Michael Thompson is a prestigious fashion photographer whose work is absolutely stunning! Myself, already being infatuated with the fashion world and beautiful images, I am captivated by these exquisite portrayals. I am still so in love with MT. These photos are from his current exhibition shown in the Hasted Hunt gallery. To see more of his artistic work click here.
It all started with the movie Factory girl... about the "it" girl of the 60's, Edie Sedgwick (and now i absolutely love Sienna Miller too)! I fell in love with everything from the fashion to the free spirited lifestyle Edie seemed to live. I know it was only a movie, but I was hooked! I also recently checked out the book "Wonderful Tonight" by Pattie Boyd, who was married to George Harrison from the Beatles, and later Eric Clapton another musician. She was also a high profile model who helped define the 60's. And then of course there is Twiggy. All fashion icons that i love. There is something about the 60's that truly captivates me. The music, the art, the fashion, the people, and the vibe i get. It was a revolution of freedom and all new creativity. People explored and discovered in the chic, yet hippie atmosphere.
