Grey Matters fashion spread

It is a new year, and I've updated Glossy with a new look banner - which I'm quite happy with!

Back to this particular fashion spread however, with the legendary Richard Sharah (who was known for doing Steve Strange of Visage's make-up in the Fade to Grey video clip) doing his trademark make-up on the models (one of whom is none other than Collette!)

Dolly Magazine March 1982

'Casual Complements' fashion feature

This fashion spread from '82 Dolly really is a winner from start to finish.  It reminds me a lot of Steve Strange of Visage when he was doing the Arabian new romantic look.  It's really sweet, and in particular I love how the pants in the second image have ties around the bottom to amplify that looser at the top tighter at the ankles silhouette.  Also there is something about vintage tights like the white ones in the second last image that seem different to the ones today.  They just seem like better quality or something... the woollen ones I buy now always seem to have some polyester in them which is annoying as they always pill.  Anyway, enjoy these superb images.  Oh and isn't the cover cool - how striking - the covering up of the eye reminds me of I-D Magazine but Dolly style. ;-)
