So, fashion icons. History apparently tells there are many and current tabloids tell us that every celebrity is a fashion icon. But then again history is biased and tabloids are full of yellow journalists who are actually failed writers without an iota of inspiration.
Jayne Mansfield, Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren (who made being Latin amazing), Ava Gardner (for the sensuous and glamorous evening gowns) and Katherine Hepburn (who made being androgynous very sexy, a mantle which no other celebrity has taken yet) should be noted as well. Ava and Elizabeth were the brunette icons of the 50s. Both women embodied elegance, however, Ava, more so than Liz favored more classical, sleek designs.
