Models Of The Sixties

[purplelucrezia]

Pictures of Penelope Tree. Next to Twiggy, she was my favourite model of the 60's. This was written, and the photographs were found by the livejournal user named modastrid.

Could a mod please merge these into the official topic? Thanks!

i love the models of the sixties! the mod style is my favorite. i loved that marc jacobs show where all the models had blunt bangs and wore colored tights with minidresses.

 

[Yppe]

Yes, that Marc Jacobs collection was great! One of my favourite ever, but the rest of the world didn't think the same.

 

[armyofme]

yeah, i dont know why everybody didnt like it! i think it might be my favorite collection ever.

She worked as a model for a time before gaining recognition as an editor / stylist...

OK, thanks! It's always good to know something new about a sixties model for me She looks so cool.

İs Twiggy 5'4 or 5'6?

 

[Yppe]

In most sources, it says she is 5'6 (the same height as me )

I happened upon a pic of Grace Coddington during her modeling years, and since they're so hard to find:

hmm my favourite 60s model apart from twiggy is Patti Boyd!! her career was never really as big as twiggy or jean shrimpton's. she's more widely known as George Harrison's first wife and is now a photographer. anyone have any good pics of her? she's really pretty imo

 

[Fabulyss]

Patti Boyd rocks! I wanted to start a thread on her but I'll just put it here:

Some songs written for/about Ms. Boyd:
"Layla"
"Wonderful Tonight"
"Old Love" (post-divorce)
"Pretty Girl"
"Man in Love"
"Shape you're In"
"Pretty Blue Eyes"

thanks to 'A Patty Boyd Site'
