Vintage Barbra Streisand: Fanny Brice the Funny Girl
There has always been a place in my heart for Ms. Fanny Brice, the Zigfield Girl who made it big. The movie Funny Girl inspired by her life was the first great hit in 1968 starting Barbra Streisand. In addition to being an entertaining film to watch it has 40s inspired 60s fashions. Every scene showcases a drool-inducing new piece of vintage glamor. From hats and gloves, to the over the top Chorus Girl number outfits it is a time capsule and a great example of how clothes can make a movie.
If you are a lover of clothes, vintage or otherwise Funny Girl is a movie that you have to see (or see again).
