In 1949, a girl was born in a London suburb who, 16 years later, would revolutionise the world of beauty. With her short haircut and mesmerisingly androgynous look, she made the front page of the Daily Express and was nicknamed Twiggy. Unlike many of her peers, she managed to turn the moment of fame into a long-lasting career.
