And you Aerosmith types might have to google Twiggy....and Michelle Phillips...
Uhmm....

Look closely at those photos and you'll find several anachronisms that indicate that the photos were stages. Carefully but not perfectly. Add in the overall "look" and it's all a miss instead of a hit and thats coming from someone who did photographic illustration for a living for a long time.

So they're not vintage. And?


What's wrong with them? I think they look terrific.

Either that or they put this outfit together out of someones grandmothers closet! Red and black jacket paired up with brown leather and tan pants? Yech!

The girls OK I guess. (Especially if it's your sister!) The bikes perfect but nothing else fits, including the building with the service station signs, thats obviously not a service station! I cant even figure out whether thewy were photographing the bike of the chick.

Just awful...!

Thats also an extremely well done photo illustration. The background looks period, the bike is a chopped vintage bike (Check out the front end and pipes.) and the model is wearing a vintage outfit, has a vintage hair style and makeup and the lighting is broad and flat. Only the shoes give it away and I can easily overlook that detail, because they sorta fit the look.

Who took this photo?
