Edie Sedgwick

In the spirit of all things Sixties, I decided to share my personal style obsession: Edie Sedgwick. This troubled society darling (and the first real 'It Girl') was Andy Warhol's muse and they spend time together at his Factory. Edie's style embodies all things mod and she worked a leotard and tights like no one else. I love the way she mixed massive, chunky earrings with plain outfits and how she worked headscarfs (something I am going to go and try now!). Most of all, Edie's freespirited nature shines through every photograph taken of her - something money cannot buy.

Some of the photographs are a bit disturbing (she looks quite dangerously thin), please remember that although she is undeniably a style icon, she was also hugely addicted to Speed and there is absolutely nothing glamorous about that.
