anonymous asked:
Gia Carangi?..
Gia Marie Carangi (January 29, 1960 – November 18, 1986) was considered by some to be the first supermodel. She squandered the majority of her modeling earnings on drugs. After treatment, she got a job in a clothing store, which she eventually quit. She later found employment as a checkout clerk and then worked in the cafeteria of a nursing home. By late 1985, she had begun using drugs again. Carangi died of AIDS-related complications on November 18, 1986, at the age of 26, becoming one of the first famous women to die of the disease.
French yé-yé singer and icon of sixties pop music, France Gall, has passed away at the age of 70 from cancer. Gall was our first glimpse into the beauty of the women and fashion of the 1960's. With her doll-like features and off-kilter innocence (showcased through often bizarre compositions by Serge Gainsbourg), we were immediately hooked. Our blog wouldn't exist today without that early spark of foreign mystery and intrigue that came from the bubble-gum princess. You will be missed.
