We achieved several many years back as learners in Manchester, ended up sharing a flat alongside one another and expended additional time at the Haçienda than we did in the library. Edward switched classes to analyze graphic style, and on graduating re-experienced as a tailor. Relocating to London, he set up himself as a costume designer for theatre and opera until an supply came together to function on the cult Tv set exhibit Skins. ‘It was the best task for me. The demonstrate was so brilliant and groundbreaking, and it didn’t issue to them that I did not know what the hell I was doing half the time. It was good.’

As a costume designer, he’s managed the wardrobe division on almost everything from historical dramas to Hollywood videos: which include War & Peace, The Honourable Woman, Black Mirror and Oscar-nominated The Lost Daughter. Adapted from the Elena Ferrante novel, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s acclaimed directorial debut stars: Olivia Colman, Jessie Buckley (both equally up for Oscars, alongside with Gyllenhaal for finest tailored screenplay), Ed Harris, Dakota Johnson and Paul Mescal. And simply because the crew have been doing the job in a aid bubble, Edward will make an visual appeal as an excess on the dancefloor…
