My Wardrobe Malfunction - podcast cover

My Wardrobe Malfunction

Clearwood Mediamywardmal.com
My Wardrobe Malfunction is a podcast about dressing up, down and everything in between. Described as ‘the Desert Island Discs of clothes’, the podcast celebrates what we wear, why we wear it and why sometimes we wish we didn’t. Launched in 2020 and originally hosted by Susannah Constantine, we're back in 2025 with Charlie Hedges in the hot seat - welcoming a dazzling array of guests from film, music, TV, fashion, politics, sport and beyond. The only requirement? They must wear clothes. (At least during the interviews.)

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
