>> Hilary Alexander confirmed over the weekend that she is retiring as fashion director at The Daily Telegraph come the end of June. She will be replaced by two fashion writers from The Times UK, Lisa Armstrong and Luke Leitch. But she's not retiring full stop, she tweets: "It's retirement not disappearance!" At the end of June, she will continue doing freelance for a year, with one page in the Telegraph UK a month. And: "I will keep on tweeting; I . . . am hoping [sic] to go to Uni next year and study archaeology! Think of the clothes!"
