FASHION: Paris 1970, Willy van Rooy, True Style


LOVE. THIS. PHOTO. Paris, 1970. I cannot remember where I found this photo but it has been one of my all time favorites since I saw it last year. Just wanted to share it. Is this not the most stylish woman? And an extension of her style...her son! Amazing. ♥

UPDATE: I just realized where I found this photo! Of course! It's from The Sartorialist, my all-time favorite fashion blogger, along with my other favorite, his girlfriend, Garance Dore. They are both extremely talented and keep it classy. Scott, of The Sartorialist, is launching a VINTAGE PHOTO CONTEST, which is what sparked my realization of the origins of the above photo. I hope we get to see lots of vintage photo submissions! Can't wait! ♥

UPDATE: This is Willy van Rooy, a famous 1960's model, with her son. It was submitted to a Vintage Photo Contest to The Sartorialist and published on the site on May 22, 2010.

UPDATE: See website, http://willyvanrooy.com/. Just amazing!
