Debenhams Breaks Ranks and Launches New Season with Designer Discounts

Department store retailer Debenhams turned the convention of the sale on its head by reducing prices at the start of the Autumn/Winter season, rather than the end of it.

The innovative move sees tens of thousands of new season lines reduced by up to 25 per cent, across new to store stock including womenswear (http://www.debenhams.com/sale ), accessories, menswear, childrenswear, home, cosmetics, lingerie, sports and leisure and gifting.

The move will no doubt be popular with consumers, with many remaining cautious due to the continuing, challenging economic climate following spending cuts and the 'will we, wont we' double-dip recession debate.

So extensive are the 'introductory offers' that even top designers - Betty Jackson, Julien Macdonald, Jasper Conran, John Rocha, Matthew Williamson and Henry Holland - will see their exclusive to Debenhams, diffusion collection prices fall just before their mainline offerings grace the catwalks at London Fashion Week.

"Retailers discount at a time that suits them to help sell tired end of season stock," said Michael Sharp, Debenhams deputy chief executive.

"This move turns that idea totally on its head.? It offers customers discounts across the store on the very latest products, meaning they can pick up this season's must-haves at sale prices," added Michael Sharp.

"I have said it before and I will say it again. We are more determined than ever to deliver designer clothes at prices everyone can afford.? Nowhere else on the high street can you see so many fantastic offers all under one roof."

Joining these exclusive to Debenhams designers will be famous high street names that have an offer in the retailer's stores including; Oasis, Dorothy Perkins, Coast, Warehouse, Eastex, Planet, Wallis, ?Levis, Lee, Dune, Dyson and Denby plus many more which will also be available at knock down prices.

Customers can also shop for the sale (http://www.debenhams.com/sale ) items from their home, as they can get all the women's jackets online deals from Debenhams.com and get their shopping delivered to their house.

In addition, by using Debenhams' 'collect from store' service, customers can get their new season deals delivered directly to their nearest store.

And for the first time, the introductory offers will be available in eight countries overseas including France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, United States, Australia and New Zealand via Debenhams.com.

Stores will be open longer over the four day new season launch extravaganza with doors open from 9.00am to 10.00pm.

More Than the Usual Halloween Safety Tips From iZAPmen.com

Halloween is only a few days away so it's time to get all of your shopping done so you can go out and make the most of your weekend. According to iZAPmen.com, Halloween is celebrated by American adults more than any other holiday! That being said, you would imagine it's not just children piling tons of candy in their trick-or-treat bags. Many adults take part in the festivities as well, whether it is parents who chaperone their children or adults getting dressed up and going out to clubs, bars and parties. It is definitely an incredible holiday to celebrate but we must always remember to take the appropriate Halloween safety precautions whether you are a parent taking your child trick-or-treating or an adult having a good time with your friends. iZAPmen.com provides us with much more than the usual Halloween safety tips.

The children have come home from school after a day of showing off all their great costumes and characters and are ready to go get some candy! Surely the first thing that mothers think about is the safety of their children. Halloween is all in good fun, but mothers are well aware that their children are approaching and receiving candy from strangers. Here are some tips for moms to make sure that your child is kept out of harm's way. Always make sure that any candy that your child is given is properly wrapped so that you know it isn't tampered with. Anything that is loose or not wrapped correctly should be thrown out immediately. When your child selects a house that they want to go to, stay by their side at all times because that is the only way to ever really make sure that they do not disappear. Finally, avoid streets that do not have bright street lights. Surely there are plenty of streets in your neighborhood, so just make sure you are going down the ones that seem the safest to you. Wear bright clothing, carry flashlights and be sure to bring your cell phone to report any trouble.

When adults go on their own Halloween adventures, usually there is alcohol involved. With an abundance of vampires and alcohol, you need to always make sure to take the right precautions when going out. Some costumes often attract more attention than others which may cause unwanted incidents that can lead to very seri women's coats online ous consequences. An image of a drunk vampire who won't take "no" for an answer from a French maid may come to mind. There is nothing wrong with the costumes themselves, but we need to be as careful as possible. So here are some tips on how to avoid incidents when out on Halloween. Always travel with a group of friends and do not separate from them especially when wandering the streets from one place to another. For women, some costumes tend to be more revealing which often attracts more attention. Bring a light jacket with you that will not be a nuisance, in case you feel uncomfortable where you are. It will also help while you are walking the streets in a city where you are seen by more people.

