EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1969, we witness the audacious spirit of Harry Fox, the self-proclaimed King of Carnaby Street. Standing proudly in front of his newly opened Lady Jane boutique, Harry's entrepreneurial ambitions were quickly met with an unexpected twist. Eager to draw attention to his establishment, he orchestrated a daring window display featuring six naked girls. As word spread like wildfire through the vibrant streets of Soho, curious crowds flocked to witness this unconventional spectacle. However, as fate would have it, not only did onlookers gather but also officers of the law swiftly arrived at the scene. The commotion caused by Harry's provocative exhibition led to his arrest for causing an obstruction. This moment captured on May 28th serves as a testament to both the rebellious fashion trends and societal norms that defined London in the swinging sixties. The photograph encapsulates a pivotal era when Carnaby Street was at its zenith as a hub for cutting-edge fashion and cultural revolution. It offers us a glimpse into an unforgettable chapter where individual expression collided with authority and sparked debates about freedom and morality. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this image transports us back in time—reminding us how one man's bold vision can simultaneously captivate hearts and challenge conventions within society's ever-evolving tapestry.
