The profits of their sale will go to the charity, Kids Company.Here are just four of the fabulous events happening on the night.

Flying High www.glamourmagazine.co.uk

If you only buy one jacket this season, make sure it's an aviator. Like a leather biker jacket, but with the added cool (and cosiness) of a shearling collar, this is one trend that works just as well on the catwalk as on the street. Check out Burberry and Julien MacDonald for runway inspiration.

Britney Be Lookin Hot! www.stylebitches.com

Do we still say feeerce? What’s the latest fashiongusto word on the block?

Anyway - L and I were watching old Britney videos the other night - it was ACTUAL research - and we were all a-membering how ridiculously hot and in shape she was.. and then look at what the internet delivered today! A photo, no less, of her looking all healthy and toned once more! I for one am on the side of ‘every figure is lovely, but being healthy is better than not being healthy..’ which is a very long title for a side to take. Anyway, she’s lukin’ well and there’s grand drying outside today.

Selfidges vs D&G www.vogue.co.uk

FROM next spring, Selfridges will no longer stock Dolce & Gabbana after an alleged dispute between the department store and the designer brand. It has been claimed that the falling out happened after Selfridges proposed changes to Dolce & Gabbana's in-store positions and those of its D&G line.

Charli London is a new brand based on easy luxe separates with a core of super-soft jersey basics, clean and refined silhouettes are introduced to an avant-garde urban provocative ideal and edited into an accessible collection. Like the brand itself, women who wear Charli stand out. The collection is the essence of a new wave of London style- wearable, unpretentious and alluring.

Sensual and raw fabrics can be paired up for a city feel in the week and relaxed sophistication at the weekend. Charli continues to create perfect fitting, elegant designs which can be worn belted or loose, layered or on its-own. Every Style can be worn dressed-up or dressed-down- worn with current trends or worn classically. The core-basics such as signature long camisole vests, palazzo pants and yoga trousers continue each season- with the collection being updated each season with specially developed fabrics, beautiful natural colour palettes and directional designs, each garment is made using both traditional and innovative high-fashion techniques to ensure the best possible quality and cut.

Always aspiring, always renewed, modern luxury.

So Sheer www.mariankihogo.com

This outfit totally depicts my state my mind with regards to the weather. The Sun has gone into hiding but I am struggling to say goodbye. The light print silk dress and sheer pants were my unconscious quest to hold on to the last remnants on the English summer. The sheer pants were discovered in a thrift shop for £4. They work in a variety of guises.

Marc Jacobs Creating 'plus size' Range www.cosmopolitan.co.uk

Marc Jacobs has become the first major fashion house to announce its making a collection in sizes above a UK 14.

Although the project is a while off the president of the designer label confirmed on Twitter "we are in the very beginning stages of talking to a partner about plus sizes", meaning women size 16 and above will no longer feel so ignored by high end fashion.

Flairy Maxi's www.thesartorialist.blogspot.com

Summer in New York is full of young women in long print dresses. Too often though the dresses are bland, overly basic and usually carrying a cheap looking print. Sometimes they seem like the modern version of the thoughtless housedress.

Silk Harems on Mortgage Night www.whatkatiewore.com

We met with a mortgage advisor last night. Turns out, if we’re ever going to get onto the property ladder, Katie’s going to have to stop blowing all of our pennies on tights and I’m going to have to switch to a less premium gin.

What Would Sienna Wear www.whowhatwear.com

Like leopard accents, military-inspired garb, and diaphanous button-ups, when it comes to Sienna Miller, what began as a style crush has blossomed into what we can only deem a life-long sartorial love affair. Logging countless appearances in What Was She Wearing: Answers!, Trend Reports and now making a comeback appearance in today's What Would She Wear story, Miller's unique blend of upscale gypset style and boho chic aesthetics never fails to intrigue us—and you!

GAH, I know they are so wrong... but so right!

Going Grey? www.thesylebitches.com

OK I was fine with last years pastel hair trend; I even kinda dug the peachy shades. But straight up premature aging on purpose? Erm…how about no?! Since supermodel Kristen McMenamy appeared on the cover of Vogue embracing her natural grey hair celebs have been channelling their inner SuperGran like no man’s business.

On the Street www.thesatorialist.com

What makes Italians looks so slim?

What helps them look so refined when casually dressed?

The back dart on their shirts is a big factor.

ps. also note how meticulously the sleeves are rolled-up in both examples