Despite all of the tips above, the unexpected can always happen so you need to find the best way to protect yourself in the event a situation begins to take a turn from bad to worse. We spoke to the experts at iZAPmen.com regarding what to do in case you are put in uncomfortable situations or ever confronted with major problems. When we spoke to Tammy Taser of IZapmen.com, she said "I always keep my Taser C2 with me when I am going out on Halloween. It just gives me an even greater sense of security whether I'm dancing on Halloween or just out on the town with my friends on any night."

"I never leave home without my stun gun in my purse" says Suzy Stungun. "No matter what my situation, I know that no one will mess with me after a couple zaps from my stun gun.

Pepperspray Patti tells us how "her light and convenient pepper spray is with her no matter where she goes and that it will definitely be in her pocketbook this Halloween."

"I'll be the first one to tell you how much I love Halloween, but all of that fun can be ruined if you are not careful with the decisions you make or if you run into someone who is not making good decisions," says Mandy Mace. "My mace is definitely going to be locked and loaded this weekend!"

The beauty of these products is that when you take them with you on a Halloween adventure, it's not like you can't ever use them again! They will always be available for you to use no matter where you go. Moms can carry them as extra protection when with their kids or even alone. Adults can have them for when they go out to on dates, to parties, clubs or bars. It will just be so much more comforting knowing you have a backup plan in case of any kind of incident that might require you to defend yourself. Hopefully some of the self-defense products found on IZapmen.com, will help keep you and your loved ones safe this Halloween!

GoldenWear Apparel to Debut Line at 2011 Professional Golf Association Merchandise Show in Orlando this January

GoldenWear, a new brand of golf fashion designed for mature women golfers, will be presenting their golf clothing collections for the first time at the Professional Golf Association (PGA) Merchandise Show in Orlando, Florida this January 26 – 29, 2011. GoldenWear is looking forward to being a participant in one of the golf industry's largest trade shows. Created by Southern California golfer Darlene Harwick, the designs were born from a largely under-represented demographic in golf fashion - the mature woman. GoldenWear collections are chic while sporty with cuts a little fuller and lengths a little longer, in fabrics that flatter the mature body. All pieces in the collection fashion coats s are interchangeable, easy-care, and travel-friendly.

GoldenWear will be presenting the 'Coronado' collection and will also unveil 'Panther River.' Their first collection, Coronado, exemplifies stylish golf clothing for women, combines traditional and elegance in a classic navy and white color scheme detailed with Swarovski buttons and rhinestone zippers. The stunning white ultrasuede jacket with a large off-set crystal zipper is perfect for chilly golf days and après golf activities. The newest collection, Panther River, is a walk on the wilder side, in abstract, colorful animal prints with re-imagined details.

Women have been praising GoldenWear for its fit and design, with comments like, "I finally found something that looks great and doesn't have to be taken to the tailor!" And, "I've not yet reached my 'golden' years, but GoldenWear fits a 'real' woman."

The PGA Merchandise Show provides the opportunity for Darlene Harwick to showcase her collections to a large audience of golf apparel buyers, as well as media interested in her unique and targeted demographic within the golf apparel industry.

Darlene Harwick knows her market of golfers because she's one of them. She created GoldenWear to address the older women golfer who had been overlooked. Darlene's mantra: "Golf is more than a sport, it's a lifestyle. Enjoy! Look Golden on the Green."

For more information, visit their website at http://www.goldenwear.com or stop by booth 4290 at the show.

