It's October, the month that All Hallows' Eve falls under,
the night that long ago was created to celebrate Pagan harvest and honor
the dead. Naturally then, October has become the month for all things
dark, spooky and taboo. So here at Studio 1220, we are honoring black
this month, the true anti-color.
We also can't help but be
reminded of some fashion rebels of the 60's and 70's who looked like
they were born to wear black. These were all women that men described as
having a sense of magic surrounding them, luring men into their lives
and becoming muses of rock musicians, fashion designers and girls of the
past and present.
EDIE SEDGWICK
Edie Sedgwick was best known for her association with Andy Warhol and
his Factory. This
well-heeled American debutante became a symbol of Sixties style,
rebellion and freedom. She inspired Andy's art and captivated Bob Dylan who
was said to have written many songs about her. She loved to wear big
fur coats with black tights and made them look elegant and effortless.

MARIANNE FAITHFULL
Marianne Faithfull became a fixture in the wild social scene that was
dubbed, "Swinging London." Then a four-year relationship with Rolling
Stones frontman, Mick Jagger, in the mid Sixties
cemented her status as a true rock-n-roll muse. Marianne looked like
such a good girl, but would edge up her look with leather and jean
jackets.

STEVIE NICKS
Stevie Nicks is a true rock n' roll queen. She was the beautiful
bohemian woman best known as the female singer from the band
Fleetwood Mac in the mid 70's. Her style was always unique, she could
usually be seen in oversized clothes with flowing sleeves, wore mostly
black and some would say had a pagan/witchy way about the way she'd
dress. She wrote and sang in one of her most famous songs Rhiannon, "She
is like a cat in the dark and then she is the darkness, she rules her
life like a fine skylark and when the sky is starless." She was truly a
woman of mystery and intrigue, with an amazing voice and a sense of
style all her own.
