Rebel Style In The 50's

New advances in technology and in financial services, including credit cards, spurred the rise of materialism throughout America. Mass-produced clothing became a popular choice. In many instances, conformity prevailed as conservative attire was embraced by both men and women. However, individuality was adopted by popular artists of the time who developed their own manner of style that deviated from the norms of the day. Icons of popular culture such as Elvis Presley and James Dean emerged as ambassadors of cool, embracing fresh styles that helped redefine fashion.

Strictly Gonzo

Notorious, controversial, irreverent and brilliant. These words along with many others describe the extraordinary character of Hunter S. Thompson. Considered one of the best writers of 20th century America, he was respected for uniting his life and career in a way few have ever done before. Credited with creating a new form of documentation known as “Gonzo Journalism,” for many, Thompson’s most celebrated work came in 1971, when he published the drug induced autobiographical novel, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas. An author, a storyteller and an icon, Hunter S. Thompson lives on as a hero of counter-culture America.
