Well spotted

Article Abstract:

The most successful fashion models are those who look as though they have a soul, according to Ned Ambler, fashion industry talent scout. He visits many concerts, bars and restaurants in New York in order to find new models, and some people who he has discovered have gone on to have a successful and high profile career. He enjoys finding people who have no experience of the fashion scene and watching how they react when they are exposed to it.

Stand back Karan, Lauren and Klein

Article Abstract:

The Tommy clothing label aims to deliver a classic but modern image, according to fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger. He has become extremely popular in the US, partly as a result of his policy of keeping in close contact with customers. He attempts to show himself as a completely normal person, but some observers regard him as a ruthless self-promoter who acts as a corporate face for his corporate name.

Crunch comes to US newspapers

Article Abstract:

The US newspaper industry is facing severe problems with overstaffing and rising newsprint prices. At Times-Mirror, for example, new president and chief executive Mark H. Willes has taken radical action, closing down 'New York Newsday' and cutting 1,000 jobs at the 'Los Angeles Times.' Similar trends are being seen elsewhere in the industry.
