BOY and BOY LONDON is a clothing label and store founded by Stephane Raynor in 1976. BOY was the punk clothing store to be found halfway down the King's Rd. Raynor briefly lent his hand to opening another famed store, PX, in 1978, where under his guidance the scene surrounding him and his enterprises (led by Visage’s Steve Strange and DJ Rusty Egan) came to be known as the infamous ‘Blitz Kids’ (the original club kids), before returning his full focus to BOY LONDON in the 1980's. The 'BOY' label was used in the 1970's and early 1980's. The word 'LONDON' was added to the store and clothing label in the early 1980's.

(BOY HISTORY) Acme Attractions was a London clothing store on Kings Road, Chelsea, London, that in the early 1970s provided a place for many punk and reggae musicians and scenesters to hang out. Shop assistant and manager Don Letts described Acme Attraction as a place "where the interaction between the different factions became more important than selling merchandise, even though at that age it was a deadly combination". Acme Attractions was inspired by Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood's Fifties-inspired boutique Let it Rock (revamped in 1972 and renamed Too Fast To Live Too Young To Die), ironically Prior to conceiving BOY, Stephane had been selling 50s clothing to Malcolm Mclaren at his shop ‘Let it Rock’ before opening the his legendary style outlet ‘Acme Attractions’ - which counted punk DJ and filmmaker Don Letts,. In spring 1974, a radical change saw the shop become Sex: selling fetish wear and Westwood's innovative designs. Acme's owner, John Krivine, decided to venture into clothing with Steph Raynor.In 1974, Acme Attractions initially opened as a stall in the antiques market Antiquarius on the King's Road, Chelsea. While it was owned by Krivine and Raynor its public face was Don Letts who says that Acme was selling, "electric-blue zoot suits and jukeboxes, and pumping dub reggae all day long". Acme would actually have to move to the basement, after complaints about Don Letts's pounding dub reggae. By the mid 70s, Acme had quite a scene attracting the likes of The Clash, the Sex Pistols, Chrissie Hynde, Patti Smith, Deborah Harry, Boy George and Bob Marley. Letts remembers that "Marley ... come by because he knew he could get a good draw from the thriving black-market action that also went on in Acme." The scene created by the shop also led to the formation of Generation X, which launched the pop music career of Billy Idol. The Acme accountant, Andrew Czezowski, seeing the potential in the crowd the store attracted, started up The Roxy, the first punk-rock venue in London, so that people could go from the store and have some place to party. Letts was the first house DJ.

Chelsea, a band, formed in August 1976 and were originally managed by John Krivine and Steph Raynor, was in direct competition with Malcolm McLaren's SEX and Sex Pistols.
Seeing the success of punk and how a new market was created for punk related clothing and merchandise John Krevine and Steph Raynor closed Acme Attractions to create Boy London. While Don Letts opened the new store, he soon quit, "It was the bastard child of Acme, created to capitalize on the tabloid punk and although I opened and ran the joint it just weren't my speed. I quit to manage the Slits and headed off on the White Riot tour with The Clash."
Vivienne Westwood licensed designs to Boy, who issued them, some with alterations, over the next eight years. Mr Krivine sold the company in 1984.
