A Sea of Swinging Sixties Style: The Unforgettable Move of Biba to Kensington Church Street In the heart of London's swinging sixties, a highly publicised moving day unfolded as the iconic Biba boutique of Barbara Hulanicki prepared to relocate from its original Abingdon Road location to larger premises on Kensington Church Street. The move was an event in itself, attracting around 60 models and well-known sixties personalities to lend a hand. The scene was a bustle of activity as girls in vibrant Biba outfits hung out of the back of a lorry emblazoned with the Biba name, waving and smiling for the cameras. Among them was the striking Nicky Poulet, third from right, adding to the colourful spectacle. The move was a significant moment in the history of the Biba brand, which had quickly become synonymous with the youthful, carefree spirit of the sixties. Barbara Hulanicki's innovative designs had captured the imagination of a generation, and the move to larger premises was a testament to the growing popularity of the boutique. The day was a celebration not only of fashion and style but also of the vibrant, creative energy that defined the swinging sixties. The move to Kensington Church Street marked a new chapter in the story of Biba, one that would continue to shape the fashion landscape for years to come. This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of a bygone era, and a reminder of the enduring allure of the sixties and the iconic Biba boutique.
