It was Kitty’s 8th birthday yesterday (my house is basically two thirds Harry Potter Lego now) and one of her present requests was ‘a catsuit for dancing’. I remembered seeing Burnt Soul’s amazing creations on Instagram and duly bought an utterly understated (not really) rainbow holographic tie-dye foil, UV-reactive, reflective, glittery number for her. It really is a thing of wonder and is beautifully made and true to size – Kitty is tall and the age 9 is perfect on her with plenty of stretch. She put it on as soon as she unwrapped it and wore it for the rest of the day, (apart from to the beach as it was such a scorcher) and had to be persuaded to change for bed! She also said: ‘I wish Camp Bestival wasn’t cancelled so I could wear it every day there.’ (Damn you, 2020!) If rainbow’s not your thing, you’ll find animal-print, snakeskin, monochrome, pastel and sparkly designs, plus a variety of super-cool leggings. Not cheap, with leggings from £21 and catsuits from £60, but all handmade in the UK and guaranteed to be loved and worn again and again.
