TALK OF THE TOWN: Controversial Downing Street designer Lulu Lytle comes out to fight
Downing Street designer Lulu Lytle has campaigned after her style was branded as “imperial nostalgia”.
Author Sathnam Sanghera tweeted the term, describing the prime minister’s apartment she helped decorate and furnish – above Chancellor Rishi Sunak’s office – as the “ultimate brown person’s nightmare”.
My photo below shows an example of Lulu’s style.
She tells me that her work is “underpinned by research and discussions with experts on global influences on design and the exchange of ideas”.
She hired textile expert Karun Thakar to defend her, and he messaged me saying, “We need people like Lulu who are aware of these struggles and support them.”

Thandiwe’s act is really crazy
When I first saw this Instagram snap of Line of Duty star Thandiwe Newton, I thought she’d been at a kids’ party and got carried away by one of the youngsters with some crayons.
In fact, this etching of the cartoon character Touché Turtle appears to be a real tattoo that will not rub off with soap and water.
The Bafta winner, 49, said the heroic fencing reptile was her “childhood favourite” and that she had the inking done by Frith Street Tattoo in London’s Soho.
It will be interesting to see how it pairs with her next red carpet dress.

Daisy Lowe claimed she was “Covid tested and ready to party” as she took this bathroom selfie.
I would argue that she wasn’t quite ready yet as she’s missing something pretty important – her clothes.
The 33-year-old model and former Strictly Come Dancing contestant, daughter of rocker Gavin Rossdale and fashion designer Pearl Lowe, wore just a black bra, high-waisted underwear and tights.
Later in the week, she posted her first-ever TikTok video, once again not dressing much.
“I recommend shaking off those gray days and dancing around in your underwear,” she wrote. Daisy will be frozen to the bone if she keeps this up.
