Inside Trinny Woodall's colour-coordinated wardrobe | In The Closet | The Sunday Times Style

Published 2024-04-01
Before Trinny Woodall was the queen of make up bags, she was the queen of our wardrobes. Certainly, the journalist turned fashion virtuoso has built a career on telling the world what to wear. Actually, as those born before 1995 will remember, she told us what not to wear, with a little help from her friend and partner Susannah Constantine with whom she made a hit BBC TV show. For the latest instalment of In The Closet, our series that sees the Style team journey into the Narnia that are other peoples wardrobes, we visited the beauty entrepreneur at home and asked her to choose some of the fashion classics that meant the most to her. We’re talking buys from everywhere from Prada to her beloved Zara (‘I have to stop myself from going in,” she told us). It's a sight to behold! But don’t take our word for it: tune into the video for the full lowdown - plus plenty of wardrobe hacks to update your wardrobe for the new season. Notepads at the ready!

    Trinny always makes a great guest as she is knowledgeable, personable and has an opinion. Her wardrobe, including bags, jewellery, shoes etc is just epic and built over her lifetime. ❤
  • @rocklobstah1876
    Wow, the undershirt /shoulder pad reveal is the unsung hero, scaffolding of every look, which makes her clothes hang in balance to her figure... Trinny, thanks for being so open and honest ❤
  • @ZARABAROUCH
    I love how Trinny has marked the moment she got a bag by adding a photo from that time. I often buy a bag to celebrate a landmark moment in my life and I think now I will add a photo in the tags now too 🤍

    I have followed Trinny for years, she has helped me to face my body shape,and now i can wear leopard print. I love the way she embraces a concept and makes it happen.....both "high-end" and "high street".
  • Just wonderful - always fabulous to see someone so comfortable with who they are
  • @antoniawood1854

    Trinny really changed the way I look at dressing. Actually she changed the way partly how I look at life. I love her. She is a fighter and at the same time very in the flow.
  • @Getmelolly
    Love love love Trinny! Her wardrobe is fun, alive and inspiring.
  • I love Trinny! My style is very different, much quieter, but then, I’m not in the public eye as she is. She is always fun to watch.
  • I love her philosophy of not forgetting how lovely dressing for joy can be. The sparkle in her silver pieces make me happy. They are simply fun. Why not add a little sparkle to your wardrobe? I like her attitude of dressing for yourself and your mood.

    Love trinny, love how she says dressing it down 😂 she’s in sparkling silver, 😂
  • @MsBritishwoman
    I'm surprised she doesn't have clear dust jackets on the darker garments.... it saves me swapping of the dust as I know I don't wear them/ disturb them daily. It's a real life saver!
  • @juliadecadenet
    It’s really great to know when you buy an item you don’t have to wear it as it but you can customise it. That takes confidence and Trinny has bags of that
  • @user-do7ft4kj2j
    3:28 I absolutely love Trinni bc she is a risk taker. Not sure her outfits always work, but that’s not the point- she leaves room for fun and mistakes. And When she gets it right, omg! Pure genius. She’s the best!

    Such a professional. Both of the ladies, a delight to watch.
