My life in clothes: Katy Setterfield

Published on Wednesday 8 October 2008 14:51

What was your favourite childhood outfit?

It would have been a horse riding outfit. I was forever in jodhpurs as a kid and I had a horse called Gypsy.

What were you wearing when you met your present partner?

I'm a bit of a rock chick, so I think it would have been jeans and a T-shirt.

What did you wear to get married?

I wore an off-the-peg, sapphire blue dress from Debenhams. We spent more money on our honeymoon than on the wedding.

Do you have Saturday night underwear?

I adore underwear from Victoria's Secret, so I stock up when I'm in the US. When I'm at home it's M&S.

Prada or Primark?

I always associate Prada clothes with older people. I still like to dress quite funkily, so I prefer Primark. Although, my favourite high street shops are French Connection and Gap.

What was your worst fashion faux-pas?

I think it was when I was a goth in my teen years. I had black hair and wore long skirts teamed with bovver boots.

If you could afford any designer, who would you choose?

I'd love a Stella McCartney dress.
