Very beautiful Photozine. Homer Sykes opens his archives and shows us the years of the Blitz Club. London place frequented at the beginning of the Eighties by an uninhibited youth, populated especially by the students of the two important schools of art that are St Martins and Central School. It is also the story of a new trend that we will call The New Romantics. “By 1981 the verve had disappeared, the Blitz Club was just a short lived glorious bubble, where a fashion style had been born, then withered, but never forgotten; an inspiration for generations to follow“.
