Swedish Navy Clothing is a clothing line set up by the society photographer Allan Warren
in 2001 in London. His inspiration for the line of clothing came about after taking photographs of a group of young Swedes
who had just joined the Royal Swedish Navy During the shoot whilst changing their outfits he noted the three Royal Swedish Crowns embroidered on their boxers. The combination of the clean cut Viking image and the immaculate underwear, inspired him to create a line of casual clothes.
In 2003 Warren held a photographic exhibition related to Swedish Navy Clothing. The exhibition was held at The Box on Seven Dials
in London in June.
