EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1970s, we witness a bold fashion statement being made on Regent Street. Francoise Sysons, the model girl, fearlessly flaunts her Sherlock Holmes-style purple velvet knickerbocker suit. The true essence of this ensemble lies in its neckline - a daring plunge that continues all the way down to meet the waistline. As she strikes poses for photographers, an unexpected interruption occurs when a policeman advises Francoise to either button up or retreat indoors. Undeterred by authority, our courageous model chooses to return inside but not without purpose. Inside awaits a fashion show featuring garments inspired by "The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes" a film set to premiere at Leicester Square cinema later that week. Embracing her role as trendsetter and taking full advantage of this opportunity, Francoise takes yet another plunge - this time into the world of high-fashion catwalks. This December 1970 moment captured by Mirrorpix showcases not only an iconic outfit but also reflects the spirit of rebellion and individuality prevalent during that era. It serves as a reminder that fashion is more than just clothing; it is an expression of one's personality and willingness to challenge societal norms. As we admire Francoise Syson's confidence in donning such an audacious attire, let us be inspired to embrace our own unique style choices with equal fearlessness and conviction.
