This authentic colour photograph from 1969 shows the striking frontage of I Was Lord Kitchener’s Valet at 9 Carnaby Street, one of the most famous boutiques of the Swinging Sixties. Known for helping to popularise the military-inspired look of the period, the shop became closely associated with the flamboyant fashions worn by figures such as Jimi Hendrix and Mick Jagger. The scene features the boutique’s bold red and blue signage, a striped awning, and a wooden step-ladder standing on the pavement in front of the display window. Ornate lanterns marked “9 Carnaby St.” frame the entrance, while a man in a smart grey blazer and a young boy stand nearby, adding to the sense of everyday life on this world-famous Soho street. Available as a digital download, this image preserves an iconic piece of London fashion history and makes memorable vintage wall art.
