In a desperate last plea to the weather-gods we bring you We Are Handsome's new swimwear range, The Streets - hoping that we might yet eek an Indian Summer out of a wash-out season.

The story of We Are Handsome is a phenomenally successful one: in just 24 months they are now stocked in over 26 cities and 18 countries - available at net-a-porter.com, Colette in Paris, Barneys NY, Harvey Nichols, Selfridges and Opening Ceremony to name a few. It's not hard to see why the label, founded by Australian designers Indhra Chagoury and Jeremy Somers, has taken off with their cool, fresh prints that you don't see on any other suits. Tiger face across the bottom of your bikini anyone?

The Streets is a bold new collection from We Are Handsome with a distinctly urban edge, including long sleeved body suits and full-length maxis with mesh and zip detailing, as well as their staple swimwear. Working with a range of artists and photographers to come up with inspiring prints there is a style and a pattern to suit anyone headed into the water - or just onto the beach.

As Fashion week draws ever nearer, one woman is on the lips of every Londoner.She has been a style icon ever since her 1928 debut and has inspired generationafter generation of girls to adopt polka dots, bows and over-sized shoes that falloff when you're running away from an escaped gorilla or a drunken pirate. Notmany 84 year olds can still pull that off. It is, the always illustrious, Miss MinnieMouse.

eBay and the British Fashion Council have teamed up their initiative to supportyoung British fashion talent with Walt Disney and asked a who's who ofupcoming designers to create their own "Minnie Must Haves". Giles Deacon,Richard Nicoll, Lulu Guinness, Tatty Devine and Michael van der Ham are just afew of the names who will be showcasing their garments and accessories at LFWbefore they are auctioned off online with all proceeds going to charity. Expectplenty of front row mouse ears to be blocking your catwalk views.

Phillip Lim is joining the world of black leather capes, scaling walls with web shot from the wrist, and phone box changes. The designer is launching "Kill The Night", the most fashionable of comics to illustrate his autumn/winter collection. Lim has co-written his very own comic with John Ostrander and enlisted Jan Duursema of Star Wars comic book fame to lend her drawing skills.

Clearly the designer has been thumbing through a lot of graphic novels of late - not only did pre-fall feature that punchy "KA-POW" print but autumn/winter was inspired by Sin City, V for Vendetta and neo-noir heroines too. Throughout the pages, each character wears Lim's most recent collection and the two lead characters are based on Lim's real friends. Exactly who was lucky enough to be sketched will be announced on the designer's Twitter and Facebook soon.

However, superhero speed is needed if you're going to get a copy as there are only limited numbers available. Head to 3.1philliplim.com from September 6th and sign up to nab one.
