-In this programme... | 0:00:20 | 0:00:21 | |
-..contemporary style -which is influenced by music. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
-Vintage clothes -with tales to tell... | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
-..and which open the door -to a family tree. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
-First, we take Cwpwrdd Dillad -to the stables. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
-Welcome to Cwpwrdd Dillad. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
-Gucci started his career -in the equestrian world... | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
-..so I could be the next Gucci! | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
-Horses have always been -central to Hannah's life. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
-She has an eye for fashion -and a head for business. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
-Come in. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
-This is the studio -at the hub of the business. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
-From an old stable on their farm... | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
-..Hannah and her mother -run an equestrian clothing company. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
-It started because of me. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
-When it gets busy, Mam says, -"It's all your fault!" | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
-I'm tall and thin with long arms. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
-I couldn't get a riding jacket -to fit me. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
-Dad said he didn't want to spend -150 to 200 on a jacket... | 0:01:38 | 0:01:43 | |
-..only for it to be altered. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
-He suggested to Mam that as -she'd studied textiles in college... | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
-..she could make a jacket. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
-That's what she did. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
-I went to the shows and people -asked me where I got my jacket. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
-I was embarrassed -to admit my mother made it... | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
-..but look what came of that! | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
-People asked Mam -to make one for them... | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
-..so we now have a business with -all this and the stock downstairs. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:13 | |
-How does the business work? -How do customers order garments? | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
-Mam measures them... | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
-..then they choose a fabric -and a style which suits them. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
-They may have seen something -in a magazine... | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
-..but would prefer a different collar -or different sleeves. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
-If you bring a magazine here, we'll -create a bespoke design for you. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:46 | |
-It's like a wedding dress - -equestrian couture. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
-Yes, and it's important. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
-Equestrian events -are like fashion shows. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
-Everyone wants to look their best. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
-Take me through the different looks. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
-The tweed jackets are for -the Mountain and Moorland breeds. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:06 | |
-This blue jacket -is for the Show Ponies. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
-For this, navy is always worn, -never tweed. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
-This is a side saddle habit. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
-Can you hold that for me? -Thank you. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
-I'll move this pretty lady -back a bit! | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
-In the olden days, -it would have been a full skirt... | 0:03:27 | 0:03:31 | |
-..but it's since been adapted. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
-When riding side saddle, -the left leg is raised. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
-The skirt is draped -across the leg, like so. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
-When it's worn like this, -it looks like a skirt. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
-This bit tucks under the knee. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
-Let me hold up the skirt -to show the back to you. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
-It's really short. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:53 | |
-It rests on top of the saddle. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
-To the judge's eye, -it looks like a full skirt... | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
-..but it's far easier -for the rider to wear. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
-When they dismount, they don't want -their bottom in full view... | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
-..so they take the fabric -that was tucked under your knee. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:12 | |
-It wraps around the back, -covering everything. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
-For the sake of decency! | 0:04:16 | 0:04:17 | |
-For the sake of decency! - -Very decent. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:18 | |
-Are these clothes expensive? | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
-As you'd expect, I say they're not! | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
-A jacket such as this -costs around 250. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
-These designs are either -my mother's work or my own work... | 0:04:29 | 0:04:34 | |
-..and almost every garment we sell -is handmade. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
-Did you design this one? | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
-No, my mother designed it. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
-The jacket is called The Hannah, -after me! | 0:04:50 | 0:04:53 | |
-That's a lovely touch. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:55 | |
-Yes, and it's easy for us -to remember its name. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
-I ordered one to wear -when I judge at shows. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
-It's a little bit baggy -at the front... | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
-..so Mam will put two darts there, -to make it a bit more fitted. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:11 | |
-It will suit my young figure. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
-Are fashion and style important, -even with equestrian clothes? | 0:05:14 | 0:05:19 | |
-Yes, I'm the one in the ring -and I'm the model for the business. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:23 | |
-I wear something striking so people -ask me where I got the jacket. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:28 | |
-This is my dressing room. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
-This is my dressing room. - -You have your own dressing room! | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
-Yes. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:09 | |
-This is my wardrobe. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:11 | |
-The first thing I noticed -was the tweed. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
-Your wardrobe is almost an -extension of the equestrian world. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:19 | |
-Yes. Here's my favourite coat. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
-It took a long time to persuade Dad -I needed one! | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
-And that he needed to pay for it! | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
-And that he needed to pay for it! - -Yes, of course! | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
