OUGD501: 1960's research

This era provided a complete overhaul with a fresh doll face, petite and androgynous look. Models like Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton represent this thin ideal. Shift dresses, miniskirts and bug eye round sunglasses were all the rage. Amphetamines were popularly prescribed to women for weight loss along with the founding of Weight Watchers in 1963. I looked through my twiggy: a life in photographs for research, and pick out any images I want to have in my publication.
