Why I was suited to Thatcherism
LADY Thatcher’s suits have been up for sale and I wondered what happened to a certain navy blue Chanel one with a contrasting collar.
When I was a student at Oxford I bought an identical suit in a Chanel sale for £5 to wear for interviews and many years later saw the lady herself in its twin.
I bet she paid more than £5 but assuredly, with her famous frugality, she kept hers for more than a decade longer than I did!
