Sloane Rangers
Молодёжь, представители высшего класса, чаще девушки, которые носят обычную, но дорогую одежду в «деревенском» стиле и которые живут в окрестностях Sloane Square (Слоун-Сквер) или Кенсингтона в Лондоне. Выражение Sloane Ranger придумал Питер Йорк, автор книги 'Style Wear' (1982). Имеется в виду the Lone Ranger (Одинокий Ковбой), герой ряда очень популярных американских книг и фильмов, появившихся в 1930-х гг.
