"I wanted the correct cut and the correct silhouette, but then took liberties with the fabrics... We bought jeans from charity shops around Slough. All the kitchen staff's costumes are made from old jeans."

Sandy Powell discusses her inspiration behind her award winning costumes for The Favourite. The film, starring Olivia Colman, Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz, tells the story of Queen Anne and her female relationships at court. Curator Matthew Storey gives us an insight into the history of this fascinating period, and Queen Anne's link to Kensington Palace.
