-in order and neatness...

0:00:070:00:10

-..from former headmaster,

-Islwyn Parry.

-Jen lectures in Fashion and Textiles

-at Glamorgan Art Centre, Pontypridd.

0:00:450:00:50

-She studied in London

-during the 1960s...

0:00:500:00:53

-..and she owned a wool shop

-in Cardiff during the 1980s.

0:00:540:00:58

-That influence is visible in her

-private collection of clothes.

0:00:580:01:03

-I was interested in clothes

-when I was child.

0:01:030:01:07

-I'm not sure where it stemmed from.

0:01:080:01:10

-I have two older sisters...

0:01:110:01:13

-..and I enjoyed seeing them

-dressed up to go out.

0:01:130:01:16

-When we went out to Llandeilo

-or somewhere like that...

0:01:170:01:21

-..Mam told us

-to spruce ourselves up.

0:01:210:01:24

-Yes, we had to spruce ourselves up.

0:01:270:01:30

-Were you always

-interested in designing clothes?

0:01:310:01:34

-Yes, I was always interested.

0:01:360:01:38

-Growing up in a rural area

-during the 1950s...

0:01:400:01:44

-..was completely different

-from today.

0:01:440:01:47

-There was very little television

-and we had very few magazines.

0:01:470:01:52

-There was also a paper shortage.

0:01:530:01:56

-We had a few books in the house

-and I'd take them and draw on them.

0:01:570:02:01

-I'd draw dresses and so on

-then I'd put them back on the shelf.

0:02:030:02:07

-Did you?

0:02:080:02:09

-What about your wardrobe today?

0:02:110:02:13

-If I open the doors,

-what will I see?

0:02:130:02:16

-A real variety.

0:02:160:02:17

-Yes, you'll see

-a few vintage garments...

0:02:190:02:22

-..and you'll see

-some strong colours.

0:02:220:02:25

-All sorts.

0:02:250:02:27

-Where do we start?

0:02:290:02:30

-I can see lots of pinks and reds.

0:02:310:02:33

-Yes. Let me show you this one.

0:02:340:02:37

-It's the oldest dress I own.

0:02:370:02:43

-I bought it when I was a student.

0:02:430:02:46

-It's a 1940s dress.

0:02:460:02:48

-The detail on this dress

-is wonderful.

0:02:500:02:53

-I used to wear this dress

-on Christmas Day.

0:02:530:02:56

-I'd come home from church

-and I'd get changed into this.

0:02:570:03:01

-I'd wear this dress all day long.

0:03:010:03:04

-It feels nice.

0:03:040:03:06

-Having strong ideas makes it hard

-for you to find just what you want.

0:03:170:03:23

-I find even now...

0:03:240:03:28

-..I occasionally go on a shopping

-spree and come home empty-handed.

0:03:280:03:34

-I struggle

-to find exactly what I want.

0:03:340:03:37

-As I get older,

-I tend to put colours together...

0:03:370:03:41

-..because I have trouble

-finding things I like.

0:03:420:03:45

-What sort of colours do you like

-and which ones do you put together?

0:03:450:03:50

-Let me put it this way -

-I'm not afraid of colour.

0:03:500:03:54

-I'll wear vivid colours.

0:03:550:03:57

-I'll wear red and purple together

-or pink an purple. I don't care!

0:03:570:04:02

-It all depends on my mood.

0:04:020:04:04

-Sometimes I wear

-a calming shade of blue.

0:04:040:04:07

-It depends how much energy I have

-in the morning!

0:04:080:04:11

-Do you avoid wearing any colours?

0:04:110:04:14

-I never wear beige!

0:04:140:04:16

-Beige simply isn't me!

0:04:180:04:20

-Take a look at this.

0:04:220:04:25

-This is completely different.

0:04:250:04:27

-It's a 1970s kaftan.

0:04:270:04:29

-I like the colour

-and that's why I chose this one.

0:04:290:04:33

-These colours almost clash.

0:04:340:04:35

-These colours almost clash.

-

-Yes - pink and red.

0:04:350:04:37

-It says Harrods on the label.

0:04:370:04:38

-It says Harrods on the label.

-

-Yes.

0:04:380:04:39

-It's the one and only garment

-I've bought from Harrods!

0:04:390:04:42

-I don't make a habit of it.

0:04:430:04:45

-Do you remember the day

-you bought it?

0:04:450:04:48

-Yes, we had afternoon tea

-at the restaurant in Harrods.

0:04:480:04:54

-I find afternoon tea

-puts me in the mood to shop!

