| Twiggy? |
I found this crazy mannequin head at a thrift store a while ago.
She has started to grow on me.
I think the maker must of had Twiggy in mind. Then I started researching Twiggy mannequins and discovered a whole world of Twiggy worship in mannequin form.
Even before Twiggy became an icon, Adel Rootstein, famous mannequin maker, chose her as the model to base a series of six different mannequins on. Twiggy was 14 years old in 1964 when Adel captured her elfish image in mannequin form.
Sadly, I may say bye-bye to my mannequin if the price is right, she is on the auction block this week.
If anyone out there may know something about her history please share.
