My gift to you..................Six of the BEST!!!

Sensational, sophisticated, stunning, stylish, stupendous stars among women! I think all women wonderful but here are my six of the best which have influenced me in different ways.

Veruscha
Veruscha, supermodel of the 60s, stands out as one the greatest models of all time, I met her once in the 60s and was completley astonished by her beauty and presence, unusually tall for a model of that era she literally took my breath away. One of the most stunning women I have ever seen!
Daphne Guinness
Daphne Guinness, a fashion icon but does not follow fashion, she has a style which is completely eccentric but amazingly beautiful, a Grand Dame of  the fashion world and a complete one off!
Audrey Hepburn
Audrey Hepburn, who doesn't love Audrey? From Breakfast at Tiffany's to Charade her charm and exquisite beauty both inside and out shine through. A truly amazing humanitarian.  One of the most stylish women of all time. I can watch her films over and over and never get tired of them!
Princess Diana
Princess Diana, our very own Princess, who grew from a naive young girl into a stunning woman, a complex character with a heart of gold she was cut down in her prime. When she died it was like losing a member of my own family. I still miss her!

Grace Kelly
Princess Grace, beautiful, sophisticated and utterly gracious, another wonderful woman taken too soon, her poise and style are timeless, a true Princess.
Isabella Blow 
Isabella Blow, a complete one off, the eccentric muse to the late Alexander MeQueen, she was a style icon in the fashion industry, wonderfully unique, there will never be another Isabella, a true British Eccentric!
I wanted to know what perfume these amazing women wore, yes you know I am a perfume freak!! So, here is what I found out.

Veruscha......    Victoria's Secret Dream body lotion. She was the face of Lanvin's My Sin so perhaps she wore that too?
Daphne Guinness.......Daphne has her own perfume Daphne by Comme des Garcon. I have ordered a sample from the US, the reviews are not good so will make up my own mind when it arrives. It is bound to be very unique and an aquired taste a bit like Daphne herself! Will let you know what it's like
Audrey Hepburn........L'interdit espcially created for her by the house of Givenchy, she was Givenchy's muse and friend, Joy, Chamade
Princess Diana.........Tea Rose on her wedding day, so her! (Coincidence that I posted about it recently) 24 Faubourg, Diorissimo, Creed fragrances.......
Grace Kelly..........Fleurissimo especially created for her wedding day by the house of Creed to compliment her wedding boquet, a boquet of white flowers, I have it and it is divine!
Isabella Blow.......What else? Fracas, my signature fragrance as well. In my opinion one of the most iconic fragrances ever made by the brilliant Robert Piguet. Once you have experienced Fracas you will never forget it, or the wearer lol!
