Inspiration: Mia Farrow and Jean Seberg


These 1960's screen sirens lit up the screen with their Vidal Sassons- esque crops and classic cinematic style. Both Jean Seberg and Mia Farrow look the part of the quintessential leading lady, and their acting chops don't disappoint either in their respective roles in Jean- Luc Godard's Breathless and Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby.

Inspiration: A Single Man

Tom Ford's stylish screen adaptation of Christopher Isherwood's 1964 novel is an instant classic. With its impeccable photography, perfect costumes, and extremely talented (not to mention gorgeous) all-star cast, Ford's interpretation of this beautiful story of loss, identity, and the human condition places him among the few directors who, out of an age-old story, are able to create a unique, inspiring vision and cinematic gold.
