Actor and singer Claire Sweeney

What’s the last piece of clothing you bought?

I bought my mum a blouse from Next. It’s peach with pearl beads sewn onto it.

What are you addicted to buying?

I’m a real make-up junkie and love brands including Jane Iredale, bareminerals and NARS.

Best ever bargain?

Anything from Primark, as you can have a real binge buy there.

Who has great style?

Elle Macpherson. I love everything she wears and always take her picture into the hairdressers when I’m getting my hair done.

Name your favourite high street shop.

Primark.

Any fashion disasters you’d care to tell us about?

Lots in the Eighties. One outfit that springs to mind consisted of gold leather trousers with a matching gold bra and a chiffon

blouse over the top.

What’s your favourite item in your wardrobe?

The white Halston jumpsuit that I got in LA and wore to the premiere of Carousel in London’s West End. n
