Debenhams Breaks Ranks and Launches New Season with Designer Discounts

Debenhams has just announced it will be lowering prices at the beginning of the upcoming fashion season, instead of at the end.

2010-09-09
LONDON, ENGLAND, September 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) Department store retailer Debenhams turned the convention of the sale on its head by reducing prices at the start of the Autumn/Winter season, rather than the end of it.

The innovative move sees tens of thousands of new season lines reduced by up to 25 per cent, across new to store stock including womenswear, accessories, menswear, childrenswear, home, cosmetics, lingerie, sports and leisure and gifting.

The move will no doubt be popular with consumers, with many remaining cautious due to the continuing, challenging economic climate following spending cuts and the 'will we, wont we' double-dip recession debate.

So extensive are the 'introductory offers' that even top designers - Betty Jackson, Julien Macdonald, Jasper Conran, John Rocha, Matthew Williamson and Henry Holland - will see their exclusive to Debenhams, diffusion collection prices fall just before their mainline offerings grace the catwalks at London Fashion Week.

"Retailers discount at a time that suits them to help sell tired end of season stock," said Michael Sharp, Debenhams deputy chief executive.

"This move turns that idea totally on its head.  It offers customers discounts across the store on the very latest products, meaning they can pick up this season's must-haves at sale prices," added Michael Sharp.

"I have said it before and I will say it again. We are more determined than ever to deliver designer clothes at prices everyone can afford.  Nowhere else on the high street can you see so many fantastic offers all under one roof."

Joining these exclusive to Debenhams designers will be famous high street names that have an offer in the retailer's stores including; Oasis, Dorothy Perkins, Coast, Warehouse, Eastex, Planet, Wallis,  Levis, Lee, Dune, Dyson and Denby plus many more which will also be available at knock down prices.

Customers can also shop for the sale items from their home, as they can get all the deals from Debenhams.com and get their shopping delivered to their house.

In addition, by using Debenhams' 'collect from store' service, customers can get their new season deals delivered directly to their nearest store.

And for the first time, the introductory offers will be available in eight countries overseas including France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, United States, Australia and New Zealand via Debenhams.com.

Stores will be open longer over the four day new season launch extravaganza with doors open from 9.00am to 10.00pm.

Can we spot volcanoes on alien worlds? Astronomers say 'yes'

Can we spot volcanoes on alien worlds? Astronomers say yes
2010-09-08
Volcanoes display the awesome power of Nature like few other events. Earlier this year, ash from an Icelandic volcano disrupted air travel throughout much of northern Europe. Yet this recent eruption pales next to the fury of Jupiter's moon Io, the most volcanic body in our solar system. Now that astronomers are finding rocky worlds orbiting distant stars, they're asking the next logical questions: Do any of those worlds have volcanoes? And if so, could we detect them? Work by theorists at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics suggests that the answer to the ...

NIH study shows how insulin stimulates fat cells to take in glucose

2010-09-08
Using high-resolution microscopy, researchers at the National Institutes of Health have shown how insulin prompts fat cells to take in glucose in a rat model. The findings were reported in the Sept. 8 issue of the journal Cell Metabolism. By studying the surface of healthy, live fat cells in rats, researchers were able to understand the process by which cells take in glucose. Next, they plan to observe the fat cells of people with varying degrees of insulin sensitivity, including insulin resistance–considered a precursor to type 2 diabetes [http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov]. ...

Beta-carotene is converted in the body to vitamin A. The researchers found that the beta-carotene in the corn was converted to vitamin A at a higher rate than what's predicted for corn, and higher than the rate for beta-carotene ...
