Yes, it gives a certain impression of what you are like. And that is something which is fun to play around with!

Alex
What are you wearing?
Everything I wear is vintage. The suit and shoes are from East Street market and the hat is second hand from Liverpool Street.
Are clothes important for you to express yourself?
For me it is important to wear clothes that I enjoy wearing. At the moment I am especially happy with my 1930’s accordion which was made in Italy.
What is your best shopping advice in London?
I recommend south London, you have some great second hand shops and can find a suit for about £2. East London has become quite commercial and attracts big crowds, but south London has still got that village feeling. I want to promote south London!
