BIBA was one of the most famous women's fashion stores of the 1960's and 1970's. Founded in London in 1964 by Barbara Hulanicki and her husband Stephen Fitz-Simon, it became famous worldwide by creating and selling their own collections with quality at affordable prices, and served as a center of fashion adviser, popularizing the mini skirt and clothes lines and colorful graphics and innovative psychedelics, much like the youth of the Swinging London of the 60's. Biba became the mecca of modern London, and place of pilgrimage for musicians such as The Rolling Stones, Twiggy, models and actresses such as Julie Christie, who could find, in addition to clothing, furniture, food and beauty products. With an Art Deco environment, Biba was considered "the most beautiful store in the world."
After several years without drawing clothes, Barbara Hulanicki, founder of the mythical store, returned to the fashion world and creates a mini collection for Topshop. The collaboration came about when an exhibition of illustrations of Hulanicki, one of the representatives of the British fashion chain, it proposed making a collection that "didn't look like Biba. The designer has taken the challenge with enthusiasm and the result of this collaboration is available from today on the Topshop website - http://topshop.com .
