Prue Leith is known for both her vibrant style and personality, and the way she speaks so candidly about her personal life.
The star has recently shared intimate details of her 13-year affair with her first husband, Rayne Kruger, and also spoken openly about using testosterone gel to maintain intimacy in later life with her second husband, John Playfair.
Prue has also recently opened up about her sense of style during an appearance on Begin Again with Davina McCall.
During the segment, Davina revealed that as soon as she hit menopause she felt “invisible.”
“So many women say that,” agreed Prue, who also pointed out that as many women often begin dampening down the vibrancy of their clothes at the same time.
For that reason, Prue is refusing to become invisible and makes a point of wanting to be seen. “It’s so crazy,” she says, continuing, “some women say, ‘I used to wear red, I love red, but I’ve turned 50 and now wouldn’t dream of it.'”
Prue also continues to wear colour because “Older women need colour more than young girls, we need a bit of help.”
“Black is a great colour,” she explains, adding, “it makes you look slim and elegant, but how about adding a big red rose? Or a big coloured scarf?”
She comments that while a lot of people choose to wear black, seeing a person in a sea of black wearing some colour changes the whole landscape. “It can look like a picture, like Constable,” she says.
