Sassy July 1989









Issue: Sassy 1989

Editorial: Lived-In Looks Photographed by: Steven White
Fashion Editor: Catherine Raphaely

I've seen Ironman twice, so I was attracted to Sassy's 17th issue with the then 23 year old Robert Downey, Jr. on the cover. Inside the above hazy summer spread caught my eye, and instantly I was reminded of various Spring/Summer 2008 collections: Vena Cava, Lanvin, Calvin Klein, Hermes, Dsquared, and Phillip Lim.

Another flashback thought.....the beautiful braid is still a summer classic.

  3. i'm amazed by the sophistication and subtlety of this editorial.
    better than teenVOGUE, ELLEgirl, blah blah blah by a long shot. great cover too. the brush-stroked type-font is very of the moment yet timeless.
    ever on top of the trends, ha ha, i've worn my hair in a braid since age 5. what can i say i'm very attached, literally.
    beautiful and insightful post as usual. bravo!
