           EEOC Sues Victoria's Secret 
PHILADELPHIA - The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed a lawsuit against Victoria's Secret asserting that one of its lingerie shops didn't honor a promise to give a Baptist saleswoman most Sundays off so she could attend church services. 
The lawsuit said managers at a suburban Philadelphia Victoria's Secret promised Lauren Ellerson when she was hired that she wouldn't be required to work more than one Sunday a month. 
Instead, Ellerson said the store in Langhorne regularly scheduled her to work on the Sabbath and that managers ignored her request to be given the third Sunday of each month off so she could receive Holy Communion.

Patricia gets the Guiding Light
Patricia Field has added another costuming gig to her "Sex and the City" duties. The magenta-haired stylist has signed on to help the women of daytime drama "Guiding Light" look just as beguiling as HBO's most fashion-forward foursome.
Effective today, the Emmy Award-winning costumer will be consulting designer to the CBS soap, the longest-running daily program in broadcast history.
"We are thrilled to have Patricia Field join us at Guiding Light," said the show's executive producer, Paul Rauch. "Her unique and exceptional sense of style will help put our fictional town of Springfield, USA on the map along with fashion capitals Paris, Milan and New York City."
Field has owned an eponymous Greenwich Village boutique for more than three decades and her House of Field label can be found in more than 100 stores. It wasn't until she signed on with HBO's sex-fueled smash hit in its first season though that the funky fashion icon started dictating fashion trends across the country.

    "Ask Andy"
Andy Weinstock has been in the fabric and textile business all his life, but professionally since 1969. 
"I love what I do, selling fabrics around the globe. I've met lots of interesting, creative, dynamic folks; some have become dear friends. I love to help new businesses find the things they need to become successful. It works for everyone." 
You can ask Andy questions about Fabrics at
               Andy@mcpetesez.com 


Hi Andy, I am interested in buying fabrics when I go to NYC. I want some bolts of quality, unique fabrics and a good selection of quality remnants. Can you suggest any places to shop in NYC?  Christene
Dear Christene: yes, there are lots of great places for fabrics in New York City.  Start your search in the Manhattan yellow pages, under Fabrics-wholesale. There are some retail front stores that also sell wholesale.  They are clustered between 36 and 40 th streets, West of Broadway.  Walk up and down the street, and stop in every store. You will find some of the most interesting fabrics available anywhere.  Have a great time. Good Luck, Andy

Andy, I am starting my own business designing sleepwear, could you please tell me the companies you think sell the best fabric for sleepwear?  Satin, flannel etc?  Thank you Greg & Debbie
Dear Greg & Debbie: visit the upcoming IFFE (International Fashion Fabric Expo) in New York City.  For information, visit www.fabricshow.com
. There are lots of great fabrics out there. It is mostly a matter of taste and fashion.  Make sure the fabrics you purchase meet or exceed the US standards for flame retardancy. Sleepwear is especially tricky.  Make sure you have enough insurance. Attend trade shows and ask a lot of questions.  Good Luck, Andy
