Celia Hammond

[iluvjeisa]

Celia Hammond was a supermodel in the 60s. She was one of David Bailey's favourite models but unfortunately she grew tired of the biz and retired early. Today she runs an animal rescue center, and as I understand it she has devoted her life to protecting discarded or mistreated pets (http://www.celiahammond.org/). Here's a shot from 1968 or so from Vogue by David Montgomery.

Oops, that last one is from the early Seventies, not 1965.
