Location: Stoke-on-Trent | Aisleyne will be attending the Drapers Awards 2007 at Grosvenor House on Weds 21st November 2007. She will be presenting the 'Womenswear Retailer of the Year' Award.
http://www.drapersawards.co.uk/
This is on the same evening as the November Club4Climate party, so Aisleyne will be multi-tasking and attending both events. |

| I was wondering whether she'd be awarding Primark another prize, but this is for independent stores, so they're in other categories instead...

Independent Womenswear Retailer of the Year
Axle Woman, Jersey
Fall Woman, Cheshire
Fran and Jane, Dublin
Lily B, Ilkley
Marys of Enfield, Hertfordshire
Sarah Coggles, York |

Location: Scottish Borders | Ash always does a good job at these things, which is probably why she's being asked to do more of this kind of thing nowadays.  |
|

|
| I wonder if she'll do the announcement in the style of her Screenwipe links tonight?   |

| Looking at how many will be there, and which organisations they represent, this looks like an excellent opportunity for Aisleyne to have such a high profile role. Surely some modelling gigs should result. |

So who do you reckon will win? I hope it's Lily B of Ilkley, as most people are aware of the appalling clothes shortages in the area thanks to the following song...

Aisleyne and her two guests will all be wearing very special dresses on Wednesday. Ash will also be wearing another very special dress on Thursday...

Is this connected with the brand of clothing which Aisleyne is going to be associated with?

I'm sure all will become clear at a later date. |

| I'm looking forward to that. Meanwhile I'm sure Aisleyne will bring her unique style to whatever she wears on Wednesday and Thursday. |

No, I don't think she'll be wearing any of the emperor's old clothes. |

So an invite to be Aisleyne's guest now means getting "very specially dressed" by her, eh? She WILL be popular!
...but does Orlaith have to kit herself out on Thursday? (Doubtless Nikki will get Lipsy-ed up as usual.  ) |

I'm not sure about that and, before you ask, I don't know whether any other Aisleyne Limited directors will be very specially dressed either.  |

I'm even surer about this uniqueness now.

Sue-Elise (Mis-Teeq) will now be replacing Orlaith, whose baby has flu. |

Shame about Orlaith (and her babby of course) but that seems like a decent substitution.
We have kind of a Sugababes set-up now, innit?

Well, after a clothes range and TV series, a pop group would be a good next step. So anybody got a name in mind? |

| How about "So unique" ? |

I would've suggested Unique 3, if the name hadn't already been taken...

| The girls were a little bit late, so there probably won't be any arrival pics of them cropping up on the photo sites. However, there should be some leaving pics. |

I see the rollover caption mentions that they are "celebrating Aisleyne's new line in clothes".

| There are 12 pics at present in the gallery on the Drapers website.
Either there are more pics to come or they are totally clueless about who's important to include.

Well, it looks like they've failed to include the presenter, Simon Astell, as well!
However, I'm not sure where you got that link from, as that page isn't linked to on their site. So I reckon you're looking at work in progress. |

Oh, yeah, it looks that way - how odd. Maybe I clicked while stuff was still loading to get that page up. I'll let 'em off for now. |

Actually, I think you probably followed the link from this page...
http://www.drapersawards.co.uk/winners.htm
So it may be the final gallery after all. Their site layout is a bit odd at the moment. |
