In Clothes & Other Things That Matter, ex-editor in chief of British Vogue, Alexandra Shulman CBE explores the meaning of clothes and how we wear them; ranging from the little black dress to the white shirt, red shoes to the bikini. Examining their role in her own and women’s lives in general, she will explore issues such as climbing the career ladder, motherhood, romance, fame, celebrity, nostalgia, sexual identity, power and body image. Funny, opinionated and moving, Alexandra will encourage us to consider how we wear our own clothes - the life we live in them and the stories they tell.
