Fashion maven Adele bids store a fond farewell

When Adele Liebovitz walks away from her famous store at 283 Main St. W. at the end of this month, it will be as though theres an invisible cape of a thousand voices pouring out the door behind her. They would be the echoes of all the conversations that have vibrated in that space and two previous others (Hess Street and Jackson Square) over the past 35-plus years. It would be a very stylish, smart, colourful cape, full of quirky folds and unique personality. Im really not into the R (retirement) word, Adele tells me. Im leaving my options open, for sure. Adele has never done anything the conventional way and shes not about to start now as she steps up to the threshold of no, not retirement but the next, whatever that might be. When Adele began her fashion business in the late 70s, she had little idea where it would take her or how long it would last but she grasped one thing instinctively: Clothing reveals character. Fashion should express our individuality, but in a way that make...

Radio, On Its Own, Mines Adele's '21' for More Hits

As sales for Adele 's "21" continue at extraordinarily lofty levels, radio is digging into the album to find more hits, even though Columbia Records is not officially promoting any further radio singles from the set. The album's "I'll Be Waiting" rises 30-29 in its second week on Billboard's adult alternative Triple A radio airplay chart. "Turning Tables," meanwhile, ranked as the No. 18 song on Cox-owned mainstream top 40 WBLI Nassau, N.Y., in the July 23-29 tracking week, according to Nielsen BDS. ( *Language in video above may not be appropriate for all audiences. ) That stations are playing songs not being promoted by a record label not only harkens back to a time when programmers, in an era before multi-tasking and oversight of multiple stations, had more time to spend on searching for potential hits, but it also reinforces the uncommon staying power of Adele and "21." The set ranked as the top-selling album of 2011 and rema...
