In her city boutique, Field gave her encouragement and advice.

She recalls one individual who came out at 68, after the death of their mother, and another wearing a dress for the first time. “I didn’t come from this world, they found me,” she says. “They are attracted to my style, my energy, my colour.”, Cruddas has collaborated with Peaches Queen, the talented Irish star and youngest ever Alternative Miss Ireland, on a photo shoot seen here titled “Love is Love”, with three looks – Two Queens Tying the Knot, Disco Divas and J’Adore Dior.
