A brand for the ‘disenchanted, misunderstood and rebellious’, BOY has been clothing the capital’s subcultures for over four decades. In 1976, Stephane Raynor opened BOY on King’s Road, and it quickly became the Mecca for the punk scene that was taking London by storm.
Amazingly, who is owner of Boy London? We recently had the opportunity to meet Stephane Raynor, founder of BOY London, in his Neukölln shop Ironic Gallery. We talked fashion, gentrification, and the evolution of punk since its inception in 1970’s London.
Subsequently, what happened to Boy London brand? Department store, Fenwick, have now withdrawn the brand from its position at the entrance to their store in Brent Cross Shopping Centre in north-west London. A spokeswoman for the store said: ‘Our Boy London line is no longer on the shop floor as we investigate the matter directly with the brand. ‘
Furthermore, where is Boy London from? The UK streetwear brand is experiencing a rebirth in China after finally winning its trademark battles last year. More than four decades after it first emerged from the depths of the UK punk scene, Boy London is witnessing a rebirth.
Moreover, who owns criminal damage clothing? Criminal Damage was launched by Sunny Aytan in East London back in 1991. The business, still operating today, is now owned by himself and his brothers. The pioneering streetwear brand was heavily influenced by its East London roots, with music culture and identity taking centre stage.
