Among their number were Steve Strange, Boy George and his friend Marilyn, Perri Lister, Princess Julia, Philip Sallon, Carl Teper and Martin Degville (later to be the frontman of Tony James' Sigue Sigue Sputnik). The club was known for its outrageous style of clothes and make-up for both sexes, while it was also a birth place of several pop groups. After beginning at Billy's nightclub in the late 1970s, the Blitz Kids had found themselves bored with the whole punk genre. Billy's had taken to having regular Roxy Music and David Bowie nights and, in an effort to find something new, the denizens took to wearing bizarre home-made costumes and clothing and excessive amounts of make-up, presenting a highly androgynous appearance. As the group moved on from Billy's to the more elitest "Blitz" club, this was widely considered to be the birth of the New Romantic movement. Soon after, Steve Strange and Boy George became famous in their own right with their musical outings Visage and Culture Club respectively, as did vocalist Marilyn. Carl Teper went on to become a distinguished British Judge. . ALEJANDRO GOCAST MENU |
