I first saw Bilitis as a teen, probably illegally staying up well past my bedtime to sneak a look at this foggy, long limbed girl extravaganza. It's quite truly terrible and exquisite all at once. Patti D'Arbanville is so very lovely, springing around the screen like bambi. I've always had a soft spot for the soft focus David Hamilton look. All vintage lace and loose buns. It reminds me too of British Style Genius last week, and it's archive footage of Laura Ashley's store openings in the 70s. Ah.. I think it all stems from me falling for this lady and her broderie bodices.
