Quote of the Week, Valley of the Dolls and Beyond Valley of the Dolls Fashions, Kerstien has more updates for her Sharon site and another artist who does some cool work

Quote of the Week:

By Photographer Peter Evans:

"The imperfect couple. They were the Douglas Fairbanks/ Mary Pickford of our time... cool, nomadic, talented and nicely shocking.

Their 'Pickfair' (Sharome?) was a movable mansion, a roomy rebellion. Curious, unafraid, they helped demolish the ancient Hollywood image of what movie stardom was all about.

They became part of the 'anti-establishment' establishment. They became rich but never regal."


Here is a lovely movie poster for Valley of the Dolls:

And speaking of VOTD, there is a mention of one of Sharon's outfits from it being used for Beyond the Valley of the Dolls:

Sharon wore this outfit first in VOTD.

Then, Dolly Read (in the middle) wore the exact same outfit in BTVOTD.
