Rumour has it she's going under the knife and yes they are true. Portmans is going to have a major makeover with a world class team architects, designers and creative directors on board. And everyone is excited to see how she will emerge!

Until she arrives with her bright new look why not tease yourself with the new season Portmans is about to drop - their brand new Utility and Safari lines.

Safari, which hits first in July, is a range of animal-print skirts, blouses and dresses. And there are safari-style frocks, trenches, shirts and vests in camel with interesting and bold splashes of red. Although not usually considered a safari colour it compliments the range perfectly and gives it a modern edge. It looks like Portmans have reinvented the safari suit giving it a definite place in the urban jungle of 2010.

In August comes the Utility range. It uses a palate of nude, black, blue, khaki and purple to showcase necessities as well as a few standout pieces. The watercolour inspired blouses are fashion forward and a highlight.

With their interchangeable versatility these ranges maintain what we loved about Portmans in the first place and put this best fashion foot forward with an uber-fashionable flavour

Lets face it shoppers Portmans is all grown up and is the newest addition to the must go fashion pitstop's of Westfield.
