American Vogue October 15th 1966 : Jean Shrimpton by Richard Avedon
This magazine shows the other side of the 60s....compared to the 1967 issue with Twiggy. That issue was romantic, whereas this is hedonistic heathen Verushka's issue. Just all hail Diana Vreeland....obviously....

OMG, F-A-S-C-I-N-A-T-I-N-G IMO Avedon is the greatest fashion photographer
I wonder why he stopped to do outdoor editorials, they were so beautiful
Yeah....makes you wonder if this is the way people will look at the 2008 issues of American Vogue. Treasures....or not? Few of the mags from the 60s and 70s seem like pure trash....is it the time or is it something else....will the current mags age well?
Nudity in Vogue! Something that many would consider extraordinary today actually took place in the 60s. I agree that this issue has aged well and wonder if the same will happen to the Vogues of today? What will people 20 years from now will think of the endless Jennifers, Nicoles, Keiras, Siennas to name but a few? What will modern day editorials look like to them and also to us, who every month so infuriatingly discuss every little detail of US Vogue?
