Campbell + Clinton Conspiracy?
From Fashion Net News
The juiciest rumor of the week is the alleged affair between Naomi
Campbell and Bill Clinton. In the wake of Campbell's announcement
that she is dating the former president's legal aid Doug Band, suspicious
minds are inquiring whether the famously choleric
Campbell is not indeed shagging Bill. Doug Band has apparently acted as a liaison between Billy and his babes in the past, (he took Monica
Lewinsky to the 
Congressional Ball in 1995), and could possibly be posing
as a front.
We hope for his sake that he won't pose as Naomi's punching
bag.
But now the Choleric Campbell has struck again. This time, British innerwear Splendour was the target of her fury. Naomi walked out of an ad campaign shoot after she caused some conflict on the set by refusing to wear a thong that she had previously agreed to wear. From what we understand, it would be wise for Miss Campbell to start consulting Miss Manners. All major modeling scouts have been looking for someone to replace her for years, but so far, the hunt for the "new Naomi" has been unsuccessful. As one of the top star launchers put it: "Why else do you think she's working?"

Experts Develop Bra With Magnetic Clasp
Lingerie designers in France have come to the rescue of men by developing a "fumble-free" bra featuring a magnetic clasp that undoes with a simple twist.
The new £35 ($54) bra, which will hit shop shelves this autumn, has a gold magnetic clasp and has been tested to make sure it does not affect the wearer's health or interfere with mobile phone signals.
Experts at Bolero say the new clasp will help amorous men who struggle to undo traditional bra hooks and be of benefit to the 80 per cent of women who put their bras on back to front before pulling them around.
"Men have always found the fastening system to be barbaric", said a Bolero spokeswoman.

SOUTH AFRICA: US Clothing Exports Up 151 Per Cent
Clothing exports to the US have risen by 151 per cent over the past two years as companies take advantage of duty-free access under the Africa Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) an industry association bosses said yesterday.
Clothing exports last year were worth almost R2 billion according to Jack Kipling, the chairman of the Export Council for the Clothing Industry. He added that exports to the US were growing at a faster rate than to Europe, where import duties were being phased out gradually.
In the past the US and Europe have both accounted for around 40 per cent of South African clothing exports, but the US share has now grown to about 60 per cent.
