Twenty8Twelve's Savannah Miller checks in with Chic, and for that alone, we love her.

"On Sunday, my good friend, Plum Sykes, asked me to be on the judging panel for the wearable art festival in our local village, Painswick. Obviously, with Plum being involved, this was one fashion-fabulous event! Keith Allen was our compere and other judges include the incredible milliner Stephen Jones, Detmar Blow, Beatrix Ong, Daniel Chadwick and Lulu Guinness. The festival was set up by local fabric hero, Tim Davies, as a way to get the community to come together and be creative. And crikey! What a turnout! I was so impressed with the effort that everyone had made, particularly the little children who showed some amazing imagination with very limited resources - a lot of the garments were made from recycled materials.  Check out the Gallery for some of my favourites from the day. Watch this space, I predict this lot will go far...
