Because the Runaways will never not be totally badass, and because it's easy to forget that leather jackets, ski sweaters and flared jeans once coexisted harmoniously, we were thrilled to learn that a photo show devoted to the Queens of Noise was on its way to New York. Legendary rock photographer Brad Elterman captured the band's godly theatrics (Lita Ford in knee-high silver platforms) and its teenage innocence (Joan Jett in a batting cage) at close range.
Check out a few more photos below. Details on the show, opening this Friday at Damon Dash's Poppington Gallery, here.
