Classic BBC Fashion Show to Return to UKTV Style

LONDON, August 17: UKTV Style has inked a deal with the BBC
and Haymarket Exhibitions to relaunch The Clothes Show two decades since it first aired on the British
pubcaster.

The channel has commissioned Shine Limited, in association
with Giant Film & TV, to produce the new series. The 10×1-hour show,
launching in October, features presenters such as Louise Redknapp, Caryn
Franklin and Brendan Courtney, reporting on the world of fashion.

“I wanted to introduce a fashion format to the channel and
felt it was the perfect time to re-launch The Clothes Show,” said Catherine Catton, the head of UKTV Style.
“It’s the ultimate television fashion brand and one which can meet the
challenge of delivering the latest trends, looks and styles from the catwalk
and high street in an accessible and inspiring way for today's audience. The
original series was must see viewing for me, so I'm delighted that UKTV Style
is revamping the brand and bringing it back to Sunday teatime as part of the
channel’s fashionable new look.”
