Getting dolled up for the big fin de siècle party at the end of lockdown. Call me a northern miserabilist but I won’t be buying any special partywear for a potential Gatsby-grade knees-up. I have plenty already. And while I can’t wait to see my friends and get back to normal, my only sartorial plan for When All This Is Over is to throw out a pair of off-white canvas trainers trashed along the way.
