So, how did Millie feel about stripping back her wardrobe, both to raise money for a good cause, and to keep up with her changing body? As we all know too well, lots of clear-outs start with the best intentions of decluttering, but somehow end in a reel of excuses... ‘I might need this one day,’ when in reality that hot pink boobtube from the noughties will still be in its rightful place, buried in a draw until your next clear-out.
She's not a saint though - Mackintosh has been tempted to use Cudoni to shop, as well as to sell. Her most recent Cudoni purchase? A vintagebag, ‘I really love it,’ she said, ‘you see people in the street with the most recent bag of the time and everyone else has got a similar bag, but if you go to a vintage shop it’s a bit more unusual.’We can't resist asking whether Millie has any top tips for hunting down quality vintage.
She’s working her way around the bump by opting for smock style dresses with ‘a kind of 70s style, where it’s loose,’ she tells us. ‘The main thing with my maternity style is I want to still look like me and feel like me,’ the mother-to-be said - something that pregnant women all over the UK will understand.
Millie is enjoying discovering how she wants to dress her bump. She said, ‘sometimes I think it looks nice to wear something loose and comfortable, then other times a bit more fitted, and I can really show it off,’ a similar predicament that she’s having at the moment with what to wear to the British Fashion Awards next Monday.
