Twiggy, who was born Lesley Hornby, was a 60s pop icon (supermodel, actress and singer) known for her large eyes and thin build.


Twiggy was discovered and offered a modelling contract when she was working in a hair salon. She was sixteen and weighed 41kg.


Because of her thin build image, she kept her childhood nickname, Twiggy.


With her short androgynous hair-cut, fake XXL eyelashes and stylish outfits, she created a new look and became a style icon, copied by many teens.


Twiggy was adored by public from the start and in 1966 she was declared the Face of '66.
