0:00:00 > 0:00:05- This week, we delve into the daring, - fascinating wardrobe of Glyn Lewis.
0:00:07 > 0:00:11- Then, we'll see a Romany influence - on the clothes of Teleri Gray.
0:00:14 > 0:00:18- Finally, the sunny wardrobe - of the legendary Jenny Ogwen.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20- Welcome to Cwpwrdd Dillad.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26- 888
0:00:30 > 0:00:32- 888
0:00:37 > 0:00:39- 888
0:00:48 > 0:00:52- My mother taught me to wear new - clothes as soon as we left the shop.
0:00:53 > 0:00:54- I still do it.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- I get excited - about having something new.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59- I wear it straightaway.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09- There are lots of mirrors here - but I rarely look in them.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14- I check myself in the mirror - more often when I'm out.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18- I look in the mirror - and reassure myself it's still me.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- It gives me - a boost of self-confidence.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25- Everything's fine, - once I've looked in the mirror.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35- Glyn, you've got colourful, bright, - slightly zany shirts!
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- How do you go about - choosing a shirt?
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- It's all pretty random, - as you can tell!
0:01:43 > 0:01:48- Apart from the suit I'm wearing now, - most of my suits are dark.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52- You can wear any colour shirt - with a dark suit.
0:01:52 > 0:01:59- The more striking the colour or the - material of the shirt, the better.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09- Your hats are all the same style.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Yes, that's true.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- Once you find a hat - which suits you...
0:02:14 > 0:02:19- ..it's easy to stick to that style - and buy it in different colours.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- I know this shape suits me.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- I think it will suit you, too.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27- Trust me to choose a naughty one!
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- What sort of reaction do you get - when you wear this hat?
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- People usually stand like this - and read the words.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41- Once they've done that, - they take a step back.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59- When you see someone - wearing a rock band's T-shirt...
0:02:59 > 0:03:04- ..you instantly know - what sort of music they're into.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06- You also know their age group.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12- It's a short cut to finding out - if you'll enjoy someone's company.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16- Clothes advertise your character.
0:03:16 > 0:03:21- It's true for everyone, - whether or not you're aware of it.
0:03:21 > 0:03:26- People wear understated clothes and - hope to melt into the background...
0:03:26 > 0:03:31- ..but people's clothes - speak volumes about their character.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39- Did you experiment with styles, - during your teenage years?
0:03:40 > 0:03:41- Yes.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- I experimented with umpteen styles.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- I had a phase - where I wanted to be a hippy.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51- I wore harem pants - and waistcoats covered in mirrors!
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- There was a time when I dressed - like an extra from a silent film.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59- I wore pinstriped suits and spats.
0:04:01 > 0:04:07- When everyone went out to celebrate - their 18th birthdays in clubs...
0:04:07 > 0:04:11- ..I'd turn up in a top hat - and tails, with a white bow tie.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16- You can't wear a black bow tie in - mixed company - it's for men only.
0:04:16 > 0:04:21- You must wear a white bow tie, - if you're in the company of ladies.
0:04:21 > 0:04:26- You're the first man I've met - who's been a bridesmaid!
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- I've been a bridesmaid twice.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- I don't think your cat likes me!
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- I'm the centre of attention - and she doesn't like it.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39- She wants some attention, too!
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- I wore a suit which matched the men, - the first time.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- I wore a white dinner jacket - the second time.
0:04:47 > 0:04:52- I switched the colours - the shirt - was black and the jacket was white.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57- There were conventionally-dressed - bridesmaids there, too...
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- ..but I was the chief bridesmaid!
0:05:15 > 0:05:20- You received a suit as your - 18th birthday present, didn't you?
0:05:21 > 0:05:22- Yes - the Charleston.
0:05:22 > 0:05:28- I received the full set - - shirt, tie, spats and cufflinks.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32- They were old-fashioned, - collarless shirts.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- I had to add the collars.
0:05:37 > 0:05:42- I also received a heavy overcoat - and a matching scarf.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- It was a complete outfit.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47- It's a 1920s suit?
0:05:48 > 0:05:50- Yes, it was made in 1929.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- It was tailor-made for someone - but not for me!
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- Look at that stitching.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- It's really well made.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- It's like wearing a suit of armour.
0:06:03 > 0:06:08- It's heavy and it keeps everything - exactly where it should be!
0:06:08 > 0:06:12- I'm two inches taller - when I wear it. I'm like this!
0:06:16 > 0:06:20- Do you adhere to any philosophy - when you choose clothes?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Do you stick to one particular rule?
0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Yes.
0:06:27 > 0:06:32- It bugs me when people wear clothes - just because they're trendy...
0:06:32 > 0:06:35- ..even if they don't suit them.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- It's far better - to know what suits you.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43- You must be ruthless.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47- It's important to look at yourself - and think...
