Watched a doc the other day about James Slattery, aka the very famous and glamorous Candy Darling. The doc beautifully highlights the downtown New York scene in the mid-sixties and great fashion. She was the total glam girl who desired to become a famous actress. Her gorgeous figure and stunning looks attracted the likes of Andy Warhol and Tennessee Williams. Throughout the doc, you see Candy wearing exquisite gowns, plush furs, chic head scarves, theatrical outfits, feather boas and dramatic make-up. Her blonde hair and sense of style bare close resemblance to Marlene Dietrich. I LOVE the boho chic and fun psychedelic prints. A must see doc for all fashion enthusiasts!
