Impossibly beautiful editorial, even if it is touching on the rather unpleasant subject of narcissism. There are a few images from this which have been reproduced many times, but these others less so – so I thought I would give them a well-deserved airing here.

Photographed by Jeanloup Sieff. Styled by Caroline Baker. Make-up and nails by Biba.

Scanned by Miss Peelpants from Nova, March 1972

  1. This shoot is brilliant! I personally love the fourth picture (with the tunic and skirt). You always have great editorials here! xxx

  2. F.A.B. But of course these images spring from the imaginations if the inimitable Jeanloup Sieff and Caroline Baker, who in turn helped Terry Jones launch i-D as the style bible of the 1980s. I was privileged to work at Nova earlier when Molly Parkin reigned supreme. Must get round to scanning some of my file copies.
