John Stephen was a Savile Row tailor whose innovative work in men's fashion earned him the nickname "the King of Carnaby Street." The suit is an example of the mod style that originated on Carnaby Street in London, when that city was the center of men’s and women’s fashion in the mid-1960s to early 1970s.
