Warhol Factory
Women and Other 1960's Divas and Their Unforgettable Style

| Pantihose were available in many
colors
and textures, including fishnets. Twiggy wore them. Edie Sedgwick wore
them.
Movie stars and drag queens wore them. The grid pattern pressed into the
soles
of the feet, causing discomfort, but this was the generation of women
who
accepted a certain amount of discomfort with their beauty; and saying
goodbye
to the garter belt and stockings was cause to celebrate.
Meanwhile,
another style of dressing was taking hold, as the grass-roots,
anti-establishment hippie culture
was gaining
momentum. |
