All she wants for Christmas is a well-fitting vintage dress
. Charlotte says: “We clicked straight away and she invited me to her studio. I’m like a kid in a candy store in there and can get lost for hours. I also appreciate the way Trudy offers useful styling tips that modernise a vintage look. She puts items together that I might not have thought of and has a great eye for what suits people.
“I’ve always had my own, shall we say, unique style,” she says. “For me, fashion has always been a way of expressing myself.”Curating her collections means shopping, and she loves seeking out vintage pieces for personal clients, as well as for photoshoots, advertising campaigns, or for TV, film and theatre costume designers.
“There will be ten of us in total so I won’t be sitting down much. As I’ll be on the go, I’ve already picked out a pre-loved red and cream floral midi-dress. It won’t crease and isn’t too tight on the waist. A good friend recently gave it to me. We’ve started sharing clothes, passing on things we’re not wearing much - not new, but new to us. It means we get that joyful buzz of a new outfit, but we are not spending money or having as much of a negative impact on the environment.
