Great post! To me, "She's Not There" is the perfect homage to Twiggy in doll form. Love your presentation Ernesto...the pic of Twiggy holding her doll is great! Been feelin' a bit mod myself lately and seem to be drawn to the older Somers & Field fashions!
ReplyDeleteDear Bobby, thank you! I too love the photo found on Goggle - there she is playing with her Mattel doll. What a charmed life! Mod is cool - Somers and Field are beautiful fashions. Hope to see that collection!
