Nancy Sinatra? She’s a big boot fan, just like the eponymous film.

That is Faye Dunaway because the last photo at the bottom right is from Bonnie and Clyde - she has her foot on the front bumper of the car.

It’s Faye! I recognized the movie still from Bonnie and Clyde.

I, too, would have to guess Twiggy.

On an unrelated note, I always liked the Pan Am logo.

I have no idea who that is but those are some nasty veiny feet. Also she is old, whoever she is (see photo on lower left). And what’s with the big bird hooker boots?
Jennie Says:

or Goldie Hawn or Diana Ross?

Hey, folks, please remember if it *is* Miss Dunaway, her career started in the ’60’s, and there were some pretty funky things in fashion back then! But they look great in that context.

Forty years from now, our kids will be looking back on what *we* wore, you know.
*shudder*
Good gravy. There are some pix I need to remove from teh interwebs.

Gotta be Faye. Those ’30s-style shoes are actually very flattering on long, skinny feet, aren’t they?

And Victor’s right: It’s all context. That vinyl boot-leggings bit with the Pan-Am logo bag would have been the absolute height of celebrity It-ness in its day. Goldie Hawn would’ve worn them. So much fashion looks silly in retrospect, but it’s fun and mostly harmless.

Someday extremely low-riding jeans will go out the way of leggings and French-cut T-shirts, if they haven’t already — as will tattoos, though those are a wee bit harder to abandon when the look becomes passe.

That awkward stance with the black boot catsuit screams “Emma Peel” to me, so I’ll throw Diana Rigg in there. She’s probably been guessed, though.
