Mark Heyes, television fashion guru & stylist to the stars…

You may recognise Mark from GMTV where he is fashion stylist for Lorraine Kelly on LK Today.

He started his fashion career by studying Graphic Design at the Glasgow School of Art.
He got a job on ‘She’s Got To Have It’ for Channel 4 immediately after graduating, having done fashion styling for newspapers and magazine whilst at college.

Mark chats to Shudoo about his crush on Cheryl Cole and his fave British shoe designer…

What do you think are the best Christmas heels? And what styles are big this party season?
Anything super-high and super-uncomfy! Embellished heels and outrageous platforms get my vote too. In particular anything by Nicholas Kirkwood – he’s a shoe genius.

What do you think of celebs such as Justin Timberlake, Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio wearing men’s Ugg boots? Would you wear them?
If anyone can get away with men’s Uggs it’s those three… in fact they could probably get away with wearing anything - I’m more of a Converse boy.

Which celeb would you most like to style and why?
Cheryl Cole – as I have a serious crush on her. She look’s amazing in anything but I’d love to push the boundaries with her – she sometimes plays it a bit safe

If you could swap shoes with any celeb, who would it be and why?
Kanye West…he’s a big fan of Lanvin, Louis Vuitton clothing and always dressed to perfection. I’d love to have a nosey in his wardrobe!

What would you say has been the best British fashion trend and why?
Without doubt punk. It’s the ultimate trend from the UK and still affects designers around the world today. In my eyes it sums up British style.

Who is your favourite British shoe designer?
It’s got to be Charlotte Olympia – designed by London ‘it girl’ Charlotte Dellal. Her shoes are fun and quirky with a retro feel and her cobweb branded packaging and logo is just too cool.

Tell us about your Debenhams range? Do you have a favourite piece?
My Debenhams’s collection is made up of my favourite pieces from all the Debenhams collections, including the Designers at Debenhams and Red Herring. It’s their strongest items highlighted to the shoppers – making it that bit easier for them. Their Limited Edition dresses are my absolute faves– I adore them all!
