 * According to The Times she was the second not the first, so Alt1 "... that Janey Ironside was a "style icon" who taught fashion to Antony Price, Ossie Clark and Zandra Rhodes?" Philafrenzy (talk) 11:44, 23 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Symbol question.svg articles meets the length and age requirements. No close paraphrasing or plagiarism detected. Neutral tone used. The hook fact checks out with the 2nd ref but isn't present in the article. If she replaced someone in the post how can she be the first to hold the post? I think we can add that she died because of medical complications caused by alcoholism to the hook. Skr15081997 (talk) 12:09, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg with ALT1: Continuing initial review; Hook fact checks out with the 2nd ref. QPQ done. Good to go.--Skr15081997 (talk) 12:14, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