0:06:47 > 0:06:49- .."This may be trendy - but not on me!"
0:06:50 > 0:06:54- I see so many people wearing things - I want to yank off them and say...
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- .."No! You can't wear that! - You look awful!"
0:07:10 > 0:07:15- You really think you're Superman, - or a comic book hero in those!
0:07:15 > 0:07:20- The difference between me and - Superman is you know he wears pants!
0:07:21 > 0:07:24- Can I take a peek, - or is it wise not to do that?
0:07:24 > 0:07:28- If this wind keeps up, - all will be revealed soon enough!
0:07:32 > 0:07:37- I became sick and tired of wearing - trousers and jeans every day.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41- Jeans are just trousers, - made of denim, after all.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45- I was sick and tired of trousers - so I decided to buy a kilt.
0:07:46 > 0:07:51- I thought, "They're available - and they're not terribly unusual."
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- They're more unusual - than I thought!
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- But it's a leather kilt!
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- Yes, leather kilts - are a bit unusual, I admit.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- I bought one kilt, - just to test the waters.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- I wouldn't have lost much - if I hadn't taken to it.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14- I found them really comfortable, - from day one.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- I now wear a kilt most of the time.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23- How do you decide - what shoes to wear with your kilt?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25- It can be a tricky decision.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- You can't wear trainers with a kilt.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31- You need - something chunkier than that.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- These are quite hefty boots.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35- They're heavy and clumpy.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- The socks are thick, so you can't - wear something smaller than this.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52- I know myself well - and that's the important thing.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57- Self-confidence is the most - important commodity for everyone.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00- I'm not lacking in self-confidence.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06- I believe individual style - is more important than fashion.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14- I'm more consistent than fashion.
0:09:21 > 0:09:21- 888
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- 888- - 888
0:09:34 > 0:09:39- I'm fond of bright colours - - purple, dark pink, black and white.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43- I like any colour, - as long as it isn't boring.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53- Can you describe the sort of clothes - you keep in your wardrobe?
0:09:54 > 0:09:58- I have some ordinary, - everyday clothes in there.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04- I also have a few items which - people tell me are over-the-top.
0:10:05 > 0:10:10- I enjoy wearing them and I - don't care what other people think.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- I don't want to be - like everyone else.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- There's a hint of purple - in your hair!
0:10:17 > 0:10:19- Yes, that's true.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24- Old ladies used to have a blue rinse - in their hair when I was a child.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- The blue rinse brigade.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30- I don't want to be grey - and my hair used to be black.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35- I thought I'd look like a witch, - if I dyed my hair black!
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- That's why - I chose this shade of purple.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- It matches my clothes, too!
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- Years ago, following an illness...
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- ..Teleri went through - a dark period of depression.
0:10:49 > 0:10:54- She is aware that her clothes - reflect her state of mind.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58- I wore the sort of clothes - I now wear before I was ill.
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- I had no interest in clothes, - when I was depressed.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- I have now - embarked on a new journey.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- The way I dress helps me progress..
0:11:14 > 0:11:18- ..taking me further on my way - than ever before.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26- Teleri's family - is of Romany descent.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- Gypsies in Wales - wore traditional Welsh clothes...
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- ..rather than a stereotypical - Romany Gypsy.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38- I'd say this lady was well off, - judging by her clothes.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40- Her mother ran a market stall.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48- She was a seamstress, so she - may have made the dress herself.
0:11:50 > 0:11:51- Who's this dashing man?
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- Who's this dashing man?- - That's my grandfather.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58- He was in the Welsh Fusiliers - where he played the harp.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- He didn't see any action - - he was a harpist.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- He's wearing army boots - and an army uniform, as you can see.
0:12:07 > 0:12:08- Can you play the harp?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- Can you play the harp?- - No. I'm a rebel!
0:12:10 > 0:12:14- I'm the only family member - who can't play the harp.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17- This is another photo of them - playing in a mansion.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- They played for Queen Victoria - at Pale Hall.
0:12:22 > 0:12:27- Buckingham Palace paid for the suits - they wore when they played for her.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30- It was all very well organised.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34- They sent a train to pick them up - from Llangollen.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- The harps were transported - by a horse and carriage.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- They hoped and prayed - it wouldn't rain...
0:12:42 > 0:12:46- ..because they wanted to look - their best for Queen Victoria.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- Suits paid for by the Queen! - How lovely.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- There's a lot of purple here.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10- Here, there and in the clothes - you're wearing today.
0:13:11 > 0:13:17- I wear this when I tell stories - about the Gypsies.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20- It's purple and the skirt is long.
