There are plenty of celebrations as we kick off with Cannes Film Festival tomorrow and early next month, Queen Liz' Diamond Jubilee, it's going to be absolutely huge!
However, most recently I stumbled across the 'Great British Fashion Stamp set' by Royal Mail, featuring 10 Famous and most loved British Designers iconic designs. The designs as featured on faceless models as below, go back as far as the Second World War and was photographed by one of my all time fave fashion photographers, Sølve Sundsbø. These are on sale from today in the UK stamp collectors! They've even got a framed stamp collector's edition for sale here!

A classic blue suit by Paul Smith, who first broke into fashion in the 1970's
Royal Mail are also issuing these commemorative stamps in honour of the Queen's Jubilee, I can't believe it's been 60's years since her accession to the throne.
What stylish ways to push the envelope?! Any favourites here?
