From 3rd – 6th April all eyes will be on Birmingham as the very first Style in the City event takes place. The four day extravaganza will be a celebration of fashion and shopping, with a series of catwalk shows, exhibition stands, in-store activities and pampering sessions.
Kelly Osbourne is the latest name to be confirmed on the celebrity bill for this years inaugural event in Birmingham. The sassy and stylish Osbourne will host the event's Catwalk Show which will showcase a host of international fashion names such as Alexander McQueen, Chloe, Emilio Pucci, Alice Temperley, Stella McCartney, Philip Lim, Christian Louboutin and more.
"Kelly is an emerging light in the fashion scene - admired by designers and stylists for her individual style, forthright views and classic English eccentricity. She is perfect to host this event", Tiffanie Darke, Sunday Times Style Magazine Editor.
Alongside Kelly Osbourne, opening and closing each catwalk show, will be home-grown Birmingham model Gabriella, recently signed to front the latest Agent Provocateur campaign.
These names boost Style in the City's already glamorous offering which includes the UK launch of Trinny & Susannah's Style Academy. The new academy will see television duo Trinny Woodall and Susannah Constantine bring elements of their popular programmes to the stage! Visitors will leave with a foolproof formula for making the most of what they've got to look great in any situation.

The Sunday Times Style in the City is a sophisticated new event aimed at fashion savvy women that combines glamour, treats, entertainment and retail indulgence.
The concept will be unique in that it will not be located at one venue. A full programme of events, promotions and activities will be scheduled at top retailers and venues across the city. Visitors can expect to be escorted around the city in style, in dedicated transport.
At each of the shopping hot spots, ticket holders will be ushered into private areas, where they will have exclusive access to private fashion shows, makeovers, masterclasses from well-known stylists, spa treatments, live music and dance events.
Tickets will cost £25 for one day pass. A Platinum Pass – which includes exclusive treats, lunch and a glass of champagne – is only £65. Entry to the opening night gala party will be £45.
