Now, it's not often than vintage shops are graced with celebrities [unless you count Lily Allen's 'Lucy in Disguise.' Which doesn't count. As it's hers. And she freakin' lives there] but TWO WEEKS ON THE TROT now, we've been graced with celebrities. Last week, we had synth-munching rockers Crystal Castles. Fair play, they're pretty big. But this week, THIS WEEK, we had a starlett who makes them look like Mr. Sheen. Stepping onto english shores, creator and designer of 'All Things Nommy' HAYLEY EVANS touched down for a one-off Vintage Wardrobe signing. Words can't express the love shown for Sri Lankan design mogul, constantly in the public eye. A picture speaks a thousand words and so here's what the press are labelling 'Hayley-Gate' in images....
Revelers waiting with an 'I love Hayley' sign as the designer was airlifted in.
A birds-eye shot of fans squashed in down North Lane, Headingley.
It all proved too much for some fashion fans - this girl fainted on the spot, proclaiming 'but i just LOVE her so much!'
The decimation of The Vintage Wardrobe post-signing. It's a good job Kieran and Nicole are handy with a dustpan and brush...
Inconsolable fans who didn't make it to the signing. For them, their lives were over.
As you can see, quite the day. After many smiling faces and a fair few tears, Hayley alongside a full police escort took off form the Halifax hele-pad to sunnier shores, nursing quite the friction burn. Kept strictly under wraps, medical officials predict that 8 hours of vicious signing have left Evans with a hand not too dissimilar to this...
Ouch. Rumoured to have a book signing in Lithuania next week, the designer is set to spit instead of sign copies brought to her by fans, a gesture worth it's weight in gold on Ebay/ the black market.
Join us next week for more tales of celebrity shoppers - you never know who is going to walk through that door.
