The term "Teddy Boys" originated in the UK during the 1950s, referring to a youth subculture known for its distinctive fashion and rebellious attitude. The name is believed to be derived from the Edwardian style of clothing they adopted, which included long jackets and draped trousers, reminiscent of the early 20th century. The "teddy" aspect is thought to be a playful nod to "Edward," linking the style to the Edwardian era. This group was characterized by their love for rock and roll music and a defiance against post-war societal norms.
