McKell's camera has captured Britain's diverse people in all their eccentric and theatrical glory. Featuring an interview with the photographer, this book traverses the full expanse of McKell's career, including images from his acclaimed collections, Fashion Forever and The New Gypsies and many never before published images. Whether in black and white or brilliant colour, the people of Great Britain have never seemed so great, glamorous, gaudy - and beautiful. Includes an essay by William Oliver.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49536989430033,"sku":"GOR005289282","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49548697075985,"sku":"GOR007334859","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3791347012.jpg?v=1751159324"},{"product_id":"new-girl-order-book-iain-mckell-9781910566480","title":"New Girl Order","description":"Photographer Iain McKell, well-known for identifying emerging cultural trends, befriended a tribe of young female artists and spent two years documenting their lives in and around a shared warehouse in Tottenham. His resulting photographs depict a hedonistic lifestyle of freedom and creativity co-created in an urban environment. Calling themselves 'the sisterhood', the characters in McKell's work form a fierce army of women with their own particular take on self-expression.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49542284804369,"sku":"GOR009777221","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49625596592401,"sku":"GOR013377959","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53406147936529,"sku":"GOR014909199","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1910566489.jpg?v=1750803865"},{"product_id":"new-gypsies-book-iain-mckell-9783791345192","title":"The New Gypsies","description":"Historically despised the new Gypsies are there by choice, not heritage. Unrelated to the Roma, the movement began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside. McKell followed these New Age Travellers to the West Country and over the years he watched them become a hybrid tribe - the new gypsies - present-day rural anarchists, living the subversive lifestyle in elaborately decorated horse-drawn caravans. Known as 'Horse-drawn', the new gypsies share a desire for sustainability, a love of self-reliance and a disdain for the trappings of contemporary life. For more than a decade McKell has focused his lens on travellers of all ages: parents, children, couples and loners. With sensitivity and honesty he captures a way of life that seems at once romantic, strange, beautiful and simple. The result is a deeply insightful portrayal of a culture that eschews the traditional creature comforts of urban life in favour of the simplicity and freedom of the natural world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49626502856977,"sku":"GOR005707280","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50004320551185,"sku":"CIN3791345192G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3791345192.jpg?v=1751317931"},{"product_id":"new-gypsies-book-iain-mckell-9783791349961","title":"New Gypsies","description":"Unrelated to the Roma, the new gypsies began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside.
