Mods Guide for London

Today I round round London's oxford street, regent street, saville row and around soho to find the best places to go get the "mod life style". 

Guess on Regent Street



As you can see this maniquin has a lovely tailored jacket, and to make it look casual its put with a plain white t-shirt and dark jeans. This look is an updated young trendy mod look for men.



Lanvin store mount street




Shorts a new vision of mod tailoring


Shoes smart but quirky again to make it young and fun


Slim leg tailored trousers, with smart trainers and a sports look jacket


This is the kind of coat a mod would wear because its tailored and smart, but without looking too much like work wear, and still looking casual especially when its teamed with this big side bag. The trousers are really slimmed legged as well.

Shirts on Saville Row



Vespers outside Ozwald Boating what more could you ask for!


Hoss Regent Street




Here we have a very 60’s shaped dress from Hoss


The new buttoned down collar shirt! The collar is a lot smaller and it has the illusion of being to different tops. (the shirt underneath and a t-shit on top.it is also teamed with a really smart pair of tailored shorts, again from Hoss.

Karen Millen just off Oxford street



Here in Karen Millian we can see strong colour blocking and pinafore dresses that resemble the 60’s mod girls very well.


As we can see in coast here they have a short little orange dress in the window, its quite a straight shape because it has no shaping in it.

Guess 2011 Advertisement Campaign




This advertising by guess is extremely 60’s , its got the new look of the teenager, there's a flirting as it’s the start of being more open about sex and the hair and make up are extremely mod!
The girl:
Big full hair
Very dark eyes
Her clothes are more of a 50’s swimsuit vibe though.
The boy:
Slick smart hair,
Waist coat
Looks like the top is a long sleeved t shirt that possible has buttons going down the front because the neck is slightly higher for one that doesn't



Mui Mui Advertisement Campaign

This is Mui Mui’s advertisement  autumn/winter 2010, her we can see short dresses that don’t look particularly fitted, then we have the patterned tight with the little shoes with a very small heal, verryyy mod!
