The New Gypsies

Photographs by Iain McKell. The New Gypsies documents the lives, communities and dress of Britain's new Romani traveller culture — a counterculture of freedom, movement and extraordinary self-fashioning.

McKell's intimate photographs reveal a world of colour, ritual and creativity at the margins of mainstream society, celebrating the sartorial ingenuity and expressive dress cultures of communities who live outside convention.
