It’s the worst hit inflation ever globally. On the wake of the steeping financial abyss, a cool style funda is zooming into the art of living. Call it fashion frugalist! Creating fashion accessories out of the rubbish is now a craze. Topping the list is tailor made bags out of tattered rags. Second hand things are hugely making a comeback. The celeb brigade is the first to dig their luck. Farming, pot-planting, cloth swapping, pig-feeding, everything is just too cool.

It’s always a trend when the top-shot juggernauts flaunt it. Trendsetters, role model, call it what you may, the commoners and the mass celebrity fan followers are doing just the same. They are finally falling into the shoes of the high-street characters.

The retail chains in US shares a very gloomy forecast. What is more shocking is that there will be no holiday parties during the year end and this is definitely going to kick off a devastating slow down in the clothing industry. However the big names from the film fraternity are joining noble causes – cloth swapping for charity.

Among the A-listers of the Hollywood brigade, actress Lindsay Lohan is swapping clothes at the Visa Swap Event in London. Other names include Kylie Minogue, Helena Bonham Carter and Naomi Campbell.

Naomi Campbell is most well-known for attacking her employees and throwing temper tantrums much like a child, but her days of losing control over her anger may soon be coming to an end.

Rumours are spreading about Campbell possibly tying the knot with current boyfriend Vladimir Doronin. According to the Sunday Mirror, Campbell has invited close friends to celebrate a special occasion with her and given them no more details except a date just before Christmas. After swearing them to secrecy, Campbell divulged that they should be prepared to travel to Moscow which is, not very surprisingly, now being rumoured as Doronin’s hometown. Campbell and billionaire Doronin met at the Cannes film Festival in May of this year and have been dating since. The couple have been quite cosy spending much time together and were spotted vacationing together just last week.

The news has hit the street barely a day after news about Doronin supposedly bought Campbell an emerald and diamond ring, but Campbell’s lawyers continue to deny the news of an approaching marriage and have even rubbished the news of her visiting Russia this month.

The fashion industry seems to be dodging the aged old myth that a young aspiring model can’t be the poster girl for any brand endorsement. Bucking the trend Australian model Mlyssa Sutherland has recently bagged a fabulous assignment with world-renowned fashion designer Calvin Kleim alias CK, as he is known in the fraternity.

Alyssa is just 26 years old and is raring to go with an attitude that might give the likes of Naomi Campbell and Gemma Ward a run for the big bucks. She is being signed for the CK brands latest yoga line. Sutherland will be the face and body for the line “Performance’. This definitely comes as a shocker for the older model battalion when the big names such as Linda Evangelista (one of the oldest supermodel), Christy Turlington, Claudia Schiffer and Naomi were making a comeback again to the world of fashion. Sutherland might not be a favourite among the biggie designers but she has been gracing the magazine covers and scorched the ramp.