0:04:540:05:00

-It becomes a real occasion.

0:05:010:05:03

-It becomes a real occasion.

-

-Yes, that's right.

0:05:030:05:04

-It's a lovely idea.

0:05:040:05:06

-What do you make

-of high street shops?

0:05:210:05:24

-I struggle with some of them

-but I'm fond of others.

0:05:260:05:31

-I can hardly set foot

-in some high street shops.

0:05:320:05:35

-There's a huge shop in Cardiff

-and I walk in and think, "No!"

0:05:390:05:44

-I realize I can't face going in,

-so I turn around and leave.

0:05:450:05:49

-It's all too bland and I worry

-about how cheap the clothes are.

0:05:510:05:55

-Some of the high street shops

-are excellent.

0:05:550:05:58

-You can find some great clothes.

0:05:580:06:01

-I think you should give serious

-consideration before you buy.

0:06:010:06:07

-If I had to choose

-a favourite designer...

0:06:100:06:13

-..I'd go for Ossie Clark,

-a 1960s designer from London.

0:06:140:06:18

-He was married to Celia Birtwell

-and she did all the prints.

0:06:180:06:24

-She recently

-designed a collection for Topshop.

0:06:270:06:31

-I bought this shirt

-just before Christmas.

0:06:340:06:39

-Is it one blouse? It looks like two.

0:06:390:06:42

-Is it one blouse? It looks like two.

-

-Yes, one blouse but a clever design.

0:06:420:06:44

-Here is the sleeve

-then this covers it in a way.

0:06:440:06:50

-It's a combination of two prints.

0:06:510:06:55

-This is an old print of hers

-which she recreated for Topshop.

0:06:550:07:00

-They were very popular.

-They flew off the rails.

0:07:000:07:05

-This little cabinet

-must have belonged to a dentist.

0:07:210:07:25

-Jen doesn't keep teeth

-in this cabinet!

0:07:280:07:31

-She keeps all her necklaces,

-bracelets and earrings here.

0:07:310:07:36

-She has a vast collection

-of jewellery.

0:07:370:07:40

-I'm amazed at

-just how well organized this is.

0:07:410:07:44

-We can see that Jen treats

-her jewellery with great respect.

0:07:440:07:48

-She has several vintage items

-so she keeps reminders of the past.

0:07:490:07:56

-This theme

-is continued in her wardrobe.

0:07:560:08:01

-Feast your eyes on these bangles!

0:08:020:08:04

-Envy is a terrible thing!

0:08:050:08:07

-This old handbag

-is one of my favourite accessories.

0:08:090:08:12

-What I like most about it

-is the noise it makes.

0:08:120:08:15

-If you look inside, you'll see

-it came from Bond Street.

0:08:160:08:20

-Listen to this!

0:08:220:08:23

-What a lovely snapping sound.

0:08:240:08:27

-It reminds me

-of my grandmother's bag.

0:08:270:08:30

-It reminds me of old films.

0:08:300:08:32

-The lady applies some lipstick

-and she snaps her bag shut.

0:08:320:08:36

-Off she goes. Great!

0:08:370:08:38

-I look after my clothes...

0:08:450:08:48

-..and must admit that I get

-a little bit precious about them.

0:08:500:08:54

-If I've had them for years...

0:08:550:08:57

-..they feel like my children,

-as though I'd brought them up.

0:08:570:09:00

-I don't like to throw things away

-and that causes problems too.

0:09:010:09:04

-I really must have a clear-out soon!

0:09:050:09:07

-After I've gone.

0:09:080:09:09

-Yes, I'll have a clear-out

-after you've gone.

-Every time I'm waiting

-for my suitcase at an airport...

0:09:420:09:48

-..I think, "If my suitcase doesn't

-turn up, it's the end of the world!"

0:09:480:09:53

-You invest not only money

-but also time in your clothes.

0:09:540:09:58

-I'd be really sad. I wouldn't know

-what to do without them.

0:09:590:10:03

-Like all women, I love to shop.

0:10:150:10:18

-When I was a child, I dressed up

-in Mam's clothes and her high heels.

0:10:180:10:23

-Buying clothes reminds me of work

-these days, a little bit.

0:10:240:10:28

-D'you go shopping with a stylist?

0:10:280:10:29

-D'you go shopping with a stylist?

-

-Yes.

0:10:290:10:31

-Is it a pleasant experience?

0:10:310:10:32

-Is it a pleasant experience?

-

-It can be.

0:10:320:10:34

-I've been with several stylists

-and it's like having a friend.

0:10:340:10:39

-You're closer to some

-than to others.

