A recent article l meant to post last week about BIBA's rebirth...Barbara H is not very Happy!!
l'm sorry if you cant read it clearly...its as clear as a bell on my pc....if you are interested in the actual copy..then l can email you the pics...
l'm sure you are familiar with the old story, that in the 60's many fashion designers sold their souls, even their own names...and most of their rights to be able to design. when they didnt meet their backers expectations, their name and company and worldwide rights were sold from beneath them. Bad advice or the lack of, seemingly isnt any reason to gripe in the harsh realities of the 21st century, with all the knowledge we have acquired through the hellish 80's and 90's....but it was very harsh out their then, young people were gobbled up and cast aside quite brutally by bigger fish.
the likes of carnaby street and the kings rd...had one of the highest turnover of shops in the 60s.......
It was a very naive time...and hindsight is a wonderfull thing.
and yes Biba did sell baked beans..l remember well...
