Happy New Year With Bottoms Up – 2025
Wishing all my Blog Followers a Happy New Year with this 1975 photo called Bottoms Up which I art directed and fashion styled way back then. The hair, by La Coupe’s Kim Lepine for L’Oreal, was a classic one-length bob, angel curled with the bottoms up, just at the ends. The color was a gorgeous Mandarin shade, so new then it had to be flown into New York from Paris. To see the color and more versions as well as the whole collection, CLICK HERE.

Happy New Year. Bottoms Up! – 1975
Happy New Year. Bottoms Up! This straight, all-one-length classic bob, was angel curled on tiny tongs, thin, like a pencil, with the bottoms up, in 1975. The color was a gorgeous Mandarin/Mango shade, so new then it had to be flown in to the US for the photo shoot from La Coupe in Montreal.
