Until the stars fell through the cloudy trees onto the grass

Lovely cover, babydoll. Shame there is not HQ resource for Nico's modelling resume--she had such a face that stops you.

I have unearthed some great glamourous Nico photographs (from the mid 60's, which is my favorite Nico time period). Most of these shots belong in Paul Morrissey's 1966 catalogue.

(used for the Chelsea Girl)

(Epic Nico beauty <3)

(a similar shot is used for the CGs movie promos)

(a similar shot is used on the back of the VU record)

"Nico" in Muse

My pleasure. (Happy you like them.)

I stumbled on this upon a google:

Muse #20 magazine recreates 60s "It Girls" (Nico, Edie, etc.) with models of the day.

Oooh ive never seen this thread before. I adore this woman. She was amazing, singed great and was absolutely beautiful.

 

[PinkGoddess]

Oh wow, beautiful photos, Tarnished_Youth! I've always wondered how Nico was able to grow her hair so long and healthy-looking when it was so bleached out.

A new Terry Me Va ad!

And a Nico inspired shoot. I think it's old and may have been posted before but i can't remember...

I just watched the Sandpiper with Elizabeth Taylor from 1965 because Nico is an extra in it (she's about an hour into the movie). In the scene Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and Charles Bronson are talking and Nico is right behind Charles Bronson. My mac doesn't let me so screen caps while i'm watching a dvd so i had to take pictures with my phone so they're not very good but here they are.

lost in a sweet dream

The dirty blonde fringe with lightened ends is a look I haven't seen on Nico. I think she has the best hair style in the film, I, A Man. I love her visual overall, and her famous haircut, but she is prime in that feature.

She looks gorgeous in the fim caps! And seeing a new Terry ad is enjoyable. Thak you for the share, babydoll. The recreation shoot is new to me (great model pick, she reminds me of Nico a bit). I love the Chelsea Girls one with darkness and light. I don't like the odd facepaint parts though--they seem out of place & OOC.

This may be of interest, I bypassed the select screenshot during a DVD by taking full screencaps on my mac--I wonder if that would work for you, too.