Global Market for Knit Underwear and Nightwear to Reach US$70.85 Billion by 2015, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

The intimate apparel market is driven mainly by style, and fashion with equal importance accorded to comfort, and novelty. The industry is marked by new fabric developments, and innovations in prettier, and more comfortable garment designs. The growing trend towards innerwear worn as outerwear has been richly beneficial to the lingerie market. The introduction of camisoles in trendy colors and T-shirts with built-in bras bear testimony to these trends. The market nevertheless is confronted with a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges. For instance, fierce competition has resulted in falling prices and a threatening shift of production to low-cost countries. In developed countries, aging population is pushing down growth opportunities. On the other hand, developing regions, hold immense potential for future growth, given their favorable demographics, rising standards of living, growing affluence and widespread adoption of Western lifestyles. Manufacturers are therefore fast expanding their business operations into South America, Central Europe and Asia. The lingerie market is in a state of transition, as both global brands and private-labels are re-assessing their respective market positions. Consumers in this segment generally tend to purchase more than necessary. Impulse purchases are rampant, and purchase decisions are typically based on feel-good factors, instincts, style and fitting rather than sheer necessity.

Ever changing consumer lifestyles, latest trends in fashion and style and innovations in fabric usage are the major factors driving the market for knit underwear and nightwear. Product markets expected to score the maximum gains in the upcoming years include seamless intimates such as seamless bras and panties, given consumer's desire for seamless and imperceptible undergarments. Demand for plus-size inner wear is rapidly expanding in Western markets. Stores now offer suitable lingerie to customers who earlier depended on specialists for customized innerwear clothing.

Akin to several other industries, the global economic crisis affected the world market for knit underwear and nightwear during the years 2008 and 2009. Mature, developed market of North America, Europe and Japan bore the maximum brunt of the economic instability, with sales slipping during the period. In contrast, the developing economies brushed past with marginal losses in sales. Surprisingly, the children's wear market witnessed the largest erosion in 2009 followed by the men's wear, with the market largely remaining afloat due to optimistic outlook in women's wear clothing. Nevertheless on the whole, the niche underwear and sleepwear market was more resilient to the economic crisis than the larger clothing industry and rebounded back on growth track by the year 2010, although at a slow rate of growth. Some of the notable changes the industry witnessed during the recessionary years included the influx of several retailers rendering the market more fragmented; market polarization of the luxury segment and increased popularity of the concepts 'exact fit' and value-for-money. The economic crisis considerably narrowed down the gap between the upper and lower end of the market as style differentiation almost vanished.

Europe dominates as the single largest regional market for knit underwear and nightwear, as stated by the new research report on Knit Underwear and Nightwear. The US and Asia-Pacific are the other two significant markets, trailing at a distance behind Europe. The three markets capturing a considerable share of the global market, literally set the rules and market direction. The Asia-Pacific market remained buoyant even during the economic recession, and supported by rapid growth from markets of China, India, Korea, Indonesia and Taiwan among others, is projected to register the overall fastest CAGR through 2015. By product segment, the global women's knit underwear and nightwear market is considered the most vibrant and dynamic, carrying the growth ahead e women's coats ven when sales in other segments plummeted. In the near term too, the segment is forecast to sail ahead at the fastest compounded annual rate through 2015.

The global Knit Underwear and Nightwear market is highly competitive and fragmented, with no single dominant player in the market for any national or worldwide brand. The market is characterized by the presence of numerous large and medium players vying fiercely for a share of the pie. Private label players also enjoy considerable clout in the market. Key participants profiled in the report include Benetton Group S.p.A, Bella Di Notte S.L, Berkshire Hathaway, Fruit of the Loom Inc., Cia Hering, Calvin Klein Inc., Delta Galil Industries Ltd, Donna Karan International Inc, Gunze Ltd, Jockey International Inc., Joe Boxer, Maidenform Brands Inc, The Bali Company, Triumph International, Tefron Ltd, Warnaco Group Inc, Wacoal Holdings Corp, and Wacoal America Inc, among others.

It's a very common conversation" de Bold says, "yet so many shows out there judge women in a negative way and I thought, instead of making fun of people with bad fashion sense, why not highlight the ones Tips: Find Street Fashion Online(may be you can find what you want on the oasap.com) who have done it right?"
