Yahoo covers fashion week with ELLE

Yahoo covers fashion week with ELLEYahoo has teamed up with fashion giant ELLE to bring mobile coverage of fashion weeks in New York, Milan and Paris.

The special fashion coverage runs through Yahoo! oneSearch on mobile devices, which we have covered in the past, providing up to the minute fashion news, trend reports, behind the scenes blogs, and city guides. But perhaps the best must have feature for fashion lovers is the photo coverage.

ELLE will be running exclusive runway reports starting today. The reports will feature editors reviews of the top designers, models and trends of the day, fashion blogs will be profiled and share their insight, with photo diaries documenting the whole event available to view. And of course, no fashion show is complete without special events, Yahoo! oneSearch users will have access to complete coverage of the must attend parties of fashion week.

To get started, visit http://m.yahoo.com in your mobile browser and simply search for fashion. Or alternatively, visit http://fw.elle.com, or text "fashion" to 92466 (YAHOO).

It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.
