Meet the designer who adds sparkle to taylorswift13's and eltonofficial's new music videos
Since he relocated his Any Older Iron boutique from New York’s Lower East Side to Nashville in 2014, the former metal scrapyard worker has forged some 15 years of styling bands in his native U.K. with a knack for good tailoring and an innovative use of sequins into a growing profile.
That was one reason why Bobbi Rich, the wardrobe and set stylist and art director for Elton John’s new video “ Love Me Again” with Taron Egerton, pulled some of Clancey’s sequined styles for director Kii Arens’ electrifying project that blends animation, graphic art and “Elton, historically, has been one of the most flashy performers out there. He had the best stagewear. We needed something that was going to pop enough on Elton’s caliber,” Rich said.
Inspired by punk rock and disco, the 50-year-old Clancey has no formal fashion training. A visit to a fabric store in Nashville led to the discovery of two-sided sequins that flipped from peacock green to matte black. His reaction was: “Oh my God, I’ve got to make a jacket out of those!” he recalled. “I sold it within a week. I took the money out of that and made three [more jackets]. I kept investing back into sequins.