-I love this jacket. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
-I wear it to go shopping -and when I go out to town. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
-At first glance, -it looks traditional. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
-That's because of the fabric. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:41 | |
-The shape is young -and rather unusual. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
-Yes, the additional fabrics add -a twist to something traditional. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:50 | |
-The first time I saw it I thought -it was nice and young. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:55 | |
-I've seen older people -in this jacket... | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
-..and it looks just as modern -on them. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:00 | |
-How do you wear it? | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
-I usually wear skinny jeans -with everything! | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
-There's yellow and blue -in this jacket. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
-It goes with either blue jeans -or white jeans. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
-The white ones look great... | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
-..but they're not practical -for a show. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
-No, not really. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:20 | |
-I also have -a pair of Victoria Beckham jeans. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:25 | |
-If I'm going somewhere posh, -I'll wear them. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
-I don't want to look like a snob! | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
-They're expensive! | 0:07:31 | 0:07:32 | |
-You smiled nicely at Dad again! | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
-I'm his only daughter, -so there are a few perks! | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
-I got this belt -from one of the big shows. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
-It fastens like this and looks -really nice with a pair of jeans. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
-It isn't Gucci -but nobody else knows! | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
-Do you enjoy mixing the traditional -with the young and funky? | 0:08:10 | 0:08:15 | |
-Yes, I'm a young girl -and I like high street fashion... | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
-..and the clothes I see -in magazines. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
-I was raised with tweeds -and traditional fabrics... | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
-..so I combine both -to create a unique style of my own. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
-I like the retro sport look. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
-I like 1980s fashion -and the clean-cut look. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:48 | |
-One glance around your room -and I feel as if I know you already. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:16 | |
-You're into all this stuff, -aren't you? | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
-Yes, I collect trinkets. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:21 | |
-I've always done it -and now I have a nice collection. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
-When it comes to vinyl, -I find it aesthetically pleasing. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:32 | |
-I like putting the needle -on the record. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
-I like the whole geekiness of it. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
-The little things other people -would find mundane appeal to me. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:43 | |
-You mentioned geekiness. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
-Is geek chic your general look? | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
-I'd agree with geek -but I don't know about chic! | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
-Everything I have is geeky! | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
-I'm into Star Wars. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
-I collect games, cards and stickers. -I've done it since I was a kid. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:06 | |
-Do you collect clothes too? | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
-Yes, it's part of the same appeal. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
-I never throw anything away. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
-Once I own a garment, -it isn't easy to throw it away. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:21 | |
-It has sentimental value. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
-You can't possibly wear -those battered shoes! | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
-I sound like your mother! | 0:10:28 | 0:10:29 | |
-I sound like your mother! - -Yes, Mam tells me to throw them out. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
-I just can't bring myself -to get rid of them. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
-They're a lovely fit on my feet. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
-Just like a pair of sandals, -they're well ventilated! | 0:10:39 | 0:10:43 | |
-I wear them in the summer. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:45 | |
-I like to feel the wind on my feet! | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
-A string of excuses! | 0:10:50 | 0:10:51 | |
-A string of excuses! - -Yes, I knew you'd ask about them! | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
-Do you spend a fortune on clothes? | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
-No, not at all. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
-I try to keep it under 20. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:15 | |
-If I spent more, I'd always know -I could have done better. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
-What is the appeal -of vintage, retro clothes for you? | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
-The fact that -I've found them myself. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:35 | |
-I always know I haven't paid -a lot of money for clothes. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
-When I see other people's clothes, -I know they've paid double for them. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:46 | |
-It's a kind of personal victory. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
-This is a 100% cashmere jumper -and I only paid 8 for it. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:08 | |
-It's a really nice jumper. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:10 | |
-There's a hole in the cuff. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:13 | |
-Didn't that bother you? | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
-Didn't that bother you? - -No, not for 8! You can't go wrong. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
-This is a Ralph Lauren polo shirt -and I only paid 10 for it. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:27 | |
-If I bought it new, -it would have cost a fortune. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
-You have a nose for a bargain. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
-Yes, I'm a bit of a David Dickinson! | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
-Yes, I'm a bit of a David Dickinson! - -Yes, but your skin's not orange! | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
-You're colour blind, aren't you? | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
-Doesn't that cause problems -when you get dressed? | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |
-I usually stick to dark colours. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:55 | |
-The problems start -when I go for bright colours. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:59 | |
-I once bought what I thought was -a pair of white winkle-pickers... | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
-..and my girlfriend asked me -why I was wearing baby pink shoes! | 0:13:05 | 0:13:10 | |
-I'd worn them for a fortnight, -thinking I was super cool! | 0:13:10 | 0:13:14 | |
