has gloss | eng: The Bromley Contingent is a label invented by journalist Caroline Coon about a group of followers and fans of the Sex Pistols. They owed their name to Bromley, a suburb of London, in the county of Kent, where some of them lived. They helped popularize the fashion of the early UK punk movement. Most of them were ex-fans of David Bowie. Up the end of 1976, very few young people were dressed in an excentric way in London. |
