Overview
When Helen David first founded her fashion label, English Eccentrics, in the early 80s, she was living in a Brixton Squat and selling her designs from a market stall in Camden. By the mid-90s, she was dressing stars like Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, Prince, Helen Mirren and Helena Bonham-Carter. Then, at the turn of the millennium, during the height of her success, her brand unexpectedly collapsed. Twenty years later, her son - filmmaker Oliver David - investigates what happened. Looking through her life's work, he traces her creative journey, through meteoric success and devastating failure, and discovers how she reinvented herself after losing everything.