0:10:390:10:42

-Some know you better...

0:10:430:10:45

-..and some can choose clothes

-which suit you better.

0:10:450:10:49

-There have been times when a stylist

-has asked me to wear something...

0:10:490:10:54

-..and I've thought, "Oh, no!"

0:10:540:10:56

-I've been close to tears

-in the dressing room.

0:10:570:11:01

-I stand there thinking,

-"I look awful!"

0:11:010:11:03

-We usually reach a compromise...

0:11:040:11:06

-..and the stylist and I

-have an understanding.

0:11:060:11:10

-I'm usually happy with the outcome.

0:11:100:11:12

-It makes you experiment with clothes

-you wouldn't normally wear.

0:11:140:11:18

-I'm not sure

-what my personal style is.

0:11:200:11:22

-I've always been

-a jeans and T-shirt girl.

0:11:230:11:26

-During the past ten years, since

-people have started to interfere...

0:11:270:11:32

-..I've experimented

-with smarter styles.

0:11:330:11:36

-I'm fond of vintage garments.

0:11:500:11:51

-A few of my favourite dresses

-are quite old.

0:11:520:11:56

-One of those dates back to 1940-ish.

0:11:560:12:00

-It's a pretty little dress.

0:12:010:12:03

-Vintage is a new phenomenon for me

-over the past two years.

0:12:040:12:08

-I can spend hours

-in markets and vintage shops.

0:12:090:12:12

-Here we are! This is my wardrobe.

0:12:190:12:22

-It's neat and tidy for once.

0:12:220:12:24

-I've been expecting you!

-It doesn't normally look like this.

0:12:240:12:28

-Wow! It's colourful and I can see

-all sorts of patterns.

0:12:290:12:33

-It's blinding, to be honest!

0:12:330:12:35

-Let's start

-with your favourite dress.

0:12:350:12:38

-This is my favourite dress.

0:12:400:12:42

-Oh, I love the colour.

0:12:440:12:46

-I like the colour

-because it's quite bright.

0:12:470:12:50

-This detail is nice, isn't it?

0:12:500:12:53

-You like a touch of sparkle!

0:12:540:12:56

-You like a touch of sparkle!

-

-Yes, I do.

0:12:560:12:57

-Have you worn it?

-The label's still on it.

0:12:580:13:01

-Yes, I have worn it.

0:13:010:13:02

-I have a habit of not removing tags

-in case I want to take them back.

0:13:030:13:08

-Didn't that huge tag irritate you?

0:13:080:13:09

-Didn't that huge tag irritate you?

-

-Yes.

0:13:090:13:11

-It was so expensive

-that I thought I might get away...

0:13:110:13:14

-..with wearing it then taking it

-back to the shop. Ssh!

0:13:150:13:18

-When did you wear it?

0:13:190:13:21

-When did you wear it?

-

-To the Joneses concert on S4C.

0:13:210:13:23

-At the after-show party...

0:13:230:13:25

-..Grace Jones asked me to take off

-the dress and let her try it.

0:13:260:13:30

-Have you seen her size?!

0:13:310:13:33

-She's tall and big. No way!

0:13:330:13:35

-What items don't you like but you

-still have them in your wardrobe?

0:13:540:13:59

-How many waistcoats

-with a reindeer print have you seen?

0:13:590:14:04

-It's quite cute for Christmas.

0:14:040:14:06

-It only cost 8

-from that really cheap shop in town.

0:14:070:14:11

-I bought it because you rarely see

-clothes with reindeer on them!

0:14:120:14:17

-I've worn it quite a few times

-even though the tag's still on it.

0:14:180:14:22

-I keep something

-that's truly horrible in here.

0:14:230:14:26

-This pair of extremely bright,

-yellow trousers.

0:14:270:14:30

-You need sunglasses, Nia!

0:14:310:14:33

-Do you like them?

0:14:330:14:34

-Do you like them?

-

-They're... bright!

0:14:340:14:36

-Be honest - they're disgusting!

0:14:360:14:38

-I bought these

-to wear on a children's programme.

0:14:390:14:43

-Bright colours work on kids' shows

-but these are a step too far!

0:14:430:14:48

-When I wore these, I'd applied

-a very dark, fake tan to my skin.

0:14:480:14:53

-All you could see were my teeth

-and the whites of my eyes!

0:14:540:14:58

-The overall effect

-was pretty dramatic...

0:15:000:15:03

-..for all the wrong reasons!

0:15:030:15:05

-Those trousers

-can go back on the rail.

0:15:060:15:09

-Here's something else I hate

-and I know you're going to laugh!

