Logo for Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's Men of Fashion - Teddy Boys - Fashion for the Youthquake

Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen tells the story of dandyism and male peacockery through the ages. In the 1950s, working-class men set the fashion agenda for the first time when Teddy Boys aped and subverted the styles of their social superiors with the New Edwardian look.
