Anarchic Adjustment was founded in 1986 by Nick Philip in Muswell Hill, England. Anarchic blossomed into an internationally known fashion company when Alan Brown became co-founder in 1989.[1] Alan had followed Nick's artistic additions to Freestylin' magazine and they eventually met at an American Freestyle Association contest where they formed their partnership and business plan for Anarchic.
Charles Uzzell Edwards joined Anarchic in 1990 designing most Anarchic clothing pieces and was a major factor in the popularity of Anarchic fashion.
Anarchic Adjustment opened three fashion shops in Japan. One in Tokyo in 1994, in the LaForet Plaza in Harajuku, Tokyo and another shop in Tokyo west of Ebisu Station and a third store in the American Village in Osaka inside the American Village Parco Store. Alan Brown, along with Joi Ito were responsible for founding the Anarchic stores in Japan.[citation needed][2]
Hiroshi Fujiwara, DJ, Mixmaster Morris, Towa Tei of Dee-lite, and Timothy Leary were early adopters of Anarchic Adjustment fashion. Hiroshi[3] featured "Anarchic" in his Fujiwara Adjustment section of Cutie Magazine and Timothy Leary wore "Anarchic" whenever he could.
