Google is set to launch tomorrow its first significant venture in to fashion retail.
"The site, which will work in a similar way to Google's ubiquitous search engine, will allow users to save items, brands and looks they love in their own personalised shop."

Google has asked designers and celebrities alike to put together shops for the opening of the site tomorrow. All of the rumours circulation are about America figure heads, in particular the likes of Katie Holmes, Sarah Jessica Parker and designers such as Oscar De La Renta and Tory Burch are said to be hosting their own boutiques.
This announcement came alongside the ASOS Market place which was revealed last week. The site which is featuring at present the vetted designers that the 'Marketplace' will host, aims to allow designers, vintage collectors and people like you to sell and buy clothes in virtual shops.

Could this be the beginning of shopping in the 21st century?
