It was the time of Davy Crockett coonskin caps,
hoola hoops and a strange obsession with chlorophyll. Sleek and Chic
was the style for 1950 and Suzy Parker was its essence. A model who
graced the covers of over 60 magazines, she had the uncanny ability to project
just the right look in any clothing. Born in Queens, New York and
raised in San Antonio, Texas, she came by her chameleon like quality honestly.
She became the signature face of Coco Channel and the first model to
earn $200 per hour. In 1957, she broke into acting with a performance
in 'Funny Face' with Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire. Her screen credits
include 'Kiss Them for Me' (1957) and 'Best of Everything' (1959). The
'It Girl' of the fifties died at the age of 70, but her photographs and
films live on to remind us of her beauty and versatility #N180 Three piece suit featuring a narrow sheath skirt with rear split and wide skirted unlined jacket with contrasting cuffs and rollback collar.
