Dream a little dream

Michelle Phillips (b. 1944), one quarter of The Mamas & The Papas,was the undisputed princess of the fabled late '60s and early '70s LA music scene. Her exquisite face, elfin frame, and heady lifestyle made her the object of desire not just of her male fellow band members, but also Jack Nicholson, Warren Beatty and Dennis Hopper; her clothes, meanwhile, mirrored her extraordinarily glamourous lifestlye. Here, Handbag picks some of her best fashion moments.
