oh no... I actually thought, thank God I live in Sweden, people don´t know who Edie was, and they won´t make her a styleicon here... but... I am reading the new ELLE, and there´s a short article called "Optical illusion".
There´s pics of Twiggy, Sienna as Edie, various models with 60´s make-up, and the picture of Andy lighting Edie´s cigarette.
The text to the picture says: "Andy Warhol leading the muse Edie Sedgwick in to smokingabuse" (????)
the article says:
Optical illusion
Create an illusion in the same way as in the sixties.
OP, Mary Quant, Courréges geometrical patters, black and white - the swinging sixties are everwhere. Those of us who weren´t even thought of while the mods were riding their vespas in their short skirts and gogoboots, have the chance now.
This autumns styleicon is Edie Sedgwick, the princess of pop-art and one of Warhol´s muses. Sienna Miller is playing her with that honour this autumn on the white screen in Factory Girl.
Make-up wise, we are inspired by Twiggy, with her big eyes, impossibly long eye-lashes and light pink pout-mouth.
So that it will give the right retro feeling, and not passé, the eyeliner is lightly erased, the lips is shimmering, and the hair is shiny and non-toupéd.
I am sorry about my translation, I hope you understand it
