"When I went to Hollywood in 1927, the girls were wearing lumpy sweaters and skirts . . . I was wearing sleek suits and half naked beaded gowns and piles and piles of furs." ~ Louise Brooks
Lets take a look at the one time lover of Greta Garbo and Vintage Fashion Icon Louise Brooks.
She is the epitome of a sleek, sophisticated, streamlined Deco fashion queen.

"Brooks is considered one of the first naturalistic actors in film, her acting being subtle and nuanced compared to many other silent performers. The close-up was just coming into vogue with directors, and her almost hypnotically beautiful face was perfect for this new technique. Brooks had always been very self-directed, even difficult, and was notorious for her salty language, which she didn't hesitate to use whenever she felt like it. In addition, she had made a vow to herself never to smile on stage unless she felt compelled to, and although the majority of her publicity photos show her with a neutral expression, she had a dazzling smile. By her own admission, she was a sexually liberated woman, not afraid to experiment, even posing fully nude for "art" photography,[19] and her liaisons with many film people were legendary, although much of it is speculation."
"I have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you, it`ll be with a knife." ~ Louise Brooks
Lots of love,
