Biba

Fashion label best known in the early 1970s for moody, nostalgic clothes and accessories in shades of brown, plum, grey, and pink. It was established in 1964 by Polish-born fashion designer Barbara Hulanicki (1936– ) as a mail-order business; in 1973 it moved to the former premises of Derry and Toms, an art deco department store on Kensington High Street, London. The business closed in 1975.

A major retrospective exhibition was held in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 1993, coinciding with the revival of 1970s fashion.
