Some old men loved to be surrounded by beautiful women, one on each as they smiled for the camera, looking at these bellbottom trousers and platform boots they were not great style, Years ago my brothers and would visit Kensington market every week or so, we were often served by Freddie Mercury before he hit the big time with Queen. I once bought of nice looking pair of black platform boots from that this marketplace, and they looked great with my tight jeans, I requested the seller to stitch some white leather stars of different sides on those fine looking new pair of boots, he said this would look mad, I did not care, I was prepared to spend a few extra pounds on my new idea when returned I picked boots up the following week from the shoe man had changed his mind and said that this looks like something could catch on, less them 6 months later the pop and rock stars appearing on Top of the Pops were wearing my design on their platform boots, they had stolen my great idea and did not pay me a penny , Looking back I say that bellbottom trousers and platform boots were not the best of fashion
