She is so lovely and unpretentious, as she was when she was 17. One of the reasons she was well loved. She always remembers everyone's name.

Twiggy's got so much life. You can tell her mind is moving at 1000mph !

[@johoheneenflesmetrum]

I'm glad you kept in some colour footage to show her jacket. Fabulous interview allround

[@jojoross9864]

I love you Mr Knight. I can’t thank you enough for what you’ve done for the Culture, past & present. I’ve jus excepted my obsession. 💯🙏🏾✊🏾❤️

Great stuff!

Don’t step on the paper that comment is priceless!

Twiggy who unknowingly caused so much fat shaming for girls. I remember my friends eating and then vomiting it up so they should be skinny. I am 70 now and still remember being made fun of as being fat and only weighing 112 and 5’ 7 “. She was nice but society took a hard look at women and girls

Очень нравится Твиги 😊 Вот что значит настоящая модель - даже в таком возрасте выглядит красиво!

Hello there. Twiggy has been a icon to me for years (but I kept it quiet) and her Initial haircut, the famous one with the perfect cut and lined side swipe to her right is amazing. What I have been looking for, but never found, is what did it look like on the left hand side and the back. I am determined to get this haircut, or as close as I can. I'm pretty useless at researching, but have done as much as I can. If anyone knows or has pictures of it, or know where I can find it please let me know. I was born in 1959 so you might understand my reasons. Cheers.

Hi Paul, I STILL LOVE THAT CUT AND PREFER TWIGS WITH IT. I wish she'd cut her hair, she's so pretty and perky and youthful, she'd look divine in a pixie.

[@pauldufour3072]

@@MSYNGWIE12 Thank you for replying to me. It does mean so much to me. I have finally made an attempt to recreate her hairstyle on myself. So far so good, a little more time for my hair to get to the length she had and I'll be there. Hooray.

[@pauldufour3072]

@Savannah Hoskins Thank you for that, I am getting there bit by bit, at 62 my hair isn't growing as fast as I would like!

[@ChristinaFromYoutube]

She looks 10 there So that "photographed me as a woman" does NOT telegraph at all.

[@MRCHRISTOPHERDECKER]

[@richardichard4237]

Cancer...? Chemo....? Or just going bald....?? Very Nosferatu....but maybe Mr Knight needs to now add a fedora or at least a beret to his standard Levis, white shirt and brogues....oh dear, dear me....
