I just barely missed this one. This 1974 trouser suit by Biba was designed by Barbara Hulanicki and her husband. They started their business in 1963 as a mail order boutique. Unlike designers like Mary Quant, Biba catered to starving students and bohemian minded fashionistas alike. The success of their line allowed them to open a store in Kensington in 1964.
