Published 2 August 2010

Brighton's tailor to the stars, Gresham Blake, switched his designer clothes for a gown and mortar board at graduation at the Dome to fulfil a ten-year dream.

The man who has clothed the likes of Steve Coogan, Ray Winstone and Davina McCall, didn't attend his own graduation ceremony after gaining a fashion and business degree at the university a decade ago but stayed in touch with the institution and attended this week's presentations.

He always wanted to see himself in a graduation outfit and the university obliged for a photo shoot with his wife Fal.
