Jean Shrimpton, most commonly known in the 1960s, when she broke out into the modelling scene at only 17 years old. She was quickly considered one of the worlds first supermodels. She was an icon of 'Swinging London' and appeared on many covers, including Vogue, Elle and Harpers Bazaar. With this in mind, I think it is fair to say she was truly iconic in the 1960s world of fashion.
'The Shrimp' as she was commonly nicknamed was credited for some monumental fashion firsts, including being the first to launch the ever popular mini skirt in 1965.
Jeans natural beauty and effortlessly chic style is, in my opinion, what then and even now keeps the public interested and inspired. She always managed to pull off that vintage style, that we have all desired at some point.
