Jane Birkin RIP

Offset

Oh no.  I adored her when I was younger.  Just 76 which isn't that old.

Beautiful 60's icon. Extremely photogenic. Sadly, those in their prime back in the 60s are disappearing from this earth. Singer, actress, model, but I just remember her being one of the faces of that time. I remember her name being talked about by my mother, along with Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton. Dad was more into Raquel Welch and Liz Taylor!

A very sexy woman. The English Parisienne loved by the French. Hooked the guys as one of the two naked girls romping with David Hemmings in 'Blow Up'. Then released 'Je t'aime - moi non plus', one of the the steamiest recordings ever produced and predictably banned by the BBC. Loads of charisma. Later known for her philanthropy and humanitarian pursuits. She was quite a woman. RIP.

Guitar connection #1: She married John Barry whose band recorded the original Bond theme with Vic Flick on guitar.

Guitar connection #2: The film Blow Up also featured The Yardbirds in a club scene, with Jeff Beck doing a (fairly feeble) Pete Townshend impression.

An Hermes Birkin handbag starts at £23 ,000 up to £45,000 depending on the finish . 
Such was her influence on the fashion industry .
