'John Bates came onto the London Fashion scene like a bolt of blue
light, trailing sparks of excitement, designing the shortest
skirts, the swiftest shapes, the surest colours. He had an
unswerving instinct for what was new, modern, cutting edge' - Marit
Allen. Throughout the 1960s and 70s, John Bates dominated the
British fashion scene with a unique brand of style and innovation.
No other designer had such a comprehensive influence on what the UK
wore. Diana Rigg wore his designs in "The Avengers", and the press
went wild.Cilla Black and Dusty Springfield sang in them; Jean
Shrimpton, Twiggy and Penelope Tree modelled; David Bailey, Terence
Donovan and Helmut Newton photographed. At every level, from shop
girl to pop star, debutante and banker's wife, his label Jean Varon
offered a must-have dress for a party, short or long, empire line
or mini. He gave fashion-conscious women the chance to wear dresses
featured extensively in the pages of "Vogue", "Harpers Bazaar", and
"Queen Magazine" and bridged the gap between High Street retailing
and couture like no other. Richard Lester's text is based on
detailed interviews with John Bates, covering his entire career in
fashion. In addition the book features contributions from Felicity
Green, Deidre McSharry, Brigid Keenan, Barbara Griggs, Sian
Phillips and other key figures from the fashion industry, cultural
scene and media of the time.
