Was busy other day-didn't get round to doing #Fashion #model #StyleIcon Mary Jane Russell. #BornthisDay July 10 1926
Household name #1950s you may not think you know her - but will know some her iconic images epitomizing elegance period by Irving Penn, Louise Dahl-Wolfe, etc
1/12

Some #MaryJaneRussell's #Vogue covers.
How did we get conned out of all this? Sigh. Idea of progress a farce when comes to fashion !
So beautiful.
