A bit about... Lulu Guinness

by Ewen Storm
12/ 5/2005

HANDBAG designer to the stars Lulu Guinness was in Harvey Nichols Manchester this week signing copies of her new book, Put on Your Pearls Girls.

The first thing I do when I wake up is...have 3 cups of coffee

Ideally I would spend every day...feeling on top of the world

If money was no object I would...turn left when I entered an aeroplane

The greatest gift I have ever received was...my dog Woffle

My one piece of advice would be...be the person you were meant to be - NOT who others think you ought to be

My first job was...a waitress

I'm scared of...rats

I'm excited by...travelling to new places

If I could go back in time and do one thing again it would be...you only learn from your mistakes

I love...my children Tara and Madeleine

I hate...cruelty

I want..a new kitchen

You have to read...my new book Put on your Pearls, Girls!

Everyone should listen to...Eartha Kitt

You must watch...Spanglish

If I could be anyone else I would be...Sylvie Guilleum

My ultimate ambition would be...to live by the sea

My biggest inspiration has been...Elsa Schiaparelli's fifth commandment: Ninety percent are afraid of being conspicuous, and of what people will say. So they buy a grey suit. They should dare to be different.

The first time I fell in love...it was not reciprocated

I think God is...LOVE

I think the death penalty is...humans thinking they are God

My epitaph would be...Nothing is worth more than this day

Fur or faux? Faux

Mayonnaise or salad cream?Mayonnaise - Hellman's light

Eastenders or Coronation Street? Coronation Street

Daily Mail or Guardian? Guardian
