Chris Steele-Perkins - The Teds (1979)
The Teddy Boys were a flashily dressed, rebellious, and sometimes violent youth movement that originated in Britain in the '50s. The three-quarter-length Edwardian jacket with velvet collar, drainpipe trousers, and quiff became a focus of male fashion which still holds cult status today. The Teds combines image and text to tell their story--a fascinating tale spanning three decades. Chris Steele-Perkins is a member of the prestigious Magnum Photos. He has published eight books and exhibited them worldwide. His reportages have received high public acclaim and won several awards, including the Tom Hopkinson Prize for British Photojournalism, the Oscar Barnack Prize, the Robert Cappa Gold Medal, and a World Press Award.
