In Memoriam: pioneering scene-maker of early UK punk, a muse to Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren as well as filmmaker Derek Jarman, and the original one-woman Sex Pistol Jordan (née Pamela Rooke, 23 June 1955 - 3 April 2022) died on this day two years ago. If the 1970s London punk subculture had an “It girl”, it was Jordan. Her confrontational sense of style and intimidating demeanour made Jordan a natural employee selling kinky latex bondage wear at Westwood and McLaren’s outré SEX boutique on London’s King Road in 1975. As Jon Savage recalls in his definitive 1991 punk history England’s Dreaming, it was a perfect fit. “(Jordan) was a living advertisement for the new shop, having turned her own body into an art object.” I treasure my sole fleeting encounter with her in 2012 at the book launch party for Punk’s Dead by Simon Barker. Jordan was holding court, surrounded by admirers, in front of one of Barker’s portraits of her. I approached and she graciously autographed a postcard for me. To do it, Jordan turned me around and wrote it against my back, gripping my shoulder with her free hand – which melted my punk heart! Jordan was truly a woman and a half. Fun fact: a besotted John Waters admitted he used to keep a photo of Jordan pinned to the bulletin board above his writing desk for inspiration.

I know I frightened the living daylights out of most of the people who walked into Sex. Boy George was a frequent visitor and he’s said I was pretty intimidating. Adam Ant told me he saw me as the living epitome of his idea of a dominatrix. Why was I like that? It’s hard to describe. I felt my expressions should be in tune with what I was wearing – like a work of art. Jordan Mooney

What I imagine MJ looks like in Hobie’s universe. Her makeup is inspired by one our universe’s of the original punks, Jordan Mooney.
