Great 1970 Biba video image credit https://pixabay.com/en/woman-disk-music-1970-girl-disco-2012260/ Interesting insights into the Biba way of design and sales in this film clip. Fascinating interview with Barbara Hulanicki. Wish I’d kept the Biba mail order catalogue I sent for in 1969! Thanks for reading my blog today.
Thanks for posting these. Such a wonderful era for fashion and music. Would love to het hold of a Biba catalogue or an ad or two.
Me too! I’ve got a a copy of Welcome to Big Biba published in 2006 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Welcome-Big-Biba-Inside-Beautiful/dp/1851496645 but the mail order catalogue I had in the sixties was thrown away long ago. How stupid was that??!!!
Good you have that one. I read they made several relaunches of the line. Re throwing away stuff – I also got rid of lots of catalogues back in the day, little realising how useful they’d be now. Oh well π
Oh, Cathy! Wish Iβd kept all the clothes that I bought from that shop!!!
Hope someone, somewhere has still got them!
