EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured by Keystone Features in 1962, we are transported to a Teddy Boy convention in Zurich. The photograph showcases the rebellious spirit of the era as it focuses on a man with his back turned towards us, proudly displaying his unique fashion sense. Adorned in a studded denim jacket emblazoned with the words "Express Killers" he exudes an air of nonconformity and individuality. The image perfectly encapsulates the essence of the Teddy Boy subculture that emerged in post-war Britain. With their distinctive style influenced by Edwardian dandies, these young men sought to challenge societal norms through their flamboyant attire and defiant attitude. This particular Teddy Boy's choice of clothing serves as a bold statement against conformity, reflecting both his personal identity and rebellion against mainstream fashion. The monochromatic format adds depth to the composition, emphasizing every intricate detail from the studs on his jacket to the texture of his hair. It invites viewers to ponder upon this mysterious figure who stands at the forefront of counterculture movements. This print is not just an artistic representation but also a historical document that captures a moment frozen in time—a testament to youth culture's ability to push boundaries and redefine societal norms. As we gaze upon this enigmatic figure from behind, we can't help but wonder about his story—his dreams, aspirations, fears—and how he contributed to shaping our understanding of fashion and self-expression during one unforgettable evening at Zurich's
