Roland Mouret Brings Star Quality to Gap Chain

Fashion designer Roland Mouret launched his latest venture today - a collection of ten dresses for high street giant Gap.

Standing with top models Lily Cole, Kim Noordaa and Luca Gadjus wearing the star pieces from the collection, it looks certain that the man behind the ultra-glamorous Galaxy dress, is set to have another amazing hit on his hands.

The range is likely to cause the same level of interest as when Stella McCartney launched her collection for Swedish chain store H&M last year.

But anyone expecting Mouret simply to run up affordable versions of past styles - worn by actresses such as Cameron Diaz, and Rachel Weisz and already copied so extensively by the high street - will be in for a surprise.

Fresh from signing a deal with pop entrepreneur Simon Fuller last month, the designer has worked closely with the in-house Gap design team in London.
