Riddle me this…..Pip Howeson
Bespoke tailoring handcrafted from the finest British fabrics
If you knew then what you know now… would you still do it?
Yes definitely - no regrets. I might have done more … bet on the winner in the National, hedged on London property, moved my shoes from near the puppy’s bed…
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
A great friend of mine said, ‘we all revert to form, therefore always be yourself’
What’s the weirdest rumour you’ve ever heard about yourself?
That I sometimes pretend to be my sister!
What was your biggest break?
Making a piece for Nic Fiddian Green – creatively and spiritually it opened my mind. Also, working for Jack Wills in the golden years.
Do you consider yourself lucky?
Yes, sometimes uncomfortably so.
What’s most important in your life?
The British countryside - it makes me feel free.
What brands do you admire?
Brunello Cucinelli, Carolina Herrera & Santa Maria Novella
Do you have a guilty pleasure – if so what is it?
It’s so guilty its awful, but I think I share it with most: The Mail online.
