Model and mum-of-four Abbey Clancy talks us through her glitzy new F&F partywear edit and tells us what Christmas is like at her house

Abbey Clancy may be the last person you’d expect to see picking up a partywear outfit on her weekly Tesco shop, but the model is proud to be sharing her sense of style with regulars in the supermarket clothes aisles. In fact, as a brand ambassador, she’s just launched her fifth F&F collection, which aims to make high-end, party- perfect wardrobe essentials affordable for all.

Taking to the streets of Paris to model the edit, Abbey, 38, proves she’s still got star power nearly two decades on from her Britain’s Next Top Model debut as she exudes chic Parisian glamour.

Here, we catch up with Abbey, who is married to ex-footballer Peter Crouch, to find out what her must-haves are from the edit, what her go-to outfit combination is and what she thinks of the city of love.

Hi Abbey. What a lovely collection!

Thanks. We really focused on pieces that are versatile – for all party moments – and added a twist with our latest designs. We’ve made the colour palette timeless and complementary, to make sure everyone feels confident wearing it.
