This photo takes me back. In fact, I remember it vividly because my mother was
able to find a gold–toned buckle just like the one on her silver dress, and she
made an identical dress for my sister in a deep, rich purple.
I was also taken with the idea of weaving ribbons through our hair!

Oh, that is slightly upsetting to hear. I wonder why that poster stated
that she looked wonderful, although wonderful is a relative term for one's
age (Colleen would be 56 years old now) ... She'd always look beautiful to
me, no matter what the situation. Are you talking about age or skin may I
ask?
If Colleen was making the daytime talk show circuit in the mid–90's,
something must have been up, unless they were just discussing retro fashion
on every show.
Thank you for responding. :–)

Yes, Colleen was very short for a model by today's standards, but still she
was 5' 8" in her stocking feet. Colleen's face was always very round, not
too many people realized that from her magazine photos. Her round face kind
of took her out of the running for supermodel status, even though the term
supermodel was just coming into being.
I'm not surprised that she looked middle aged. Depending on the actual year
and air date of the shows, she would have been about 48 years old at that
time.
Do you happen to remember what the discussion was about? Fashion or
personal? In 1981, Colleen was not married.

It was fashion. Vicki Lawrence's husband is a make–up artist and she had a lot personal?
of beauty subjects on her show. She also had a lot of "reunion" themes, i.e.
legendary stars of the forties, fifties. If memory serves me right, this was
legendary models – I believe Sunny Griffin was also on the show.

Thanks, you have a good memory then. I attached 2 advertisements from 1965
to a post that I sent, but it didn't get through one was for Ellen Tracy and
the other was for Laura May. I guess that this newsgroup doesn't allow
photo attachments.
I have written to Oprah online to see if I can get a copy of that tape, but
these appearances may be too long ago for a videotaped copy to be created.

Oh wow! That's a name I haven't heard of in YEARS. I remember her very
distinctly from my teens, from 17, Ingenue, various catalog shoots, and
such! I thought she was soooooo cool and I wanted sooooo much to look
like her, I did my hair as close to hers as I could, but my face was a
bit longer ... and I was a bit shorter, and a bit heavier. :)
she dropped off the face of the earth, or at least retired from the biz.
Back in 1969 or so, I would have definitely considered her to be a
supermodel, or else just under that status. You saw her everywhere.
Curiosity just got the best of me. I did some web searches, and I'm
very surprised there are no fan sites or galleries or anything. Alta
Vista gives only one reference to her, an article on Bulemia which
just mentions her in one sentence. Doing Google gives some of that
and some porn sites, which I didn't even bother clicking, I'm not
*that* curious.
Oh well, so it goes. :)

Doesn't that take you back Cary? That gold–toned buckle must have been a
treasure. I have actually remembered that silver dress photo on and off
throughout the years; that's a Jonathan Logan dress for $32.00, today it
would probably go for $200.00. I must admit that I remember every single
cover as if it were yesterday. But I have also forgotten a lot with respect
to the internal advertising and photos: ads for Gay Gibson, Bobbi Brooks,
Cotton, Meds (made of rayon fibers instead of cotton? – LOL), Etc.
And I guess that I had forgotten how many pages Terry Reno and Lucy Angle
were on.
The weaving of ribbons in hair became really big around that time and the
use of "falls", hair extensions.
Reading these magazines now is really "a trip". Articles written by Senator
McCarthy, and articles about the draft and arch–enemy Richard Nixon. LOL.
Most of these magazines are in good to excellent condition, but the ones
that came in the mail yesterday have an odor (kept in a garage or a cellar).
I've got them airing out while I'm at work, but I may have to place them in
a box with baking soda and see if that absorbs the musty smell.
Regards,
Elliot

Here is a link to my personal favorite cover:
treasure. I have actually remembered that silver dress photo on and off
throughout the years; that's a Jonathan Logan dress for $32.00, today it
would probably go for $200.00. I must admit that I remember every single
cover as if it were yesterday. But I have also forgotten a lot with respect
to the internal advertising and photos: ads for Gay Gibson, Bobbi Brooks,
Cotton, Meds (made of rayon fibers instead of cotton? – LOL), Etc.
And I guess that I had forgotten how many pages Terry Reno and Lucy Angle
were on.
The weaving of ribbons in hair became really big around that time and the
use of "falls", hair extensions.
Reading these magazines now is really "a trip". Articles written by Senator
McCarthy, and articles about the draft and arch–enemy Richard Nixon. LOL.

mother was Elliot,

I was also taken with the idea of weaving ribbons through our hair!

Actually that's one of Colleen's best shots. As the years wore on the
baby–fat came off in order to compete in the Twiggy world.
You could be right about the thread. I hadn't thought of that angle, but I
did make a promise and I like to keep them wherever possible. :–)
Thanx!
