A big birthday looms, which has lead to contemplation and lots of reflection… Some time ago I read a Blondie interview; she mentioned that she still felt young inside her shell, but when she looks into the mirror, she sees a completely different person. Know the feeling?
Inspired by the current occasion of crowning a new old King (who waited all his life for this to happen), and that rather fabulous TV series ‘Pistols’ by Danny Boyle (OMG, that’s 46 years ago!!), some ideas popped into my head on how to express my personal confusion about the sense of age; where I was coming from and where I am right now.
For those of us who are old enough, remembering the Queen's silver jubilee in 1977, Vivienne Westwood's radical contribution to fashion and how the Sex Pistols overturned the music industry, let’s be assured that we made our stamp in history, and we will continue to do so!
Big thank you to Phil Philmar who made a massive contribution to the design and the existence of the picture above, and all of our photo shoot supporters who bought a t-shirt*, and especially to Richard Jackson for his genius topiary skills in Warwickshire.
If you have any thoughts on the topic (or the picture) drop me a line. In the meantime, GOD SAVE US ALL!
