Whos the dummy? Window shopping in Oxford Street, London. Circa 1960
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Oxford Street in London during the swinging sixties. The image captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing a group of elderly shoppers standing outside a high street shop window. Their expressions tell a story of shock and surprise as they gaze upon an impeccably dressed mannequin with its mouth agape, seemingly caught off guard by their presence. This comical interaction between generations highlights the stark contrast between traditional values and evolving fashion trends. The vibrant display of clothing on show reflects the style and flair that defined this era. As we peer into this snapshot from history, we are transported to an inner borough of London where retail therapy was not just about purchasing items but also about immersing oneself in the ever-changing world of fashion. The scene is reminiscent of a time when window shopping was not only an activity but also a form of entertainment for many. It serves as a reminder that even though times may change, certain aspects like human curiosity remain constant. This intriguing photograph invites us to reflect on our own relationship with fashion and how it has evolved over time. It sparks nostalgia for those who experienced this era firsthand while offering younger generations an insight into the dynamic spirit that once filled these iconic streets.
