EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting image captures the essence of the 1960s, a decade marked by swinging London's vibrant fashion scene and the romantic allure of the bucolic countryside. The model, adorned in an Easter beret covered in lilac flowers, embodies the playful spirit of the era. The soft hue of the lilacs beautifully complements the rich tones of her make-up, created by the renowned cosmetics brand, Max Factor. The year was 1966, a time when fashion was breaking free from the constraints of tradition and embracing the avant-garde. This image, published in a leading magazine, showcases the trend of wearing floral headpieces as an alternative to the conventional hat. The beret, a staple of French rural culture, was given a fresh, modern twist with the addition of these delicate blooms. The model's expression exudes a sense of joy and freedom, reflecting the carefree attitude of the 1960s. The lilac flowers, symbolizing the arrival of spring, add an air of romance and beauty to the scene. This photograph, taken by the talented British photographer Peter Akehurst, is a testament to the historical significance of the 1960s and the enduring allure of fashion as a form of self-expression.
