A couple of recent links concerning that unlikely combination: the Brontës and fashion. The designer Alan Hannah has pictures of 'real brides' wearing his bridal dresses and one of them is Chloe Ridsdale:
"I got married in 2008 in St Paul's Cathedral, London wearing my dream dress 'Bronte'. The first bridal shop I visited was Miss Bush in Ripley and the staff had just received a new Alan Hannah dress as I arrived. The lady in the shop asked me to try the new 'Bronte' dress on so they could see what it looked like. I knew the moment I tried it on that it was the dress for me. It was everything I had imagined and hoped my wedding dress to be!"
What we don't really know if the 'Bronte' name is really anything to do with the Brontë sisters.

Wuthering Heights, though, having been sort of coined by Emily Brontë is easy to connect, though sometimes the relation is quite intriguing all the same. Wear Palettes in its Street Color section names calls this combination of colours (blue, brown, grey, red) Wuthering Heights.
