Twiggy’s youthful, androgynous look helped redefine fashionable beauty in the 1960s. Her slender figure, cropped hair, freckles, and dramatic eye makeup contrasted with the curvaceous, glamorous top models of the previous era. Her penchant for miniskirts and short shift dresses made the Swinging London look internationally influential. Slimness and youthfulness subsequently defined the fashion industry during much of the late 20th century.
