Jenny Agutter: A Wimple Gives You Cheekbones, A LBD is Forever

Jenny Agutter, Star of Call the Midwife with Creative Director, Lucy Tammam and Journalist Alison Jane Reid at London Fashion Week

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.”

Audrey Hepburn

The Perfect LBD for Hopping on The Routemaster to the Ballet at Covent Garden

We say it is the perfect dress for the modern girl about town. Jenny declares, “It’s marvellous! I love dressing up, but I don’t want to look as if I have tried too hard. I like to hop on the bus to Covent Garden and go and watch the ballet at The Royal Opera House.”

Lucy Tammam is the British fashion designer to watch. Lucy studied fashion at St Martin’s, where she was one of the first designers to embrace the idea of sustainable, slow luxury fashion. Now her Flight of Fantasy, form fitting lace gowns and ravishing, Mad Men, New Look, peace silk couture coats are admired as wonderful examples of couture tailoring by leading ladies such as Eleanor Tomlinson and Olivia Williams.
