The functionality and "cookie-cutter" style of the 1950s was a complete rejection for the "Teddy Boys" in England. This subculture of young to middle upper class men and women began a social movement and style reminiscent of the Edwardian period that slowly began to trickle up to the upper classes. Their Edwardian style can be seen in this photo taken in London during the 1950s, with the elongated and almost draped men's jackets, skinny ties and slim legged pants.
