WorldsEnd Interviews Jordan Part1 Final 1080HD

A month ago today I went down to Seaford in Sussex to interview a very important lady from the early history of 430 Kings Road. Her name of course is Jordan.
Now breeding Burmese cats & working part time at a veterinary clinic it was great to see her again on a day off.
The last time we had met was at Malcolm McLaren’s funeral in 2010 but I had seen a lot more of her in the 10 years or so that she worked in the shop in the 70’s & early 80’s. You could not miss her! Walking down the Kings Road in fetish latex or in a see through skirt with no knickers, she was the perfect look to have working in the shop (I remember Vivienne telling me of one time when she had chased a shoplifter up the road in her high heels. She got the stuff back).
Extremely influential (her make up inspired David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust period for instance), in this part one of the interview she talks about how she heard of the shop, her moving to London & the flats she lived in, her adventures with latex & about Malcolm McLaren, his artistry & his funeral.
Thank you Jordan!
(part 2 to come soon)

Jordan will be dearly missed. Rest in peace girl...

I worked at Smile a few doors along from Vivienne’s shop. We use to do the hair for Vivienne’s fashion show’s, Ben & Joe were so delightful, so was Vivienne. Jordan is a legend x

A real treat, what a lovely pleasure this interview is, many thanks

[@joealexandra7185]

I hope that before she passed away Jordan had a chance to read all the wonderful things that John Waters had to say about her in his latest book, Mr. Know-It-All. He really admired Jordan.

[@deancooper7952]

What a wonderful lady!!,we shall miss her.

[@chaton20]

RIP lovely lady 😞❤️

I met her once in Seditionaires. I was wearing an Adam & The Antz t-shirt from the two nights at the Electric Ballroom. She said I was cool and my punk credentials went through the roof.
The pub she's being interviewed in is just up the road from where I live. I would have loved to have bumped into her again. R.I.P

[@Concrete_Orange655]

Jordan we miss you. You wonderful beautiful person.

[@TheLoupgarou79]

Great interview - absolutely loved Jordan as Amyl Nitrate in Jubilee!

[@trevorrandom]

Fantastic Jordan is a legend and a style icon I'm sure she's got loads more stories from the punk days and the 80's ☺

[@CoverButton]

I must say that is just a great relaxed interview. Great to hear how she started working at Worlds End shop and stories of where she lived around London. Great stuff and look forward to part 2

[@bealtainecottage]

Please make more of these videos Ben...great reflection on the time that was in it!

[@Micklonghope]

She was a special Lady...always so nice to me when I went in Sex and then Seditionaries. RiP

[@ilovesammy3657]

She’s lovely she nowadays reminds me of a tutor called Sandy that I had at college . Sandy was super cool too!

[@THE1668KID]

Hello Ben thanks for sharing these wonderful short documentaries.
I'm looking for a link to "Dressing for Pleasure" ... btw I worked for Barnzley and your brother at The Jago.

[@falica77]

That was great Ben. I want more!

[@AmbitionClinic]

Is a small world but Jordan filled a great deal of it. I was always terrified of her. Why. She’s lovely. Sorely missed.

[@onceawitkin]

excellent, looking forward to part 2.

[@mjh5437]

I wonder if that pink latex "SEX" sign which hung outsde the shop still exists anymore?...It would be worth tens of thousands now......Sid Vicious` red swastika t-shirt sold for nearly £40,000 at an auction at the Hard Rock Cafe last year!!

[@Jay-Vee]

Her make-up couldn't have inspired Bowie's Ziggy Stardust period because that period was in 71 - 72.

[@Wearenotreallyhere]

Enjoyed that, thanks Ben! I suspect that should Jordan ever commit her memoirs to the printed page she'd probably have to leave a fair bit out! Surprised you didn't ask about the chair throwing at Granada TV but she did answer that on the radio quite recently. I'm convinced the world we live in today has been altered to a large degree by the likes of Viv, Malcolm, Lydon, Jordan etc etc.... though you still rarely ever hear punk on the radio, so some things don't change do they??!

[@billymink]

Jordan one of the bravest most adventurous women to have ever walked the Kings Road

[@richardfox2102]

Defying gravity by Jordan

[@johnwright2911]

Part 2 Part 2!!! So great!

[@filipematias5127]

Milady Jordan Moonie: punk girl icon legend! 💜

[@VanielDeeform]

She mentions Maidenhead, that's where I went to school! Small world

[@mjh5437]

How exciting.........Not.

[@kieronmoore614]

Great stuff from Jordan x

[@jalijali8448]

Love her!

[@catflowerlove735]

Why did punk go away for? I didn’t get to witness and I’m jealous lol! I’m an oldie but not that old. I wish I was.

The only person you see dressing like her these days would probably be Lady GaGa.
