This Little Bird

In the mid to late '60s, Marianne Faithfull was famous for her virginal appearance and rock and roll life. It's only fitting that her wardrobe matched both personas: a little bit school girl, a little bit Rolling Stone.
Here are some of my favorite Marianne fashion moments:



Marianne Faithfull photos
Here she is in publicity shots by Gered Mankowitz for Decca, taken in '64. Word on the street is that Marianne is only 16 here! She wears a lovely black dress with an embroidered collar.




May 1st, 1965. Her cute collared dress is reminiscent of a sailor's uniform. These shots are by David Redfern.




Marianne in San Remo for the San Remo Song festival, January 1967.



Going to court with the Glimmer Twins on June 29th, 1967. Photos by Ted West.



Waiting for a verdict outside the courts, August 1st, 1967. Snapped by Len Trievnor.




I'm not sure when these were taken, but I liked them too much to not post them.
