  • Dress in black and white- blazers, edwardian style shirts, black trousers, brogues/black pumps



  • Hats and umbrellas (optional)



  • Smoke (very optional)



  • Hang out round street corners



  • Have lots of attitude.



Anyone and everyone should try it, Teddy Boy or Teddy Girl!!

  6. I'm so excited to hear someone else knows what a Teddy is. In the USA, barely anyone of my friends knew what a Teddy was, so I had to explain it to them. (:
