The title is from a song of the 1960s by The Kinks. The image is from a fashion photograph Hamilton found in a dustbin and kept for future use. It is a highly effective evocation of the 1960's style, and at the same time a visual metaphor for the concept of style itself and the modes of representation by which style is conveyed.
