EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Teddy Boys" takes us back to the vibrant subculture of the 1970s in Manchester. Captured on the 13th of April, 1975, by photographer Tom Buist, this image encapsulates a moment frozen in time. The Teddy Boys were known for their rebellious fashion choices and distinctive hairstyles. In this picture, we see them proudly sporting drape jackets with velvet trim collars and drainpipe trousers that hug their legs. The bolo ties add an extra touch of sophistication to their outfits while suede shoes with crepe soles complete the look. These young men exude confidence as they pose against a backdrop that reflects the urban landscape of Manchester. Their pockets flaps casually hang open, revealing a glimpse into their individuality and personal style. Beyond just fashion, this photograph captures a cultural movement that emerged from post-war Britain. The Teddy Boys represented rebellion against societal norms and embraced rock 'n' roll music as part of their identity. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history through Tom Buist's lens, we are transported back to an era where youth culture thrived amidst social change. This print serves as a reminder of how trends can shape generations and leave an indelible mark on our collective memory.
