STEWART SLIMS INSIDE

Incarcerated lifestyle guru MARTHA STEWART has recruited her daughter to buy her an entire new wardrobe ahead of her release from prison this weekend (5/6MAR05) - because she's lost so much weight in jail, none of her clothes fit.

Stewart has shed nine kilograms (20 pounds) while serving the custodial stint of her sentence for lying to investigators about a suspicious stock sale, though workouts, yoga and her distaste for prison food.

So daughter ALEXIS has been busy collecting new outfits for the 63-year-old.

She was spotted with a personal shopper at New York store Bergdorf Goodman by a source who tells website PAGESIX.COM, "They decided on a $3,980 suede jacket for Martha. Among other things. I guess it will be Martha's 'coming out' look."
