Susannah Constantine - Biography

In a nutshell

We know you're wondering who this posh-sounding person is. And we did too, until we wrote the profile of Trinny Woodall, and we discovered that together they form the duo now commonly known as Trinny & Susannah.

Susannah was born in London to a wealthy family who had history in the property and shipping sectors. After some years In private education (I bet she has some stories to tell...) she ended up dating another rich person called David Viscount Linley. In fact, it's at one of his parties that she was introduced to Trinny, and fashion hell was born.

Her 'understanding' of fashion comes from her time working for people such as Patrick Cox, Alistair Blair and John Galliano ? she ended up writing about fashion for The Daily Telegraph.

Trinny and Susannah started a fashion website in the dot-com boom called Ready2Shop (see the cool and innovative use of the number 2 there?) which eventually went bust and threatened to end their friendship. But it didn't, as we now know after watching their seven hundred different television shows.

Please check Trinny's profile for a ever-so-slightly-more-detailed set of information but, in a nutshell, the pair then went on to present some stuff on Richard & Judy's show (you mean to tell us this is all their fault?!) which led to an offer of their own show on the BBC, which they did for a while before deciding that they were big and popular enough to 'jump ship' to ITV where they are suddenly not-so-popular and they keep churning out shows that nobody is especially interested in.

But if that wasn't enough they're releasing books left, right and centre and appearing in adverts for some shopping website or something.
