Shirley Bassey to model M&S
For all you big spenders out there, Dame Shirley Bassey is joining the list of celebrities modelling for Marks & Spencer and is set to star in its Christmas ads. The choice of Bassey, a British icon, will hopefully help the group to maintain its healthy sales figures, which have been rising healthily with the likes of Twiggy, Lizzie Jagger and Erin O'Connor appearing in M&S ads.
The television ads, which are set to debut on Wednesday, is set to Pink's soundtrack of �Get The Party Started', showing Dame Shirley singing at an exclusive and glamorous M&S Christmas extravaganza. As FashionUnited recently reported, Marks and Spencer is set to expand with new stores in out of town locations, and the group is aiming to achieve annual profit of �1billion, after pre-tax profits reached �405.1million in this first hall of this year.
