Thank you for a fine tribute! As a former retired NYC fashion illustrator in the late 1960s and 70s I remember Jean so well in the fashion mags and on the covers. I remember many of these photos! Baily went on to marry the beautiful iconic French actress Catherine Deneuve but they divorced after five years. Actually, one of the first super models was red haired American model Suzy Parker in the 1950s and 60s who modeled for Revlon and became a film actress as well and starred in the movie, "The Best of Everything". She died at age 70. Read that Shrimpton ran a B & B with her husband as well! She was right about the fashion world, very shallow and phony.Why I eventually left to marry, raise a family and became a floral designer and have my own art business and became a painter.

Thanks so much, Karine, for presenting the lovely Jean Shrimpton. She really had something besides just the physical beauty...I read somewhere, that she bought a B & B, and she has embraced all the stages of her life with no surgery. She really is a more than just a fashion model.. She is 8 yrs. Older than me, and I just adored her aesthetic, she set the standard of grace and class, & all the great photos still stands the test of time! I was exciting to be a teenager then.

The mini skirt, as well as women's pantsuits, caused a world-wide uproar. Women could not wear pantsuits to certain restaurants. We couldn't wear pants to work in certain industries. Mini skirts definitely were not allowed in the work place. Jean Shrimpton was probably the most beautiful woman in the world to me. Every time I saw an article about her I devoured it.

My mother, who was 40 in August 1965, was pregnant, wearing dresses, just like Shrimpton. She always made her own clothes, and no one even knew she was pregnant. In fact, the day my baby brother was born, the laundry man, who did my father's shirts, noticed the same thing I did, when I opened my eyes that morning, "no coffee smell". When I explained that she was in hospital, and had given birth, just a few hours, earlier, he got mad at me, and told me I should never lie, and discredit my mother like that, but I stood my ground, as I was far from a moron, even at 8. I'd already plotted exactly what I would dedicate my life to being, and have done it. My mother handed down her sense of style, although, at 40, and after having 6 children, over a 20-year period, she could still attract stares, in a way I was never comfortable with. My dear Ma, as I affectionately called her, was super talented with creating clothing that had women all thinking she was shopping at boutiques. She found this hysterically funny. When I was asked to model, at age 19, I did it, because of her excitement. I did it for her, not myself, as I'd made my choice , 11 years earlier, but I'm glad I did it, as she would be gone, months later.

Thank you so much for this one! She was slightly before my time, but all the beauty books that I grew up with featured pictures of her. My mother is from Europe and always talked about the beautiful Jean Shrimpton. I like about this Retrospective is the way you talk about her outlook, and who she was as a person rather than what she looked like, even though that was clearly an important part of her life. I think the reason she was so captivating is because she was interesting as well as beautiful. She photographed so exquisitely well because there was something behind her eyes.

Jean will likely not remember this. I was about 21 or 22 at the time (Jean and I are approximately the same age), and it is not terribly unusual to run into or pass celebs on the streets. It was the weekend and I decided to go into a museum. I forgot which one now, but it was just a spur of the moment thing. As I entered, there was Jean Shrimpton. I wasn't sure if it was really Jean, so I tentatively asked, "are you Jean Shrimpton?" The beautiful girl turned to me, eyes wide, and said "yes!" I was so stunned that I couldn't say much of anything. She was perhaps the most exquisite person I had ever seen before or since. I have seen many models and celebs, and they look nothing like their photos, or what you might see in film. Jean was that overused description of "luminous." Huge sapphire eyes, English rose skin without makeup, brown hair hanging straight. A light flowered summer dress just skimmed her long body. I might be crazy, but it looked like she was open to having a chat, but I was far too stunned to say any more and just muttered something I have since forgotten. But I have never forgotten her. Besides her obvious beauty, she radiates something indefinable and what is mostly lost in today's world. I have since read a quote from her: "Everything about modern life terrifies me." I agree lovely Jean, but we lived in the best time possible, even with all its twists and turns. I am glad I am not being born into this time.