0:15:100:15:13

-# Duh, duh, duh! #

0:15:140:15:16

-A jumpsuit!

0:15:170:15:19

-THEY LAUGH

0:15:190:15:20

-Have you ever worn it?

0:15:210:15:22

-Have you ever worn it?

-

-No, of course not!

0:15:220:15:23

-A stylist bought this for me.

0:15:240:15:26

-It's horrible, Alex!

0:15:270:15:29

-You should have seen my face!

0:15:290:15:31

-I was like this.

0:15:310:15:33

-But you agreed to wear it!

0:15:330:15:34

-But you agreed to wear it!

-

-No, I didn't.

0:15:340:15:36

-This is the only thing

-I've ever refused to wear.

0:15:360:15:39

-I wouldn't leave my bedroom in this!

0:15:400:15:42

-No!

0:16:020:16:04

-They say for every item of clothing

-you buy, you should get rid of one.

0:16:060:16:11

-I don't do that.

0:16:110:16:13

-I let it build up, then I get rid

-of everything - two bags at a time.

0:16:130:16:18

-Are you sentimental

-about your clothes?

0:16:180:16:21

-Yes, about a few items.

0:16:210:16:23

-I'm sentimental

-about my beloved cowboy boots.

0:16:230:16:26

-I've had these boots

-for ten years...

0:16:260:16:29

-..and they've been

-to the cobbler's shop ten times!

0:16:290:16:33

-I wear them so much,

-the sole is worn and really thin.

0:16:330:16:37

-They're nice, they're brown,

-and they're comfortable.

0:16:380:16:42

-I can walk for miles in them.

0:16:420:16:45

-I'm not getting rid of them.

0:16:450:16:47

-The cobbler must fit

-yet another heel!

0:16:470:16:50

-Clothes are very important.

0:17:090:17:11

-I walk for miles to find them

-and I'd be lost without them.

0:17:120:17:16

-Co-ordinating my outfits

-is important to me.

0:17:450:17:48

-I'm not a follower in any sense.

0:17:490:17:53

-I always

-seek to plough my own furrow.

0:17:540:17:56

-I like to do something different...

0:17:570:17:59

-..not for the sake

-of being different but to be myself.

0:17:590:18:02

-The things I wear and colours I wear

-are an extension of my personality.

0:18:030:18:08

-I like matching outfits

-because I'm very organized.

0:18:080:18:11

-My dad was a bus driver...

0:18:180:18:20

-..and he always wore

-the company's jacket and trousers.

0:18:210:18:25

-He always looked very dapper

-with his peaked cap on his head.

0:18:250:18:29

-I think it may stem from my father.

0:18:310:18:33

-I loved wearing a blazer with a

-badge, a tie and a white shirt...

0:18:340:18:39

-..when I was a student.

0:18:390:18:41

-Being well-groomed

-was important to me...

0:18:410:18:44

-..even at a young age.

0:18:450:18:46

-When you retire,

-you're in charge of your own life.

0:18:480:18:52

-I think about what I'll wear

-that day when I'm in the shower.

0:18:530:18:57

-I find the decision-making process

-very enjoyable.

0:18:570:19:01

-It's down to a hunch in the end.

0:19:010:19:03

-My life is now driven by hunches

-or intuition...

0:19:030:19:07

-..and that's totally true

-about the clothes I wear.

0:19:070:19:11

-I must

-feel comfortable in my clothes.

0:19:110:19:14

-The process of deciding what to wear

-is a part of my life.

0:19:140:19:18

-Your room is tidy, so I suspect

-your wardrobe will be too.

0:19:190:19:23

-Yes, just for you!

0:19:230:19:25

-This is my wardrobe.

0:19:250:19:27

-Let's start with this suit.

0:19:270:19:29

-It's one of my favourites.

0:19:290:19:31

-It has a Nehru collar as you can

-see, and it's Italian.

0:19:310:19:36

-It has a purple lining.

0:19:360:19:37

-It has a purple lining.

-

-It's nice.

0:19:370:19:38

-It's really well made.

0:19:390:19:40

-When you buy suits

-on the continent...

0:19:400:19:43

-..you never

-supply your own measurements.

0:19:430:19:46

-They measure you

-and cut it to suit your legs.

0:19:480:19:51

-They do it in the shop?

0:19:510:19:52

-They do it in the shop?

-

-Yes, it's all part of the service.

0:19:520:19:54

-You don't have to smile sweetly

-at your wife!

0:19:540:19:57

-No. I already do enough of that!

0:19:590:20:01

-Where do you buy your clothes?

