sylvie moderne

i'm huge fan of sylvie vartan... and magazine covers are one of my main passions. so you can only imagine how much i dig magazine covers featuring sylvie vartan. so cool, this issue of 'mademoiselle age tendre.' sylvie is rocking something that vaguely resembles the outfit simon le bon wore in the video for 'the reflex.' technically speaking, sylvie is not French, she was born in Bulgaria. she grew up in France, and became one of the first women in rock from that area of the world. she was eventually personally acquainted with the Beatles and performed as their opening act in many European dates. it is not difficult to find photos of her with the lads in the early to mid '60's. many say that is HER little blue skirt and legs on the back cover of 'abbey road.' i love sylvie vartan.
