In lockdown, I started making historical costumes.
00:04
My first costume was a Tudor gown.
00:07
It was made out of my parents' curtains that they were throwing away,
00:11
and I just haven't stopped since then.
00:13
I've made 300 costumes now.
00:16
I'd say in my current collection that I've got in my house, I've got about 150,
00:21
because I tend-- I've sold a few, and I've dismantled quite a number of them
00:25
that I know I'm not going to wear.
00:27
Most of them are kept in my sewing room.
00:30
I probably would say there's about 60 of them that I wear reasonably regularly
00:36
and that I'm quite proud of,
00:38
and they're sort of the most recent costumes I made in the last year or two.
