THE 60S - THE GOOD LIFE

Peter Sellers

Sir Alec Guinness

The art of Sir Alec Guinness can only be described in superlatives. It's scope makes him one of the greatest character actors of our era.

Some years younger, Peter Sellers, another englishman, is proving himself to be a worthy disciple of the man he consIders the Master. Quiet, soft spoken, almost self-effacing, both have the extraordinary quality of total absorption, of losing themselves in a role to create an entirely new identity.

The Good Life

THE EYES OF PABLO

MELVIN SOKOLSKY

For anyone who likes to taste, see, smell, feel, to be jarred occasionally, to laugh often, to sense their own life and that of others, New York is a festival. To those who come, or come through our pages, greetings to the Fair, the city and Bazzar.

THE EYES OF PABLO

MELVIN SOKOLSKY

The dazzling faces above: petal smooth and almond eyed, and dripping wet with delight are the makeup fancies of Pablo of Elizabeth Arden, an Italian who has an eye that is as sure as his talent. Pablo is mad about eyes, exaggerated eyes; he draws them bigger, rounder, with a cat's eye glow that widens out with expression.

Lately the chicest women in the world have discovered that the bluntest cuts of all can be the kindest. These short, precise, swinging haircuts and geometric, four-square evening curls have already made the inspired young English hairdresser, Vidal Sassoon, famous on both sides of the ocean.

HOLLYWOOD IS: THE VENTURERS

people make the world go round

Harper's Bazaar January 1963

Richard Avedon

Venturers

toward the unknown…

In Japan, it is believed that with the dawn of the New Year all our slates are wiped clean. The cares, dilemmas and disasters of the past magically fall away, leaving each of us in essence newborn. If this concept enchants, it takes more than enchantment to give it reality. To be a new being, one must dare to crack the hardened crust of custom – even one’s own cherished customs – and confront one’s self and the world with a sense of venture and a mind as open to wonder as a child’s. This issue is devoted to that questing sense – in fashion, in thought, and even in fantasy. The opening pages provide a brief look at a few of those free spirits in the arts and sciences who are, perhaps, the truest venturers toward the unknown. Which of their innovations will prove valid and revelatory remains to be seen. But the direction of man’s future depends in large measure on the vision, courage and applications of explorers.
