What's your favorite Jean Shrimpton photo? For me, it has to the photo David Bailey took from the March 1967 Vogue issue in which Shrimp is in a full Spanish goucho suit (shirt, scarf, jacket, pants-likely the baggy flare ones), has her hands on her rounded goucho hat (her hair was stuffed inside), and has a look like she was tripping on a chair. Last summer The Guardian did a interview of her and it was heartbreaking: She threw away her career to become a wife, mother, and working stiff.
@essi8757 Yes, it was not Jean. And to the naive people who think that pictures were not retouched before Photoshop, you're completely incorrect. At around 1:03 see Jean on left, before her nose was bobbed. Rare to see a photo of her like that.
I am a Straight Woman but my God did U see her leggs. So Pretty! It is nice to be Young. What a Gorgeous time & WORLD FAMOUS YARDLEY of London Make-Up Model as early as I think 1965. The Beatles were hot, Mary quant and the Fashion scene. The Nightlfe, Convertibles, Pot Parties, long hair, body paints, VWagon hehe BIG CARS, LOW GAS, LOW Population. It will never be like that again Sadly. Just look at her face is the reflection U see of a Quality time of Life. 2011 is a Zoo!!

I met Jean in 1972 or so. Most beautiful girl I'd ever seen. Still is.
