Theresa May dons her lucky Vivienne Westwood tartan trouser suit for her big Brexit speech

THERESA MAY wore her lucky Vivienne Westwood tartan trouser suit for her big Brexit speech today.

It marked the third time in the past year the PM has picked the £1,190 ‘go to’ outfit for a crunch appearance.

She donned the Black Watch Tartan two-piece to launch her Tory party leadership bid last June – a day which saw her two big rivals Boris Johnson and Michael Gove implode.

And she also picked the ‘Anglomania’ outfit in April last year during her one high profile intervention for the Remain campaign in the run-up to the Referendum.

The trouser suit has been doing the rounds since 2013, when as Home Secretary Mrs May turned heads at the Tory Party Conference in Manchester.

Just one month before, it was worn by supermodel Cara Delevingne at her 21st birthday party.

Earlier this year Ms Westwood said: “Do I mind if Theresa May wears my clothes? No, but I certainly don’t admire her for anything.

“I think she’s awful.”
