We've been here a while - With Hillary Bacon of Cordings (#77)

from Garmology - A podcast about clothes, and stuff. · host Nick Johannessen

My guest today represents tradition, resilience and doing what you do well. Hillary Bacon is the marketing director of Cordings of Piccadilly, a clothing establishment that has been basically unchanged since 1839, although the world around has changed fundamentally. We talk about how Cordings started and those important first products, how society has evolved, appreciating that some things don't have to change, being able to replace your old with the same new, how Eric Clapton saw the window display and bought half the shop and keeping traditions alive.You can find Cordings of Piccadilly on the web here, and on Instagram as @cordingsofpiccadillyGarmology is researched, booked, hosted, edited, published, paid for and everything else by Nick Johannessen.