-Hearing they were pink was a blow! | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
-What else do you have? | 0:13:21 | 0:13:22 | |
-Wow! I like this one. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:24 | |
-Yes, that's a real gem. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
-The fabric is really weird. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
-It's called Tyvek and astronauts -use it when they go to outer space. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:35 | |
-Really? -Do astronauts use this fabric? | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
-Yes, I think so. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
-I doubt this jacket is practical -for astronauts, mind you! | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
-There's a sweatband here -if they fancied jogging on the moon! | 0:13:44 | 0:13:49 | |
-If you look at the back, -you'll see it opens from the hood. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:54 | |
-That's great! | 0:13:54 | 0:13:55 | |
-What's your favourite item? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
-I'd have to go -for this Adidas tracksuit top. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
-I love Adidas track jackets. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
-I can wear this top when I go out. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
-I can also wear it -when I'm dressed casually. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
-It's getting -a bit too small for me... | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
-..but, like the shoes, -it's here to stay. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:30 | |
-Even if the sleeves are up there, -it doesn't matter! | 0:14:30 | 0:14:34 | |
-No, I'll always keep it. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
-I won't lose track of it! | 0:14:36 | 0:14:38 | |
-Pardon the pun! | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
-. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:55 | |

-Hello, Nia! | 0:15:06 | 0:15:07 | |
-Hello, Nia! - -Hello, Delyth. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
-It makes me aware of my roots. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
-It opens the door to history. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
-Delyth has inherited old clothes -from her family. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
-They date back over four generations -to the mid-18th century. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:31 | |
-These are family treasures. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
-Yes, but it wasn't always true. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
-When I was teaching, the children -wore them for Christmas concerts. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:41 | |
-They weren't treated -with much respect! | 0:15:42 | 0:15:45 | |
-When I retired, I did some research -into them and it's interesting. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:50 | |
-I looked into the history of -the people who wore these clothes. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
-This belonged to -your great-great-grandmother. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
-This belonged to -your great-grandmother. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
-This belonged to your grandmother. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
-Yes, -my grandmother was called Margaret. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:10 | |
-She was one of 13 children. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
-At a young age, she was sent away -to work as a maid in a mansion. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
-That's when she wore these clothes. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
-She wore cuffs on her wrists. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
-She wore this on her head. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
-This is amazing - -such intricate craftsmanship. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
-In later life, -she dressed like a lady. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
-I remember her wearing an apron -and her hair in a bun when working. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |
-When she'd finished the housework... | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
-..my grandmother would have a wash -and she'd change her clothes. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:49 | |
-She'd put her hair in two plaits -and wrap them around her head... | 0:16:49 | 0:16:53 | |
-..and wear clothes from New York. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
-She was then ready -to receive visitors to the house. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
-She was a real lady. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
-Clothes from New York! How come? | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
-One of her sisters had gone -to New York to work as a nanny... | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
-..when she was really young. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
-During the War, when everyone here -had to use coupons to buy clothes... | 0:17:13 | 0:17:18 | |

-He travelled the country -buying flannel... | 0:17:46 | 0:17:50 | |
-..and preaching at the same time! | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
-I imagine him on horseback, -wearing this cloak. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
-How old is this cape? | 0:17:59 | 0:18:00 | |
-The style dates back -to the mid-19th century. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:08 | |
-They'd pass down clothes -from one generation to the next. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:12 | |
-It's hard to tell when he wore it. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
-Before he died, it was -Reverend Richard Williams's wish... | 0:18:23 | 0:18:28 | |
-..that each of his children -should have a Peter Williams Bible. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:32 | |
-This is the Bible he gave to Mary, -my great-great-grandmother. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
-The clothes behind me -belonged to Mary. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
-The bonnet and the blouse -belonged to her. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
-These were her pantaloons. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
-That's a nursing shawl. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
-The baby would feed -and the mother had her hands free. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:56 | |
-She could carry on with housework -or spinning on the wheel... | 0:18:56 | 0:19:00 | |
-..while she nursed her baby. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
-Mary had a brother -who was also a Methodist minister. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:09 | |
-She lost a baby and he wrote -a letter of condolence to her. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:17 | |
-In it he says... | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
-.."In the hope this solemn event... | 0:19:19 | 0:19:24 | |
-"..under Heaven's blessing... | 0:19:24 | 0:19:26 | |
-..causes you to fully reflect -upon your own death." | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
-Isn't that terrible? | 0:19:30 | 0:19:31 | |
-It seems strange to us today. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
-She replies to his letter by writing -poems about the loss of a child. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:39 | |
-"My heavy heart and sad soul -yearn for you, my bonny babe." | 0:19:39 | 0:19:44 | |
-I often think about her. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:48 | |
-Sadly, losing a child was -a common occurrence in those days. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:53 | |
-When you talk about -your family history... | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
-..and you look at these clothes... | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
-..history comes alive to you. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
-You didn't know your -great-great-grandmother, of course. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
-No, but I've read extensively -about her and my other relatives. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:18 | |
