Every shoot you have a chance to bring your own influence to. As I did here in the story for Harpers Bazaar early seventies. The hood on the head and the brooch was my idea. They wanted it a completely different way, on the dress. I took it in my hand and felt as if I was holding a real star in my hand and that i was the vast night sky in the center of the Galaxy. So there you go…fashion is not just fashion. I also did the make up here, working with lines and highlights. I was a perfectionist when it came to make-up, the base and the shadows. Painting my face was like painting a portrait, which it also was of course. I liked this star! The dreams it inspired me to. The journey through the Universe. I like the star journey more than my look here actually…