0:20:040:20:07

-The vast majority of my clothes

-come from France.

0:20:080:20:11

-That's because French men and women

-show respect for their clothes.

0:20:140:20:20

-I'm a man who carries a bag.

0:20:230:20:25

-I lost my spectacles in France

-a few years ago...

0:20:250:20:28

-..because I carried it in my hand.

0:20:290:20:32

-I get some funny looks when people

-see my handbag but I don't care!

0:20:320:20:36

-I'm fond of my bags.

-They keep me well-organized.

0:20:370:20:41

-My pockets don't bulge either,

-of course.

0:20:410:20:44

-These are my summer jumpers.

0:20:440:20:46

-I'll show them to you in a pile.

0:20:470:20:49

-Gabicci is quite a common brand.

0:20:490:20:51

-I also have a shirt.

0:20:510:20:53

-I'll hold those for you.

0:20:540:20:55

-The orange shirt

-goes with the orange jumper.

0:20:580:21:01

-The blue shirt

-goes with the blue jumper.

0:21:010:21:04

-This one matches the green jumper.

0:21:070:21:10

-The fact they co-ordinate

-is important.

0:21:110:21:14

-Men tend to wear greys and blacks

-and I always broke away from that.

0:21:150:21:21

-The driving force behind

-the way I choose my clothes...

0:21:220:21:26

-..is my desire to express myself.

0:21:260:21:29

-This is my leather jacket.

0:21:310:21:32

-It came from Devred.

0:21:330:21:34

-It's a black, leather jacket and

-I wear a grey polo neck under it.

0:21:340:21:39

-The neckline is important to me.

0:21:390:21:42

-I also wear a hat with this jacket.

0:21:440:21:46

-I'm a hat man.

0:21:460:21:48

-When you have hair like mine,

-you need a hat on windy days!

0:21:480:21:52

-Shall I put it on my head?

0:21:520:21:53

-Shall I put it on my head?

-

-Yes, please.

0:21:530:21:55

-Smart! It's fantastic.

0:21:560:21:58

-There's a feather in my cap!

0:21:580:22:00

-I wear a grey hat with black clothes

-but never with brown clothes.

0:22:000:22:05

-I'll show you my brown hat.

0:22:050:22:07

-May I try it?

0:22:070:22:08

-May I try it?

-

-Yes, of course.

0:22:080:22:10

-I bought that at La Samaritaine

-in Paris.

0:22:100:22:13

-It suits you.

-How much will you give me for it?

0:22:140:22:17

-I'd love to say I'm the boss...

0:22:230:22:25

-..but the truth is my wife

-is passionate about colour.

0:22:260:22:29

-She's a talented seamstress and she

-makes cravats and scarves for me.

0:22:300:22:35

-You ski, don't you?

0:22:440:22:45

-Yes. I took up cross-country skiing

-after I retired.

0:22:450:22:49

-We went to Norway in our camper van

-and I saw bikini-clad women skiing!

0:22:490:22:54

-"What a great idea!"

-I said to myself.

0:22:550:22:58

-I bought skis, boots and poles

-for 43.

0:22:580:23:01

-You wear several layers of black

-Lycra when you ski cross-country.

0:23:050:23:10

-You remove the layers,

-according to the weather.

0:23:100:23:14

-They're sleek, black clothes

-which minimize wind resistance.

0:23:140:23:18

-This is my dressing gown

-and its colours match the bedroom.

0:23:280:23:32

-I also have two pairs

-of pyjama bottoms and a vest...

0:23:340:23:37

-..which match the dressing gown.

0:23:380:23:40

-They match the decor.

0:23:400:23:42

-I even have matching slippers.

0:23:420:23:45

-I buy my slippers in France.

0:23:460:23:48

-I wouldn't dream of wearing slippers

-which don't match my clothes.

0:23:480:23:53

-These are my flavour of the month,

-at the moment.

0:23:540:23:57

-If we redecorate the bedroom,

-I'll have to change them.

0:23:570:24:00

-The decor comes first

-then the dressing gown!

0:24:000:24:03

-My wife won't let me decorate

-the bedroom to match my clothes.

0:24:030:24:07

-Would you be horrified

-if you went to a wedding...

0:24:160:24:19

-..and someone was wearing

-the same suit as you?

0:24:200:24:24

-I can't imagine it happening but

-if it did, I wouldn't be horrified.

0:24:240:24:30

-I'd be delighted

-to meet someone who shared my taste.

0:24:310:24:35

-If there is someone similar to me

-out there, I've yet to meet him!
