Description
The ultimate in street style photography: Anthony Webb's portraits capture the highly individual and expressive characters who populate the East End of London, one of the most creative and inspiring places in the world. Webb's full-colour shots - framed against raw, vibrant backdrops - portray hundreds of self-fashioned individuals who have demanded to be different. Animated by witty and wise graffiti found on local streets, as well as quotes from style and cultural icons including Vivienne Westwood, Malcolm McLaren and Alexander McQueen, this book encapsulates the anarchic avant-garde spirit of a new urban counter-culture.
