Lily Allen has been forced to close her vintage clothing shop Lucy In Disguise just ten months after its star-studded opening.
Lily, 26, and her half-sister Sarah Owen, 31, had their foray into retail documented in Channel 4’s From Riches To Rags.
In the programme, TV fashion guru Mary Portas voiced her fears that the pair’s concept of renting out designer vintage clothing was flawed.

Following the closure of the store in London’s Covent Garden, the duo have taken up residence in a temporary ‘pop-up shop’ near Carnaby Street.
They have also signed a lease for another permanent store, although no date has been set for its opening.
‘Everything is chaotic with Lucy In Disguise,’ a source says. ‘Having a pop-up shop is a last-ditch attempt to save things.’
A Lucy In Disguise spokesman said: ‘We cannot comment until the new store is open.’

Bride Petra Nemcova will be wedded to Nature
Czech-born supermodel Petra Nemcova has chosen to have a simple countryside wedding to Emmerdale actor Jamie Belman.
The ceremony next June will have a natural theme after Petra, pictured right with her fiance, declared to pals: ‘Nature is my religion.’
The ex-girlfriend of James Blunt, who survived the 2004 tsunami in Thailand by clinging to a palm tree for eight hours with a broken hip, will have her dress designed by Georgina Chapman.

‘I’m going to wear Marchesa as I’ve known Georgina since she started the label. When she offered to make my dress, I was over the moon,’ Petra, 32, said.
‘We pushed the wedding back as I’m organising my Happy Hearts Foundation charity’s annual ball in November to give thousands of displaced children access to education – it’s a busy time.’

Denise, 37, whose new ITV show Born To Shine premieres tonight, is planning a fitness regime at her North London home to help shift weight she gained while pregnant.

‘I used to get up and run on Hampstead Heath, but now I can’t just leave Betsy so I’ve bought a treadmill,’ Denise told me at Melissa Odabash’s swimwear boutique in Chelsea.
‘I’m getting back into shape, but I’m nowhere near as fit as I was.’
