I'M THE FACE

Edie Sedgwick: troubled, rebellious, charming, talented & beautiful. A girl who got carried away, but still she had the ability (which not a lot of people have) to walk into a room and have all the attention on her. Andy could notice it in her within seconds of meeting her. Main look would be a black leotard, giant earrings, painted brows & painted eyes.

Pattie Boyd: innocent, gap toothed, pretty girl look. Probably can pull off any style. Typical 60's go-go girl. Main look would be little black dress, black mary-jane heels and a headband.

Marianne Faithfull: biker, rock chick, fur & leather. The main inspiration of mine. Innocent face yet apparently not innocent character. Influential style from her film Girl on a Motorcycle. Main look would be faux fur coat, leather trousers, big rings and messy hair, 'glam boheme'.

Jane Birkin: brunette with a bambi face & doe eyes. Ex girlfriend & muse of musical icon Serge Gainsbourg. Notice how in every picture it's pretty much the same facial expression - wide eyed as if in shock, but also innocence. Main look would be simplistic jewellery, simplistic hair and a white crochet dress with loafers and a straw satchel.

Brigitte Bardot: the sex symbol of the sixties. Famous for her versatile hair, wide eyes and gap toothed pout. Influential to alot of people these days such as Kate Moss, Sienna Miller, Lara Stone & Georiga May Jagger. Main look would be leopard print, black leather jacket, lip liner, eyeliner, and bouffant hair.

Twiggy: last but not least. A supermodel, one of the most influential & inspirational girls of all time. Everything about Twiggy is unique, or was at the time. Which is why she set a style and changed the way people looked at fashion & beauty. Main look would be heavily painted eyes, patent pumps, defined brows and a black & white Mary Quant dress.

These are all the women that highly influence my image. Inspirational all for different ways and truly iconic. Nothing about them was false, pretentious or put on and they were legends because they were themselves, not because they put on an act or cry for attention (minus Edie Sedgwick in certain circumstances perhaps), but still, Edie was famous and well liked because of the act and confidence she put on. They set the scene for many models, actresses & musicians today and I think someone who can inspire generations after them definitely deserves such a high status, and better still a place on this blog post. xo
