Retail therapy: Moss back on top

Kate Moss

Kate Moss' spectacular return to supermodel status continues, with Versace announcing she will take centre stage in its new Supermodels campaign.

The autumn/winter 2006 campaign will feature in publications worldwide next month. The sexy line-up, shot by Mario Testino, includes Christy Turlington, Daria Werbowy, Angela Lindval and Caroline Murphy clad in skintight, shiny black Versace.

Just 12 months after critics declared she would be unable to recover from her cocaine shame - Burberry publicly dropped her as the face of its brand after pictures of alleged drug use hit the front pages - Moss has been welcomed back into the fashion fold.

She features alongside Stella Tennent and Bryan Ferry in Burberry's upcoming 150th anniversary campaign, and is the star of a new Calvin Klein jeans campaign.

Wizards of Oz

To brighten winter days with colour, head for St Lukes, where the Australian label Decjuba has opened its first New Zealand store on level one. This isn't the place if your wardrobe staple is black - here the clothes are varied and vibrant.

Decjuba's spring/summer collection features wool knits, silk chiffon shirts, fine jersey dresses and basic tanks.

On the scent

There's no stopping Kylie Minogue. Not only is she preparing for her new Showgirl tour after recovering from breast cancer, the singer is also launching her own fragrance.

Minogue has signed a deal with Coty Inc - the world's largest fragrance house, which last year released Sarah Jessica Parker's signature perfume Lovely - to produce the scent later this year.

"The launch of my new fragrance coincides with a new chapter of my life," says Minogue.

Throw in the towel

Household Linens has closed its popular outlet store in East Tamaki. But don't despair, it is now selling all of its end-of-line linens at Dressmart in Onehunga.

Sheets, duvets, pillowcases, throws and tea towels are available at discount price.
