Scarlett Cannon
Biography
Scarlett Cannon is a legendary British subcultural icon, muse, and model who rose to prominence as a central figure of the Blitz Kids movement in London during the early 1980s. Recognizable by her fierce aesthetic—most notably her severely shaved head often adorned with a large hand-painted black crucifix and striking makeup—she came to embody the era's defiant New Romantic style. Beyond serving as a premier face for Blitz Magazine and i-D Magazine, she was an active organizer within London's early queer club scene.
