A rare pair of Mr Freedom wing-shoes, designed by Jim O`Connor and Pamela Mowtown, 1969, un-labelled, of blue and yellow leather with blue leather wings each with four metal eyelets, rubber soles, size 7, 26cm, 10in long, (2). Tommy Roberts opened Kleptomania in 1966, a boutique dealing in vintage and ethnic clothing. With his business partner Trevor Myles he opened Mr Freedom in 1969. They took over the premises of Hung On You in the King`s Rd before moving to a bigger space on Church St, Kensington in 1970. This world famous boutique specialised in groovy clothing such as scaled up children`s clothing, satin hot pants decorated with rainbow stripes or appliqued satin hearts and stars. Much of the clothing and footwear was unisex. The clothes were sold alongside furniture and decorations and became something of a London destination, attacting celebrities as diverse as Pablo Picasso and Mick Jagger. The over the top, pop-art inspired and outright kitsch clothing designs were the forerunners of glam rock which was to become part of mainstream pop-culture in the early 1970s with advocates such as Marc Bolan and Elton John. Indeed Elton John owned and wore an identical pair of these boots which are now part of the Victoria & Albert Museum collection.
