Street Style: Bradley

Jan 28, 2011

Posted by Kevin Meredith

Our Street Style winner Bradley featured in this month's Brighton SOURCE magazine, Brighton's best music, arts and listings magazine.

It’s all very well raving on about the 80s and 90s, but what about the much-maligned 1970s? It’s not all kipper ties and Bay City Rollers tartan y’know. Bradley here is rocking a sort of late 70s crossover look – a slouchy-shouldered blue leather jacket hits the urban rake look, albeit one from The Sweeney. Add into that a gentlemanly gallery-owner’s silk scarf, a pair of Victorian spiv boots and a penny farthing necklace charm, and you’ve got the Thin White Duke’s dealer. A strong look, and no gold or neon in sight.

Scarf by Tie Rack
“It’s a Jungle Book scarf. My friends call me Mowgli, so I thought it was quite appropriate. It’s silk one side and wool on the other. I got it from a charity shop for a couple of quid.”

Pendant from ex-girlfriend
“It was a present – it’s a little penny farthing. I like small things, it’s very detailed. Penny farthings are cool.”

Shirt from Dirty Harry
“It’s a striped number – I got it last year. I like the 70s style of it.”

Leather jacket from Oxfam
“I got it about five years ago. It’s a bit different, a bit of a puffy sort of shape, I haven’t worn it for a while but it’s good to get it out again.”

Waistcoat from Top Man
“When I got it five years ago I thought it looked nice and old even though it was new. It fits great. It has an aged look that I like.”

Jeans by Levi’s
“They’re 501s – I got them in Scunthorpe of all towns. I normally wear tighter jeans though. Its nice to get out of tight jeans now and again.”Belt from Charity”It’s my favourite belt. I like the details. It’s nice and thick – I don’t like skinny belts.”

Boots from Aldo
“They might not look it but they’re pretty comfortable. They’re a great colour and they’ve worn in great. I’ve got a lot of shoes but these are my favourites.”
