2. MODEL GENTLEMAN In my teens, I spent long hours in the attic at home during the school holidays making models of people. I’m particularly proud of this one I created in the summer of 1968: Barbie’s boyfriend Ken, dressed up as a Knight of the Garter. The ostrich plumes come from the Privy Councillor hat of Sir Samuel Hoare [the late politician]. I stitched the robes myself. He must be the best dressed of all the Kens in the world. 3. RHAPSODY IN BLUE Hugo cherishes a model of Barbie's boyfriend Ken, created in 1968 (pictured) I campaigned in my teens for my late aunt Dame Joan Vickers when she became an MP – this is a portrait of her. On deciding to go into politics she asked Winston Churchill for his advice and he told her to wear a pretty hat.
