Twiggy

Dubbed "The Face of 1966" by London's DAILY MIRROR, it was hard not to see her big-eyed, waifish look everywhere that year. TV, newspapers, print ads, commercials.

    Have to be honest, she never rung my bell. Seems curiously un-sexy. Whatever were they thinking?

    Twiggy reminds me of those big-eyed kid paintings from the '60's and '70's. http://tinyurl.com/bigeyedkids

    This was the 6os man! She was thin, androgynous, & mod. Anti-full figured fifties.

    I understood Twiggy didn't burst onto the American consciousness until '67.

    I'm sure that's true, Paul, but this blog looks to international happenings, too, not just US events and icons.
