Subcultures, Key features of Teddy Boys

 
Capturing 10 key photos that were culture defining I will not lie was a little tough for this subculture, why? because there are too many to choose from. This was a time when men really did become fashion concious and trendy unlike some sorry kid today who catches his belt round his ankles.
Ive searched the web world wide and found theses 10 photos;
 
 
Johnny and the moonlighters, a performance in 1983. 
 
 
Elvis Rock'in n Roll'in, a teddy boy icon
 
 
Crazy cavan and the rhythm rockers, a rocknroll band
 
 
The Teddy Boy bouffant, a signature look for teds all over.
 
 
The stylish attire of teddys replicating edwardian dress.

 
The 2 key shoes defined by a teddy boy.
 
 
The Creep a distintive dance to the culture as industrial dance is to goths, why not read below and have a go...
