As the ever bubbly, passionate host Jane says: the clothes we wear are far more than just something practical like a work uniform. They are extension of ourselves, an outward expression of how we are feeling inside, yet also a constant source of anxiety writ by something we've all said in front of a full wardrobe: 'I've got nothing to wear!' 

Jane takes us into (a part of) her wardrobe, to talk about why it is that anxiety we feel about needing to 'fit in', to be seen to one of the team etc. results in the 'safe' wearing of black pants, conservative shirts and blouses and flat shoes. To be sure, Jane understands this having worked in the corporate sector, but she has created this show to share with the audience the fact that you have to wear what makes you happy. As she points out, when you are wearing something that is truly yourself, it is noticed by others: 'I love that dress'; 'I love that shirt'; they are the most amazing earrings'. Who doesn't like a compliment? 

As a very effective demonstration of the point, Jane invited three women severally from the audience to come up and pick anything from the wardrobe (inc. all accessories) and dress her like mannequin. It was notable that the women were all in 'office' wear or casual that could be considered 'safe' in that they did not stand out (I'm not being judgemental here, but descriptive). How delightful it was to see how much these women obviously enjoyed picking from Jane's striking rack of bright colours and bold patterns, combined with big, loud bangles, necklaces, headwear, scarves and so on. It was if we were witnessing a 'release' of something within them: 'I could never wear this, but I love it!' And of course, no matter what they picked, it all looked good as the 'oohs' from the audience affirmed. 

Therein lay the point: in your wardrobe is possibly everything you need to be you, but as Jane says, just try all sorts of combinations and you might be surprised at arriving at something that makes you feel... MORE you. Would the world be a bit better with big, bold colours and accessories worn (by men as well) on the streets? 

As the great Molly Meldrum once said: do yourself a favour and snap up the tickets to this intimate, joyful show and discover that one way to inner and outer happiness lies in your wardrobe.
