Not a Danish ebike in sight

Advert for Siemens dishwasher ......

Across Germany's northern-most border with Denmark you'll find an incredible superstore called Fleggaard. There, you can buy everything you need - tubs of gummi bears, cases of wine, industrial strength dishwashing soap - at prices 30% cheaper than you'll find in Denmark. It is Denmark's Costco, packaged as a German loophole. This is their advertisement! The 100+ women do stunts in the air - while free-falling - holding hands to spell out "Half-off on Dishwasher at Fleggaard." You'd be hard-pressed to find a man in Denmark who hasn't seen and fallen in love with this commercial. It was geared strictly to men. The ad is real! Here is the link......

here is some stuff for you girls from today’s Grauniad

But London fashion designers did not only pull together over an idealised notion of the city. They also produced a coherent suggestion of what clothes you may want to wear next season. For autumn, the London look is crisper, sharper and darker than this summer's pastels. The 50s references have been thrown out, and the 20s ones confined to partywear, with the focus on sleekly modern shapes. You will be wearing red or purple or teal, paired with black, quite possibly with a digitalised floral print somewhere in the mix. Necklines will be simple and shoulders square, but not exaggerated. Skirts will be tight, but not short. Lace will be black, and leather trim will be everywhere. The printed dresses at Peter Pilotto, the peony-print coat dresses at Jonathan Saunders, and the black lace sheathed silks at Erdem all reminded me of the cheongsams from In The Mood For Love. Something about that cheongsam silhouette – its slickness or its secrecy, its sexiness or its air of self-containment – seemed to appeal to London designers this season.

Christopher Kane did what London designers are brilliant at, taking something that's considered bad taste, and making it covetable. Moire – that oil-effect fabric that, as Kane explained cheerfully, he associates with coffin linings – was used to make brilliant parma-violet dresses, edged with black leather in origami-sharp angles. Antonio Berardi did something different again: his collection, inspired by Rococo interiors and Italian sculpture, was less about trends than about the beautiful clothes that the formidable, fabulous woman who wears Berardi will want to buy. The evening dresses encrusted with swirls of moulded sequins were Oscar-worthy, but even better was a black coat appliqued with black roses, the individual chiffon petals of which curled in over the jet beads at the centre. Berardi explained that as the chiffon ages the petals will unfurl, and the beads beneath will begin to emerge. In other words, this is a coat that will get more and more beautiful as it gets older. "You know what? I don't care about trends," he said. "I buy clothes because I fall in love with them, and that's why I want
