Twiggy's Life Unveiled: Documentary Premieres at Moritz Feed Dog Fashion Film Festival in Barcelona

A documentary about Twiggy, directed by Sadie Frost, premiered at the Moritz Feed Dog fashion film festival in Barcelona. The film explores Twiggy's rise to fame in 1966, when the Daily Express crowned her "the face of the United Kingdom." It delves into her personal life, including her mother's bipolar disorder, a possessive relationship, and a troubled marriage. Frost aimed to capture Twiggy's humility and talent, highlighting the misogyny she faced as a young, beautiful woman. The documentary also touches on uncomfortable and sexist situations, such as an interview with Woody Allen. Twiggy discusses her unconventional look and working-class background, which set her apart from other models of the time. Frost notes the increasing difficulty for individuals to stand out in today's fashion industry, dominated by "nepo babies."
