Random Ossies in Adverts: Part II

1970s, Make-up, ossie clark, Random Ossies in Adverts, Vintage Adverts

I think that printed dress turns up in several adverts spanning several years. I’m assuming one photographer or stylist had the dress and just plonked every model in it when they needed a ‘floaty’ look. I shall scan further examples in when I can!

The Effect is Shattering

19 magazine, 1970s, celia birtwell, Inspirational Images, ossie clark, smirnoff, Uncategorized, Vintage Adverts

Scanned by Miss Peelpants from 19 Magazine, October 1974 Combining two of my favourite blog threads, this is yet another in the series of eccentric Smirnoff adverts but is also a clear example of Random Ossies in Adverts.

Unseamly tights

1970s, Barbara Miller, Inspirational Images, ossie clark, pretty polly, Random Ossies in Adverts, Vintage Adverts

Another in my irregular series of random Ossie Clark sightings in adverts. This time a wrap around Cuddly dress, made from a crinkle pleated crepe with satin trim. I think the model is Barbara Miller. Scanned from Cosmopolitan, March 1975.
