The interview for GQ.

— talking about clothing style and fashion:

"I like the clothes that I wear in my personal life so that’s why I try to incorporate them into [press looks].”

“They’re a bit of me. That’s how I like to go about doing press: just be authentic as best as I can.”

“Sustainability is a big thing in my life, it’s something I’m very passionate about.”

“The whole idea of single-use outfits just grinds my gears, it’s totally unnecessary.”

He and his stylist Tom O’Dell have spent the year browsing vintage markets and second-hand stores for unique pieces they can fuse together for a big look.

“It’s all preloved and it tells a story – not just from a sustainability point of view but it’s about its character and how things have aged.”

— talking about king aegon ii targaryen in 'house of the dragon' S2:

“You can take the character on a full arc and find lots of different colours to his palette, which is always interesting from an actor’s point of view."

"I feel like by the end of season two, I know Aegon so much more than I did at the end of season one.”

“I feel like on that set, it’s such an ensemble-led project and everybody has their own moment. There doesn’t feel like any hierarchy in that sense but, obviously, when I put the crown on my head, I’ve got to convince myself I’m more important.”

— the serious answer: Tom Glynn-Carney lives in the countryside now, his instagram bio reads ‘aspiring farmer’:

“If I’m out by the woodshed I’m gonna get caked in all sorts of crap so [I wear] stuff that I’m not too precious about.”

“I don’t think I own anything that’s new anymore, I’ve tried to weed that out, and any new purchase is always second-hand.”

It also helps that he has Joe Mills, his grooming guy, on-hand too.

— Tom Glynn-Carney’s fit for the 'House of Dragon' S2 London premiere, is something he’s already worn before:

“It’s a 1970s pinstripe suit. It’s brown with caramel pinstripe, high-waisted, slightly flared trousers.”

“I wore it for a stock photoshoot a few months back and I liked it so much I wanted to nail that on for one of the major looks for this tour.”

He found a dream stylist in the form of O’Dell, who specialises in second-hand clothing and has connections with vintage stores all over Europe:

“His studio is just a Mecca for all of that stuff.”

“I trust him wholeheartedly to be able to point me in the right direction.”

— About the influence that inspired Fabien Frankel on the red carpet:

“For the record, [Fabien] copied me, so write that down!”

I have spoken again.

(Btw obviously a joke pls don’t take what I say too seriously) 🖤

Falling in stride with her husband, Wilhelmina Charlotte Caroline (known best as Caroline of Ansbach) was equally as radiant. Tall, full-figured, with a large bosom and a head of shimmering blonde hair, she enchanted her new subjects. Her successes were elevated infinitely by her commitment to learning English and, by the time of her arrival in Britain, she was the best English speaker out of the entire imported royal family. Caroline was considered the darling of the lot.

Land Army Uniform from Carlisle, England dated to 1939 on display at the Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery in Carlisle, England

This uniform belonged to Ann Penrice to work on the farms in the Wigton area during the Second World War. She was born in Workington and live in Carlisle. Ann was a "Land Girl" in the Women's Land Army for many years and the bands mark her length of service.

The Women's Land Army was set up to support the agricultural industry in Britain while many men were fighting in the Second World War. They worked all over the country and in all weathers and conditions with little training or preperation for these tasks. Despite ensuring the steady supply of food and the maintenance of natural resources like forests, they were paid much less than men and had to pay for lodging as well. Many also worked with prisoners of war from Italy and Germany.
