Nostalgic Trips






I watched Factory Girl earlier and was reminded off my love for Edie Sedgwick, not just as a style icon. In my eyes she was one of the most idiosyncratic women of the 60s, some many argue that was a result off the copious amounts of amphetamine but I like to think otherwise. Her style was so rebellious for her time, well at least for someone with a background as prestigious as hers, compare her style to the likes of Jackie O*, it just amazes me when you think how to people living the same America at the same time could dress like complete polar opposites. (Not that I don't appreciate the style of Jackie O). I imagine the majority of you reading this will have heard of Edie Sedgwick and Warhols' silver Factory, but, in case you haven't, or just fancy some mutual appreciation for this personified roman candle, here's a little clip of her dancing.
