Alexandra Shulman In Conversation with Natasha Kaplinsky-image

What do the clothes in our wardrobe say about us? Some will have special significance and others less so but what are the stories behind each piece?

From the bra to the bikini, the trench coat to trainers, the slip dress to the suit, clothes are rarely just clothes. Ex-British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman explores their meaning in our lives and in her own – considering how our wardrobes intersect with the career ladder, motherhood, romance, sexual identity, failure, body image and celebrity.

Alexandra Shulman is a journalist, consultant and commentator. She was Editor-in-Chief of British Vogue from 1992–2017, the magazine’s longest serving editor. She won 2017 Periodical Publisher’s Association Editor’s Editor Award and The Drapers Award 2017 for Outstanding Contribution to Fashion. She is Vice President of The London Library and was awarded the CBE in the 2017 New Year’s Honours List. She has a weekly column in the Mail on Sunday, is a contributor to other national newspapers and has written two novels: Can We Still Be Friends? and The Parrots and the book, Inside Vogue: The Diary of My 100th Year.
