EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1966, features Wendy Cook (née Snowden), the first wife of the legendary British comedian Peter Cook. The couple tied the knot in 1963 but ended their marriage in 1970. In this image, Wendy is elegantly dressed for an evening out, donning a stunning kingfisher blue wild silk long evening coat over a full-length evening dress in complementary shades of blue and purple. The coat, designed by Wendy herself, is a true masterpiece of 1960s fashion, with its lamé hat adding an extra touch of glamour and sophistication. The use of wild silk and lamé fabric, popular during the swinging sixties, exudes an air of opulence and luxury. This photograph, published in magazines such as Life, showcases the unique style and flair of Wendy Cook during this iconic era in London's social history. With her timeless outfit and captivating presence, Wendy continues to embody the essence of 1960s fashion and the spirit of the era.
