Norma Jean, mais oui

Here are just a few of my favourite inspirations, all part of the whimsy and fantasy I was trying to achieve with Minxy Vintage. I think the word I’m looking for is drama, ladies.

Who are some of your favourite vintage gals? Please share.

Eighties lady one, Wendy James

Eighties lady two, the inimitable Anjelica Huston

Ms Bardot in her prime

I heart Edie

Jane & Serge forever

Clean lines Jackie

And her latterday incarnation, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy

Carrie, Carrie, Carrie

 

And the spirit of Miss Dior

    Dita von Teese! I had the pleasure of meeting her last year and she is just as impeccable in real life as she is on stage and in the magazines (she’s also quite lovely and down-to-earth, too).

    Twiggy- those peepers! And Bette Davis. Hm, maybe I have a fascination with nice eyes?
