IAIN McKELL CLUBBERS PHOTO ARCHIVE

If you remember the days of falling out of Taboo or the Blitz club in the early hours of the morning and standing around Trafalgar Square waiting for a night bus home, then, as they say, you probably weren’t there. In truth, those heady days of London clubbing are likely to be a distant memory, buried in a haze of snakebite and amphetamines. But a new exhibition by photographer lain McKell will bring it all back. 2 Tone/Clubbers/New Age 1980-1986 (Story, 4 Wilkes Street, El) captures the fashions, characters — including the legendary Leigh Bowery, and seediness of the New Romantic club scene. Did we really dress like that?  -   www.iainmckell.com/ - IAIN McKELL  MENU
