Brigitte Bardot!
When you think of things that are synonymous with France, the Eiffel Tower and fashion top the list. When it comes down to people, Brigitte Bardot has to be one of the most iconic French women of all time.
Hair envy just beginning...
Miss Bardot did many things in her lifetime including modeling, acting, singing, as well as becoming an animal rights activist. Of course she is most notably known for her style.

Audrey Hepburn's style was a huge influence on the 1950's, see here a younger Brigitte with the doe-eyed gamine look
And here again

She was a big influence in different facets like art and music. She was seen with artists like Picasso and Dali, sang with Serge Gainsbourg, and had several songs mention her.
That must have been one hell of a get-together...
Making mod look good
Her style is so iconic and yet does not go out of style
Her style is so iconic that she got a style of neckline named after her, the Bardot, that exposed the shoulders, and her famous messy chic hair is still trending to this day.

Brigitte Bardot is such a great style icon and influences me greatly as a fashion designer. She didn't care about the fashion risks she took and right away they paid off and became iconic. And with sass to match, no wonder she became an idol to so many rebellious girls during the 60's.
See you next Saturday! Stay fashionable kids!
