I meant smashing as one would say it in its context. As a complimentry adjective.i don't know what you mean by 'smashing', but i wouldn't say the look is attractive. Â she looks like a lesbian in that picture.
She was bisexual by the way.

That's not your fault. If your look is so ambiguos that people cannot tell gender, then either change your look or deal with it. Was the person offended?I once called one Sir by mistake in a store somewhere.
She had a military cut, and wire glasses.

I think that a woman who will go to a tailor for a bespoke garment or garments is very glamourous. Somewhat more so than one who orders haute couture.Years ago a customer came in for shirts.
Rather strange and squat looking.
Only when My hand brushed a very smooth cheek while going for a neck measurement did I realize that my customer was a woman and not a man.
I made many button down oxford shirts for this customer over the years.
I never questioned anything. Just wrote up the bill and thanked (him) for the order.
Ken, I'm pretty sure I know what book that is. If it's what I'm thinking, the book is about the work of a make-up artist from Louisiana named Kevyn Aucoin. My friend showed me her copy; that man could do some simply incredible things. Sadly, he died in May 2002. If you can find it, I'd like to see some pictures, because they really are impressive.My sister has a book--something to do with makeup--in which the author took some movie stars and did their makeup/dressed them up to look like certain icons. There's one of, like, Charlize Theron or something done up like James Dean. And there's one of Christina Ricci done up like a porcelain doll. I'll try to find the book and post some pictures. It's really interesting how good they look.
Oh, I love the Hedwig movie. And that I believe is David Bowie. The others I do not recognize.Of course, the other side of this coin is what Hedwig called the "crypto-gay boys". While none of them are gay, they all went for pretty androgynous looks at some point in their careers.
Thank you. She is one of my favorite photogenic people.LabelKing-- Thank you, thank you, thank you. for the pictures of Marlene Dietrich. (And if "smashing" isn't le mot juste, I'd like to know what is!Good heavens, if more lesbians looked like her, I'd. . . . No, on second thought, I guess I wouldn't. But, seriously, guys. Don't overlook sexually ambiguous females. (And be sure to keep a record of what you learn from them!You won't regret it. Mike
The other two are Iqqy Pop and Lou Reed. They are like, easily three of my favourite musicians. I loved Hedwig and the Angry Inch as well. Hedwig;The others I do not recognize
It was really funny and the music was great. There wasn't much in the way of classic men's style but Hedwig fits perfectly in the topic.Our East Berlin apartment was so small my mother made me play in the oven
