I'm the grandson of fashion designer Marian Clayden, doing a PhD dedicated to her art and fashion. I'm also setting up a foundation in her name and collecting pieces I can find. I would love to talk about acquiring my grandmother's work from you.

Hi Alex, I cannot express how delighted I am that you made contact ! Looking at your photo, it's pretty clear you are a Clayden, even without the beautiful jacket !
I will always love Marian and Roger, we shared such wonderful times together and she knew how much I understood and appreciated her artistry. She laughed to hear me explaining fabrics and garments to potential clients or store buyers, because I spoke with such enthusiasm and depth of knowledge about her techniques and style.

I modelled for her a few times, and styled a number of fashion shoots for her and Roger. A number of those were shot in my home, even using my accessories on the models. I modelled for Roger myself a couple of times, using his shots to attach to my acting bio when I was doing that in the Bay Area.
I treasure the garments they gifted me in thanks for my efforts, as I treasure all of her garments.

Hi Kat! Thanks for getting in touch. What a wonderful story. Would you like to send me an email, I'd love to discuss this further! My researcher page is linked in my bio, with my contact details. I can't share emails in comments, or Poshmark gets mad.

@katstyle Sorry, forgot to tag you.

I have slowly gifted a few items to special friends and nieces, and you see what I've listed for sale on Poshmark. I still have quite the collection, and would be more than happy to see them go to an actual Clayden Foundation !
Poshmark won't let me suggest any chatting options because they think we're doing something nefarious.