0:13:20 > 0:13:25- When I walk around as I talk, - the whole outfit moves with me.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29- It creates - the impression of movement.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31- D'you relate stories about Gypsies?
0:13:31 > 0:13:33- D'you relate stories about Gypsies?- - Yes, that's right.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37- What about - this magnificent creation?
0:13:37 > 0:13:40- You'd hardly fade - into the background, wearing this!
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- This is a lace dress.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48- You wear a jacket over the dress?
0:13:48 > 0:13:49- You wear a jacket over the dress?- - Yes, that's right.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- This top goes over it, like so.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54- You wear the jacket, on top.
0:13:55 > 0:13:56- This bag is lovely, too.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- What can you tell me - about this green dress?
0:14:12 > 0:14:13- It's lovely and light.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16- Yes. This is my fairy dress.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18- I believe in fairies, by the way.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20- I believe in fairies, by the way.- - I had a feeling you might.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- Do they live - at the bottom of the garden?
0:14:24 > 0:14:29- I haven't seen one but - that doesn't mean they're not there.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- I bought this - to wear to my birthday party.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- My Bus Pass birthday party!
0:14:36 > 0:14:38- Yes - my 60th birthday party.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- It's a really lovely dress.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44- Did you have a good party?
0:14:44 > 0:14:48- Yes. I floated around - and had a great time.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- A glass of wine in your hand.
0:14:50 > 0:14:51- A glass of wine in your hand.- - Yes.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- You can spot me, - walking down the street.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01- I don't do it to attract attention.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05- I do it because wearing the clothes - I love makes me happy.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21- # Well, she always knows her place. - She's got style, she's got grace
0:15:21 > 0:15:23- # She's a winner
0:15:24 > 0:15:29- # She's a lady. - Whoa, whoa, whoa she's a lady.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33- # Talking about - that little lady... #
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- Jenny, this bag is fantastic!
0:15:37 > 0:15:39- Do you like it? Tom's peg bag!
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- Come here - to see the original photograph.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- Good old Tom!
0:15:45 > 0:15:46- He seems to enjoy that kiss.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48- He seems to enjoy that kiss.- - He'd just had his nose done.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52- It was a Christmas present - from Rhodri and Sara.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54- A shop in London makes these bags.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00- Rod said it was the only size they - could afford - they're expensive.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- Come and see the mess, Nia!
0:16:27 > 0:16:30- There's a pile of stuff on the bed.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Out of the wardrobe - and onto the bed.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36- Where would you like to start?
0:16:37 > 0:16:41- I think we should start with - the glad rags you're wearing now.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- That isn't really daywear.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- I wake up every morning, - looking like this!
0:16:47 > 0:16:49- This is fantastic.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51- This is fantastic.- - It hides a multitude of sins!
0:16:51 > 0:16:53- It makes me feel floaty.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59- This is my corset.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04- I hope - the nation is ready for this, Jenny!
0:17:04 > 0:17:06- I'm sure most women own a corset.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- I bought this - to wear under this dress.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12- Look, Nia - it's ridiculous.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- You have to do up the hooks - at the back.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20- I asked my husband to help me but - he couldn't see what he was doing.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- There was one hook over here - and one over there.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27- I took it off and wore the dress - without a corset.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39- The Betty Jackson suit - has caught my eye.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42- This is an expensive suit.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- This is an expensive suit.- - Yes. It's around 15 years old.
0:17:44 > 0:17:46- It's raw silk.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47- I rarely wear this.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49- I'll keep it.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52- It's a pair of culottes, you see?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55- I washed it and it shrunk.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59- It's OK because I've lost weight, - so it still fits me.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01- Sara has borrowed this.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- It's been in New York - and in all sorts of places.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09- If I keep it long enough, - it should come back into fashion.
0:18:09 > 0:18:14- I'm quite wide up here, - I shouldn't wear horizontal stripes.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16- I don't care!
0:18:21 > 0:18:23- From Betty Jackson to Peacocks!
0:18:23 > 0:18:26- From Betty Jackson to Peacocks!- - You bought this suit in Peacocks?!
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- Yes. Someone thought - it was a Ralph Lauren suit!
0:18:29 > 0:18:32- Did you let them keep thinking that?
0:18:32 > 0:18:33- Did you let them keep thinking that?- - No, I told the truth.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35- It's excellent!
0:18:35 > 0:18:38- It's perfect - as fashion keeps changing.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40- How much did you pay for it?
0:18:41 > 0:18:45- The trousers were 11 - and the jacket was 15.
0:18:46 > 0:18:47- There you go - a 26 suit!
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- If you spill red wine on it, - you can buy another one.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- I know you're fond of pink.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- You're also fond of hats, - judging by your large collection.
0:19:09 > 0:19:10- Yes, I love hats.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- I wore this hat at Ascot.
