One of my favourite London stores and brands is Anya Hindmarch and for the release of the movie "The Iron Lady" last month, Anya gave her shop windows a Thatcher makeover. Dressing three mannequins in a mixture of UK brands; Marks and Spencer and Aquascutum. Complete with a Thatcher 'signature bouffant' wig each. Each Maggie has a bespoke Anya Hindmarch Ebury handbag - the ex Prime Minister's favourite style of bag. Both Thatcher and Meryl Streep own an Anya Hindmarch Ebury handbag.
Anya Hindmarch collaborated with costume designer Tamar Zaig to create the Thatcher windows. Zaig famously created the looks for the Thatcher puppet on the satirical TV show Spitting Image.
V clever!
