This exciting exhibition captures the atmosphere of the mid-1960s Chelsea boutique when changing attitudes inspired new ideas, freedom of expression and rebellion. A generation of radical young designers emerged catering to an elite group of artists, aristocrats and musicians – the Beautiful People.
