vintage vogue

I have found a literal treasure trove in 'youthquakers' blog.  Full of issues of the vogue spanning the past decades I could get lost for hours on this site.
I have copied a couple of favourites from early 70s editions of US and French Vogue below...



From 15th April 1972 - US Vogue  with  Sofia Loren on the cover, an interior moment 'The new Roman way'. Loving the earth tone colour wheel in motion!


March 1971 - Paris Vogue has a sparkle-eyed Audrey Hepburn on the cover, with some black and white gems of Viviane and Margrit Ramme by Helmut Newton.









 as well as a shoot of audrey at home!











It is amazing to consider how far fashion has come in the last 30-40 years, how style has changed and morphed through time and context, and yet how things that are truly beautiful can be maintained as inspiration through the ages.

I love those women. Did you know that Sofia Loren used to put a little piece of sticky tape between her eyebrows when she was between filming on set, so that her skin would pinch whenever she frowned and that would be her reminder that she shouldn't frown so much!
