Pucci silk jersey, in Bermuda.
Tania Mallet worked as a fashion model and appeared on Vogue covers in the 1960s. In 1964 she played Tilly Masterson in the James Bond film Goldfinger.
Ailsa Garland edited British Vogue in the early 1960s, before Beatrix Miller took over in 1964. Emilio Pucci's printed silk jersey was then a familiar choice for resort dressing.
The interior is in pristine condition and the spine has held up well. The front cover is slightly faded along the top, and the spine has a crease at the bottom edge.
Pristine inside, faded at the top.
Issues from the early 1960s show British Vogue at the start of a decade of change in fashion. This cover links fashion modelling with a later Bond film role.
Original issues of British Vogue attract collectors of fashion photography and magazine history.
Magazines suffer from creased spines, fading and loose pages, so complete issues in good order are assessed with care.
The crossover between fashion modelling and film in the 1960s is a recognised part of the decade's culture.
