A life long passion for vintage has led me to a career as a sustainable fashion stylist with a mission to get everyone to add a touch of vintage to their wardrobe, forget fast fashion and shop more sustainably. I have created a range of services to help you shop more sustainably and find your unique style.

Radio and TV
Experience in both radio and TV presentation I have participated in talk shows, make-overs on various subjects including vintage swimwear, how to wear vintage and getting vintage style working with Anglia TV, Radio Norfolk Mustard TV and have recently worked on a pilot for a vintage make-over programme. With sustainability being a buzz subject I have been shopping this way before it became a fashion trend so am available for comment and discussions on sustainable fashion.

From sourcing period costume for TV or film productions to working on set to style and dress the cast or just simply advise on the correct dress for the era you are working with.  Recent work includes sourcing and styling for Magpie – a film based in Suffolk set during WW2.
