Having been asked to bring along a piece of clothing that holds a special importance to me, I chose a t-shirt that I designed in late Autumn of last year. I was invited to produce this tee design as part of the Everpress Holiday Collection....
I choose a t-shirt with a mascot printed on Hogarth, the skeleton below. My grandfather had a novelty type of table at the side of his chair, which was a skeleton, Butler. When he died, it was delegated to the porch and when my Nan...
I bought this dress for £10 from a vintage shop in London to wear for my graduation ceremony. I've since wore it on other special occasions, and now I associate it with lovely memories and milestone moments in my life. By Amy Flynn AMY'S INTERVIEW...
I chose my clerical shirt because it is the shirt I wear most when I’m trying my best to serve people in my neighbourhood. Whenever I put it on, not only does it let others know that I am a minister, it also helps reminds...
I am Richard Free, I am 60 years old and for the last 37 years I have worked with vintage clothing. The piece of vintage clothing I chose was a Cowichan sweater (more of a cardigan really). I first owned a similar sweater in the 70’s...
I have a connection to my cadet uniform because growing up and being the small, weird kid, I was always singled out and never really fit in anywhere and I know it sounds cringe and like a cliché but when I started cadets, I felt...
I chose this apron I sewed specifically for gardening on my friend’s allotment in Sefton Park, as it was the first new item I’d made for a few years and has become a staple of my lockdown fashions both on and off the soil. I...
Of all the things which we bought for our babies, this sling is probably the one that means the most to me. I used it with our eldest, and we used it every day, so I got used to having a little companion chatting in...
I chose this T-shirt because it was the uniform for my first job in the U.K after arriving in Liverpool as a refugee. I loved working at the Everyman because it was really like a big family and I also enjoyed watching all the shows. I...
I chose my blue boca juniors shirt because it was the shirt I wore to the first ever aggregate session, so always reminds me of that time! Carolynn chose a United shirt because we are both massive fans! We have created a women’s football collective playing small...
My denim jacket has been a staple in my wardrobe, although my style has changed over the years, it'll stay with me because of the memories attached to it. Over the 8 years of owning it, it has been patched up and embroidered to repair...
The WCR jersey is my memento for not only my first organised running event, but stands for something bigger like being part of a boss group of runners all giving it beans on the day. It represents a slim portion of 2020 in which we...
We’re Khushi and Noor and we volunteer at Asylum Link Merseyside, a charity that helps forced migrants to access their rights to refuge and to support their wellbeing during the process. We work in the clothes store sorting and presenting donated used clothing for the service...
I'm Claire, my relationship with clothes started when I was a toddler with a keen eye for colour! For me clothes are an external sharing of how I feel; confident, happy, sad or sexy. The dress I chose is my favourite, the shape, texture, feel...
I chose the Dashiki t-shirt/tunic to acknowledge the fact that I am a product of the African diaspora here in Liverpool the oldest and continuous Black community in Europe. When I wear it,it is a declaration of pride in my West African heritage and it makes...
For this project I have chosen the bra but in truth I could have spoken about any garment as I have spent over 40 years in Fashion Merchandising and have worked with all garments over that time but the bra has a fun story and...
For this project, I've brought my daughter's Dalmatian babygrow. I got this in three sizes because I really liked the print — I like that this is something I'd wear if it came in adult size! I became a mother for the first time in...
I love high end fashion with a twist, mainly street fashion! The two tops I chose are for different reasons but they intertwine along the way. One of my favourite clothing brands has always been Stone Island, I like how simple and effective some of...
