Peacocks Ruffles its Feathers in the UK Fashion Press

The high street fashion brand picked up in three national newspapers, celebrating its great value style starting as low as GBP4.50.



    CARDIFF, WALES, July 21, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- High street fashion brand Peacocks continues to stake its claim as one of the UK's most reliable and affordable high street fashion brands as its forward-thinking news stories and products make their mark on the press this week beginning 18th July 2011.

Peacock's 'short shorts' news story, discussing the shortening measurements of inside seams on skirts and shorts in UK fashion, was picked up and made a feature in the Daily Star on Saturday, which stated:

"Clothes shop Peacocks reckons Brit babes are wearing shorter shorts and skirts than ever. With inside seam measurements on shorts now averaging less than three inches, the thigh is only just the limit."

And the brand is not just helping to make news stories. Peacocks products, dresses in particular, are popping up across the national media: Peacocks hero fashion has been featured in the Daily Mail for the fourth week running with its tan satchel chosen to accessorise a denim outfit.

And over at the Daily Mirror, a Peacocks by Design prom dress was selected as the perfect prom dress. Tess Daly also recommends a pair of their sparkly gold shoes as the perfect pair of shoes for a Saturday night out in her column.

Even The Sun is getting in on the act: its selection of outfits to suit different shapes includes a summer sandal to suit the curvy woman. Celebs on Sunday features the perfect outfit for different occasions including one of Peacocks' blazers as an essential item for a lunch date.

And finally for this week's media round up, following three celebrity weddings Sunday Times Style chooses chic wedding dresses featuring Peacocks' "Kate" wedding dress.
