Another Pixie with a passion for fashion is little Miss Lott – pint sized songstress and the latest celeb to put her autograph to fabric. The singer with a singer has been asked to design two ranges of clothing for popular highstreet retailer Lipsy.

In the past we’ve seen and spoken much about Kate’s cacks, Mischa’s totes and even the delights of Beth Ditto so what’s gonna be different about Pixies celeb-highstreet collaboration? Besides the fact she’s a current chart topper and all round idol to young wans up and down the kooky end of hype street… Well she has already designed a range of charity T-shirts for River Island and Moschino and has a genuinely good eye for vintage while embracing a one-off quirky image.

She recently said: “I love what Lipsy stands for and I am very excited at the thought of working with such a talented and creative team. It’s going to be great fun’’

She will create two lines for the brand – Pixie Festival will focus on feminine vintage-inspired dresses and denim pieces, while the second-  Pixie Party will combine punk and 80s vibes in a range of animal prints and studded pieces.

Some of Pixies past picks should give us an idea of what’s coming:
