Letter: Passion for fashion

From Miss Caroline Lang

Sir: How nice to see a fashion photograph on the front page of the Independent today. Far from being the 'silly season' referred to by Lynne Ferguson in her letter (12 October), the British fashion industry is excellent and needs all the notice and support it can get; quite apart from which, the photographers involved produce some of their most exciting pictures when photographing other people's creations.

In the midst of all the economic gloom and doom, a little levity goes a long way: even if we cannot afford the clothes, we can dream, can't we?

Yours faithfully,

CAROLINE LANG
