EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A touch of Ascot was brought to Manchester" we are transported back in time to June 1963. The employees of Demmy betting shop on Oxford Road have embraced the spirit of elegance and sophistication, adorning themselves in authentic Ascot styles. As we gaze upon the image, it becomes clear that these individuals have not only come to work but also to make a statement. Their clothing choices exude confidence and individuality, showcasing their willingness to break away from conventional norms. The women radiate gracefulness in their beautifully tailored dresses, complemented by extravagant hats that add an air of mystery and allure. Notably, one employee stands out among the rest as she confidently dons a top hat - a symbol traditionally associated with men's fashion. Her bold choice challenges gender expectations and serves as a testament to her determination to be seen as an equal within this industry. This photograph captures more than just fashionable attire; it encapsulates a moment where ordinary working people dared to embrace extraordinary style. It reminds us that even amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life, there is always room for self-expression and creativity. Preserved by Eastwood through Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era where gambling shops were not merely places for placing bets but also stages for personal expression through unique costumes.
