Note: SEDITIONARIES refers to clothing designed by VIVIENNE WESTWOOD sometimes with MALCOLM MCLAREN and JAMIE REID. At the end of the 1970's VIVIENNE WESTWOOD licensed some of her designs from the SEX/Seditionaries period ( 1974 to 1980 ) to BOY. This is why you can find a SEDITIONARIES label on BOY clothing, or BOY labelled clothing designed by VIVIENNE WESTWOOD. BOY and BOY LONDON is a clothing label and store founded by Stephane Raynor in 1976. BOY was the punk clothing store to be found halfway down the King's Rd. Raynor briefly lent his hand to opening another famed store, PX, in 1978, where under his guidance the scene surrounding him and his enterprises (led by Visage's Steve Strange and DJ Rusty Egan) came to be known as the infamous Blitz Kids (the original club kids), before returning his full focus to BOY LONDON in the 1980's. The 'BOY' label was used in the 1970's and early 1980's. The word 'LONDON' was added to the store and clothing label in the early 1980's.
