Claudia Winkleman wears Scottish designer Judy R. Clark on The Celebrity Traitors

Award-winning Scottish fashion designer Judy R. Clark saw her work worn by Claudia Winkleman in Friday’s (9 October 2026) episode of The Celebrity Traitors, bringing Scottish fashion to one of the UK’s most talked-about television programmes.

The look featured pieces from Clark’s ready-to-wear Ebony collection – the Ebony Charcoal Knitted Tank and Ebony Puff Sleeve Knitted Jumper -showcasing her distinctive approach to knitwear, texture and contemporary silhouettes. 

Claudia will continue to wear Clark’s creations throughout the series, with audiences able to look out for further Judy R. Clark designs in future episodes.

Known for her distinctive approach to contemporary tailoring and craftsmanship, Clark joins a wardrobe that has become part of the Traitors phenomenon. 

Claudia’s fashion choices regularly generate headlines, trend features and “shop the look” coverage, attracting widespread attention from fashion and consumer media as well as viewers.

For the designer, the placement represents a significant moment for independent Scottish fashion, bringing her work to a mainstream television audience and further raising the profile of contemporary Scottish design.

Judy R. Clark said: “To see my work worn by Claudia feels like an iconic moment, working with her stylist Sinead McKeefry has been such a wonderful process! Claudia has a unique sense of style and a confidence in her fashion choices that people really, genuinely connect with.

“It’s also a privilege to be part of such an iconic television programme and I can’t wait for people to see what else she’ll be wearing.” 

Based in Edinburgh, Judy R. Clark is known for hand-tailored womenswear using Harris Tweed, Scottish lace and antique fabrics.

Named by British Vogue as a designer “to watch”, her work has previously been worn by Annie Lennox, Emeli Sandé, Freya Ridings, KT Tunstall and Courtney Love.

Her accolades include Designer of the Year at the Scottish Style Awards and the JOLOMO & PSYBT Award.
