Bright Young Things
About “Bright Young Things”:
The Bright Young Things, or Bright Young People, was a group of bohemian young aristocrats and socialites in London during the 1920s. The name was given to them by the tabloid press. They threw flamboyant fancy dress parties, went on elaborate treasure hunts through nighttime London, and some drank heavily or used illicit drugs — all of which was enthusiastically covered by journalists such as Charles Graves and Tom Driberg.
