BRITISH DESIGNER SAYS SHOW MUST GO ON!

British designer, Jane McMillan's catwalk show in New York Olympus Fashion Week went down such a storm in NYC that over half of her 'Electric Rose' collection was stolen.

In London Jane was determined that the show must go on. She teamed up with Redken 5th Avenue NYC to reconstruct the entire show to ensure her guests had a memorable fashion and hair experience - even with only half a collection.

According to Jane: "I realised that one dress was missing and was totally devastated. This prompted us to check off the full inventory and it became horrifyingly apparent that 20 garments were actually missing! The collection had not yet been shown in London and it is a tragedy that no buyers will see it."

Guests were entertained by a surprising and spectacular show. Jane still hopes to retrieve the garments and is liaising with Detective Comer of the 20th precinct New York Police Department (Tel. 001 212 580 6414) who is investigating the case.
