EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant fashion scene of 1950s Manchester. The image captures a behind-the-scenes moment before the groundbreaking first male and female fashion show in the city. Two impeccably dressed male mannequins, Geoffery Bentley and Erid Howard, can be seen preparing themselves for their grand debut. The attention to detail is remarkable as Bentley delicately sprays Howard's hair with gloss, ensuring every strand is perfectly in place. Meanwhile, Howard focuses on enhancing his features by powdering his face flawlessly. Their synchronized movements and intense concentration reveal their dedication to creating an unforgettable runway experience. This photograph not only showcases the artistry involved in men's fashion during that era but also highlights the progressive nature of Manchester's fashion industry at the time. It serves as a testament to how far society has come in breaking gender norms within the realm of clothing and style. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but appreciate Mirrorpix's ability to capture such a significant moment in history. This image transports us back more than half a century ago when these two mannequins were pioneers paving the way for future generations of models and designers alike.
