The strange, illuminative true story of Tommy Nutter, the Savile Row tailor who changed the silhouette of men’s fashion—and his rock photographer brother, David, who captured it all on film.  From an early age, there was something different about Tommy and David Nutter. Growing up in an austere apartment above a café catering to truck drivers, both boys seemed destined to lead rather humble lives in post-war London—Tommy as a civil servant, David as a darkroom technician. Yet the strength of their imagination (plus a little help from their friends) transformed them instead into unlikely protagonists of a swinging cultural revolution.   In 1969, at the age of twenty-six, Tommy opened an unusual new boutique on the “golden mile” of bespoke tailoring, Savile Row. While shocking a haughty establishment resistant to change, “Nutters of Savile Row” became an immediate sensation among the young, rich, and beautiful, beguiling everyone from Bianca Jagger to the Beatles—who immortalized Tommy’s designs on the album cover of Abbey Road. Meanwhile, David’s innate talent with a camera vaulted him across the Atlantic to New York City, where he found himself in a parallel constellation of stars (Yoko Ono, Elton John) who enjoyed his dry wit almost as much as his photography.   House of Nutter tells the stunning true story of two gay men who influenced some of the most iconic styles and pop images of the twentieth century. Drawing on interviews with more than seventy people—and taking advantage of unparalleled access to never-before-seen pictures, letters, sketches, and diaries—journalist Lance Richardson presents a dual portrait of brothers improvising their way through five decades of extraordinary events, their personal struggles playing out against vivid backdrops of the Blitz, an obscenity trial, the birth of disco, and the devastation of the AIDS crisis.    A propulsive, deftly plotted narrative filled with surprising details and near-operatic twists, House of Nutter takes readers on a wild ride into the minds and times of two brilliant dreamers.

I think it's easy to forget the toll that the AIDS epidemic took on our creative communities from 1980 til the mid-1990's when medical "cocktails" helped turn the fatal disease into a chronic one. Author Lance Richardson reminds us of that toll in his biography of Tommy Nutter, "The House of Nutter: The Rebel Tailor of Savile Row." The bio, which centers on Tommy, also features his older brother, David, who was a noted photographer and management aide to many prominent rock musicians.The Nutter brothers were born before and during WW2 of lower middle-class British parents. They came of age in the 1950's and 60's and both fastened on to the burgeoning style scene in London. Tommy went to work for a bespoke tailoring shop on Savile Row and soon shook things up with his - for the time - avant garde designs of how the new, the mod man, should look. He opened his own shop, selling his own designs, but Tommy Nutter was more a designer than a businessman. David, meanwhile. was finding his way as a photographer in London and New York. They were both in the mix at fashionable parties and the club scene. Both men were gay and dabbled in drugs.As the years went by, both men were successful - David as much as he wanted to be - and lived interesting lives. But when Tommy became HIV positive in the early 1990's, his life was cut short. He joined the thousands of creatives who lost their lives. Will we know what designs could have been designed, music been composed, books been written? Lance Richardson, in his book, takes a good look at the Nutter brothers - one dead, the other alive - and written an interesting book about two men who most of us were probably not acquainted with before reading the book.
