Selfridge. Both will be on-board before the all important Christmas trading
period.

June 2004.

Recent Initiatives include

   *We have been appointed by Miss Sixty as their exclusive on-line retailer
    partner in the UK.
   *From November, we replace Boden, as Egg's exclusive apparel partner
   *We will be live on Amazon.com as a preferred apparel partner before
    Christmas

business to be in excellent shape as we gear up for Christmas."
