Wedgwood swaps pottery for fashion - as Topshop unveils clothing inspired by iconic prints
It marks a major departure for Wedgwood which has been making pottery for centuries.
A Wedgwood spokesman said: "Focusing on eccentric tea party glamour with a devil-may-care casualness, Topshop has worked with us to create a 'Cupid' pattern from Jasperware, the most famous of Josiah Wedgwood's prints.
"The iconic light blue jasper colour, which was popular in the design, has also inspired the wash of Topshop's high-waisted 1980s-inspired jeans.
"A non-precious take on garden party style has also seen the creation of the 'Blackbird' print, inspired by the best-selling Wedgwood pattern Wild Strawberry, featuring finely-drawn leaves, flowers and strawberries."
The new collection will hit Topshop's stores – including in Hanley – in February.

A Topshop spokesman said: "We have taken on the new season with a quintessentially British spin by collaborating with Wedgwood. It continues the heirloom prettiness of our Autumn collection.
"The new collection pairs relaxed tailoring with romantic softness. Customers can expect exaggerated French cuffs, collars, and oversize drop shoulders, along with plunging v-necks, daring flashes of leg and fluttering georgette sleeves.
"Our inspiration was a beautiful British rebel with an appetite for fun."
Marketing experts believe the collaboration is great news for Wedgwood.
Staffordshire University lecturer Vicky Roberts said: "When you think of Wedgwood, you think of ceramics. However, you don't think about the rich design heritage and pattern archive which has so much potential away from ceramics.
"This creative alliance, which refreshes the prints with new fabrics, will open up the Wedgwood brand to a younger demographic. "Meanwhile, Topshop now has access to the wonderful archive of Wedgwood patterns.
"I believe Topshop is hoping the prints will inspire an emotional connection in older customers, who will be more familiar with the works of Wedgwood."
Vicky believes Topshop is trying to tap into the growing popularity of afternoon tea among women.
She added: "These are not clothes you'd wear for a night-out or to nip to the shops. They have a very specific audience. This signals an exciting and modern change in direction for the Wedgwood brand and may well lead to more collaborations."
Fashion design graduate Holly Nancarrow – who owns the HollyCrow boutique in Leek – cannot wait to see the clothes.
The 31-year-old, from Leek, said: "The collection sounds fantastic. Something like this will raise awareness of Stoke-on-Trent's heritage with the pottery industry. The fact that a big brand like Topshop has decided to use the designs of Wedgwood for inspiration is great."

Lauren Budd is an example Wholesale Lingerie
Lauren Budd is an example of a model who did not let herself get satisfied with the public attention she received early in her modelling career and now she is about to reap the benefits for staying motivated and focused on improving her modelling.

Modelling photos of the beautiful English model have surfaced which show her looking stunning for various clients. However, when some social media fashion observers compare her modelling photos of several months ago or even a year to those of the Summer of 2014 and September 2014 there is a distinct difference noticeable in the eyes of model professionals. Her body like many models has become fitter but her facial expressions and focus that she has shown in her photo shoots has become much more developed.
In one photo that some fashion fans and social media fashion observers have found on the Internet she is wearing a violet 'bodycon' lingerie shapewear outfit and her sensual facial expression brings attention to her beautiful eyes and the makeup that makes them so prominent.

As a young model with a fantastic body sometimes she would rely solely on her sensual physique to 'sell' the clothing or keep the attention of viewers but now as a more experienced model she is using her 'total' package to sensational effect.
Fashion fans and some social media fashion observers are very impressed with how she is able to make a one piece lingerie bodycon outfit into a sexy outfit that has led to men discussing her 'emergence' as a model on their social media websites and in conversation throughout the Internet.
Lauren Budd is an English model who is now the total package as a model and who is on the radar screens of social media fashion bloggers both in and out of England.

Steve James' Life Itself, Alan Hicks' Keep on Keepin' On, Gabe Polsky's Red Army and several others are formidable contenders, but Citizenfour, Laura Poitras' highly-anticipated new documentary about Edward Snowden, the NSA contractor-turned-famous/infamous whistleblower whose information Poitras and fellow journalist Glenn Greenwald helped to bring to the attention of the world, is going to be very hard to beat in this season's best documentary feature Oscar competition.
This authoritative portrait of Snowden — the first-ever late addition to the main slate of the New York Film Festival in the fest's 52-year history — had its world premiere at Alice Tully Hall on Friday night, where its end-credits and its filmmaker's post-screening introduction were both greeted with prolonged standing ovations. RADiUS-TWC released a trailer of the film on Friday and will distribute it in the U.S. starting on Oct. 24.

Citizenfour marks the third installment in what Poitras has called her "trilogy about America post-9/11." The first, My Country, My Country (2006), which looked at Iraqis under U.S. occupation, was Oscar-nominated. The second, The Oath (2010), which focused on Yemenis who wound up at Guantanamo Bay, was not. Meanwhile, the latest entry — which derives its title from the name under which Snowden initially introduced himself to Poitras online — is the most polished and engaging of the three, most industry insiders with whom I spoke after the screening seemed to feel.

The film, much of which Poitras shot when she and Greenwald traveled to Hong Kong to meet Snowden for the first time in June 2013, offers an unprecedented look into the motivations, mindset and character of the then-29-year-old as he made his fateful decision to leak top-secret government documents about secret government surveillance of citizens to the press. It paints him as an intelligent, charming and actually quite funny character — but, it must be acknowledged, that portrait was crafted by a friend.
Poitras — who never features her own image on screen, despite being present for and integrally involved with most of the events that the film documents — clearly was not a disinterested observer chronicling a story wherever it led her. Instead, she might be called a collaborator: she engaged with Snowden like a friend; helped him to achieve his objectives; housed him in her own hotel room when his became unsafe; and even advised him, at times, with Greenwald, about how to help himself. (Greenwald asks on camera, at one point, "How do we do this in the right way?")

This will bother some viewers — but not necessarily the 200 or so members of the Academy's documentary branch, who actually have quite a history of nominating docs by filmmakers who used their films to question the conduct of the American government. Among others: The Panama Deception (1991); Waco: The Rules of Engagement (1997); The Fog of War (2003); Sicko (2007); Taxi to the Dark Side (2007); GasLand (2010); Inside Job (2010); The Invisible War (2012); and, earlier this year, Dirty Wars, which was co-produced by, co-written by and centers around Jeremy Scahill — who was also an advisor on, is featured in and appeared at the Tully on Friday night on behalf of Citizenfour.
In other words, Citizenfour, installment three of a trilogy, appears to be on track to produce Oscar nomination number two for Poitras — and perhaps even Oscar victory number one.

In Disney's animated film Big Hero 6, out Nov. 7, a group of smart kids and a robot fight evil. That meant that the actors had to voice characters who were running, jumping and fighting, which is not so easy to do while sitting in a recording studio.
At New York Comic Con, Genesis Rodriquez (Honey Lemon), Jamie Chung (Go Go Tomago), T.J. Miller (Fred), Ryan Potter (Hiro Hamada) and Scot Adsit (robot Baymax) show USA TODAY how they warmed up their voices for animated action, and what distinguishes a human voice from a robot one.
