About Episode Four with Bethany Rutter

Lauren Godfrey chats with author Bethany Rutter about dressing fictional characters, the unavoidable influence of Trinny and Susannah and memorising Agatha Christie novels.

A podcaster herself, Bethany co-hosts the literary podcast What Page Are You On? with fellow writer Alice Slater. She has published 3 novels with a 4th and 5th coming out in 2024 and has been blogging about fashion for many years. She has used her platform to challenge the fashion industry on it’s shortcomings regarding inclusivity. She is never far from a bold pattern or a bright colour and is a prolific maker, often to be found crocheting or sculpting accessories and garments.

She has designed clothing collections for plus size fashion brand Navabi and even co-designed her own emerald green gem of a wedding dress!

Bethany has chosen patterns on garments by Navabi, Marimekko, Wray, Batsheva X Laura Ashley and Karen Mabon.
