AJPT Fashion & Style Director, Leith Clark, sits down with her friend and collaborator, Lucy Boynton, to talk A Cruel Love: The Ruth Ellis Story—the tragic, true tale of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in England in 1955. They discuss Lucy’s titular role in the series, its exploration of injustice and sexism, and, of course, the art of dressing for press tours.

Lucy Boynton, styled here by Leith Clark, plays Ruth Ellis in A Cruel Love: The Ruth Ellis Story. “She achieved so much in such a painfully short life,” the actress shared.
