I have a lot of a soft spot for Westfield London. My other half Mary Portas helped launch it, and during my time as fashion news and features editor at Grazia I came up with the idea the we move the office in there for a week to make an issue of the magazine. It was a mad idea – and we had a total ball doing it. It took popping to the shops during the lunch break to a whole new dimension. We also won a Campaign award for doing it! As a result of all the Westfield involvement ( I was on site in a hard hat before launch, and live locally) I’ve spent more time than is seemly inside this wonderful behemouth of a shopping centre.
So I was happy to say yes to working on a project with the Westfield gang this week. The project, as evidenced by the above photograph, is called “Big Fashion Wardrobe”. The location is the same spot Grazia built our very real working office, and it is there for fashionistas to have a deeper experience of shopping at Westfield. It is also rather good on the feet as it is all in one space.
