Sylvie Vartan: was born in Iskretz, Bulgaria in 1944, and spent most of her childhood there. It wasn't until 1952 that the Vartan family packed up and immigrated to Paris. The Paris life agreed with her- she excelled in school, mastered the French language.
Sylvie Vartan made her solo debut in 1961 on RCA Records with a song called "Quand Le Film Est Triste" ("When The Film Is Sad").The love for Sylvie Vartan was instant; the French went absolutely mad for her! Who could resist her golden-blonde locks, petit frame, and doll face? She was gorgeous, smart, and a blossoming pop singer. By 1965, Sylvie had become a French idol in the truest sense. She married rock n'roll pretty boy, Johnny Halliday (often dubbed the "French Elvis") at an extravagant wedding reception with over 2,000 people in attendance, and hundreds of fans loitering outside the church. She toured Japan, South America, and the United States. And by the end of '66, she gave birth to her first child, David.

She has such a versatile face, I keep thinking it's another girl.
She is adorable! Thanks for always introducing me to these amazing, stylish women. I wanted to let you know that I tagged you on my blog with a Kreativ Blogger award. Cheers!!
What a great collection. Isn't she gorgeous - from delightful poppet to confident older woman with a hint of mystery and bags of style. The slightly older Sylvie has the look of actress Georgina Hale about her, I think. It's the eyes!
I have linked your collection to a review I've posted. Hope you don't mind.
Kind regards, Ian aka vic
