Bardot Brigitte ( icon )

The epitome of amoral French sensuality with her deshabille hair and au naturel appearance.















 British Vogue called her
"the sensuous idol, a potent mixture of the sexy and the babyish, a seething milky bosom below a childish pout".









She was known simply as BB ( the French pronounced it "bebe", French for "baby") and the phrase "sex kitten" wwas invented to describe her.









Her narrow trousers and tight black sweater reflect the nonchalant beat style. She also popularized flat ballet pumps and set a trend for not wearing socks in her film  And...God Created Woman ( 1956 ), for ruffles and ringlets, petticoats and prettiness in Les Grandes Manoeuvres ( 1955 ) and for Edwardian dress in Viva Maria ( 1965 ).









Jeanne Moreau wrote that Bardot
"was the real modern revolutionary character for women."
