The Little Book Of Casuals - Football Fashion From The 1980s
The Little Book Of Casuals - Football Fashion From The 1980s by Scottie
For the first time, the story of the Casuals is told through the evolution of the all-important look - the ever-changing knitwear, designer labels & haircuts of the moment - which grabbed almost as much attention on the football terraces of the 1980s as the muddy, much abused match itself
Packed full of period detail, dry humour and superb illustrations, it's a rare pleasure to relive the glory years of the tribe that kicked off without a name - were you Scally, a Dresser or a Trendy? - through the eyes of a front-line fashionista who watched the whole thing unfold at the time.
Author Scottie was, and is, a regular football fan... who thought the 80s nurtured a shared, obsessive yearning to remain one step ahead of the terrace fashion curve. And every priceless priceless Lacoste, Fila and Armani designer clobber is now recalled fondly as a 30-yard cup final screamer.
The Little Book of Casuals elevates this generation of tasty working-class dandies' to the fascination level of the Teds, Mods and Skinheads, with whom they shared a heritage of swaggering exhibitionism.
