pictured in the past, with wardrobes to rival their own mothers and now designer fashion house Versace, have opened their very own boutique, aimed specifically at children.

2011 has been a rollercoaster year for British singer Adele. She has reached the number 1 spot in 24 different countries as well as having received 6 Grammy nominations, but she’s also suffered hugely with a benign polyp on her vocal chords, which has threatened her hugely successful singing career.

It has been announced that model, Alice Dellal, who is best known for her boyish style and shaven hair, is to appear as the new face of Chanel’s ‘Boy’ handbag collection.

The star of US sitcom’s 8 Simple Rules, and more recently, The Big Bang Theory, has really made a name for herself in the world of television, and now she’s trying her hand in the world of fashion after revealing her love for jeans.

Before her death earlier this year, Amy Winehouse teamed up with iconic British label, Fred Perry. The collaboration was an exciting time for the label and the singing sensation, but after her awful death, the label are continuing to keep her memory alive with the release of their collections.
