nothing precise: the dates above are from guidelines from a MAC press release. they're usually a latest by date though.

the pret-a porter brush set looks lovely but Harrods is a bit far away, do you think they will have it online, or can you buy from Harrods online? if not i guess i will have to manage with the brush sets and get the full size ones over time

you can definitely do a phone order from Harrods, but better ask what the postage costs are: i imagine it's not cheap with them.
i think it's cheaper to get the brushes in the set rather than individually, but it's a lot of cash to part with at once especially if you don't need all of them! they're all permanent brushes so no particular hurry, unless you're desperate for the brush roll.

I didn't get a date as yet. Are the dress sets the ones in similar packaging to formal black? They probably come out with formal black for a guess!!!

I thought the dress sets were HOF exclusives? In which case the SA amy_forster spoke too probably won't have a release date for them, unless shes at a HOF counter.
I'm pretty annoyed, we've got one MAC counter in my city, and it's not in our HOF store. I was looking forward to the dress sets too. Bah.

I got my mailing booklet thingy through on Friday... it was a nice surprise when i walked through the door!!
The prices aren't too bad either... I have also decided not to get the Intense eyes, more likely to just get the smoked eyes one.
Definitely getting the face brush set though.

Have no idea MadKitty!!
I am registered at 3 different stores, no make that 4 I think:
HoF Bath and Plymouth, Debs Bristol and the Pro Store. Its only really since they registered me at the pro store in September that I started getting mailings, my best mate doesn't get them I don't think and she is registered at the Plymouth one and the pro store (although I haven't spoken to her to ask whether she got the mailing).
I'm also registered on the website... really don't know which one made them send me stuff!! Its most odd because before I got the Untamed/Rockocco postcards in September I had only had the ones for Studio Fix Fluid last autumn.
