Swinging London when adults behaved like children. They had fun but it was all very innocent and often silly.

It's good to see it wasn't all just the Hippy look and flares in 1969 and some sharp dressers still despite the horrors of the 1970s would become.

I remember those times and that hippy thing was really a USA thing, over here looking smart was the fashion.

Oh wow. Fashion snobs from England
