Twiggy is 75: For the sake of being a Supermodel

For a long time, Lesley Lawson, who went by the names Twiggy, was called the mother of all supermodels. On September 19, 2024, it will be 75 years ago and I think I’ll get the chance to see the supermodels of my life. Planted how the British British population dies – her various careers owe her film series Zufall.

Unerwartete Entdeckung in the Frisör-Salon

Die Zufall, which inspired its founding legend on the Kopf, began in January 1966 in the London city of Mayfair. The legend of the story is that you will be treated well by your friends during your stay with your “Twigs” (“Zweiglein”) or “Twiggy” in the Friseur Salon “The House of Leonard” with your long, dark blonde hair washed and emptied. .

When you focus in the salons on the sly teenager with the handsome eyelashes and puppies who are made up, an unchanged picture has emerged – the irritations See how you can enjoy your samstäglichen party-entwickelt. Kaum was in his hair put in shape, with the prominent resident of the salons, Leonard Lewis (1938-2016), highly personal about his life and a new life, a new cut and a few hours of training.

For anyone who has watched Lesley Lawson on the “Table Manners with Jessie Ware” podcast for a few years, the war this idea sparks will spark everything else. “I was very happy with my hair and would like to see it later. And for a moment, I thought ‘Oh, I don’t know, but I would like to have it’. After all, I was so nervous and stood in this noble salon in Mayfair … That’s why I’m my niece ‘I will never forget it’ and have a nickname.”

Twiggy-Looks’ Birthday

Taking the next step, you can give the Star Coiffeur a radical change of type. In one of the blonder blondes showing their hairstyle and fitting of your iconic Pixie-Cut, the moment when the beauty of the salons had become so beautiful that they were no longer visible.

Before Leonard Lewis saw the fresh Lesley noch of the fashion photographers Barry Lategan (1935-2024), um with the new images, Vidal Sassoon (1928-2012) has inspired himself to the short haircut to be desired. The new Twiggy went a step further than the Schule.

The face of the year 1966

A couple who went through the history of the day, where Deirdre McSharry was no more, a fashion editor of the “Daily Express” to make the salons on the Twiggy portrait and the wall merksam. This is the phone number of one of the unintended employees, organizing a new photo shoot and bringing a large number of people. On February 23, 1966, the message was published in the “Daily Express” with photos in a new perspective, while Twiggy explained the “Faces of the 1966s”.

Then everything went so fast, as Lesley Lawson 2023 recalled in an interview with the “Daily Mail”: “In a war that is still in debt and half of three months I perform schon Pariser Kollektionen für Magazine with ‘Elle’ and ‘Vogue’ is a war that is verrückt in war 16 – and a green Sechzehnjährige.” Zudem has a height of only 168 Zentimetern, a weight of 41 kilograms and his androgynous appearance all meet model standards wider prochen.

“I must have been in the right place at the right time”, the supermodel is shown in the “mirror”. “For years my career had been a thinkable. But it was the Swinging Sixties, London was in the Umbruch. Fashion would get younger and younger, the designer would spread such young, new models”. If you are looking for a way to absolutely prevent this, it is all possible to use “extremist substances and very good genes”.

Twiggy becomes a world sensation

Inner half short time advanced Twiggy from a British model to a worldwide phenomenon. Diana Vreeland (1903-1989), the master chef of the American “Vogue”, found a fit and ebnete with his fashion shootings and titles of the other way.

After a promotional tour in the United States in March 1967, an end was made to a Pop Star and his most photographic experience in the second half of the world, exposed by Star photographers with Richard Avedon (1923-2004), Cecil Beaton (1904-1980) or Helmut Newton (1920-2004). I am a year busy with Twiggy with the puppy of the Barbie family, the Mattel after a living person gestaltete and eroberte who never has the title of the bedouin fashion magazine, under the children’s room.

Novice start as a player

After four years later, Twiggy was published in the year 1970 by the model-Geschäft, which heralded the war. With the iconic statement “Man can no longer be a leader”, his career as the first supermodel of the world and his new career in the world. Another example is that it is a matter of singing and acting.

Gleich for his first main role in Ken Russell’s musical comedy “The Boyfriend” (1971) appeared in 1972 two Golden Globes as best comedian and dwarf actress. Then you see more in films and in the film as a role model in the series, or in the cult comedy “Blues Brothers” (1980) or with guest performances in the US sitcom “Die Nanny”. 1983 went to his Broadway debut in the musical “My One and Only”.

In 2014 he appeared in the “Spiegel” as a follow-up to his Zweitkarriere als Schauspielerin: “Das Modeln ist mir passionrt, ich hatte mich ni darum beworben. Aber die Schauspielerei habe ich mir erarbeitet. Rückblickend war das der stolzeste Moment meiner Karriere: Als ich in 1983 for the Stück ‘My One and Only’ on Broadway on the Bühne stand, eight Shows pro Woche, quickly two years.

The Twiggy culture continues

Even on your 75th birthday, the cult seems to have found no end for a Twiggy for a long time. Whole in the community: I spent a year in London producing “Close Up – The Twiggy Musical” and the beginning, in the context of describing the comet mobs that brought songs from the Swinging Sixties to the stage. On October 18, 2024, one of the best things about friend Sadie Frost was the documentary film entitled “Twiggy” that hit the cinemas.

There is a big problem with the alternative Lesley Lawson, the heute with his Ehemann, the Schauspieler and the producers Leigh Lawson, who put Leben in London to work and earn a small amount of money, is not so. “Ich bin irgendwie stolz auf meine Falten”, says the supermodel who comes from the “Daily Mail”. Beauty operations or Botox can no longer damage.
