From her earliest modeling days, Birdie finds freedom in fashion. What does fashion mean to her? Have you ever used clothes as armor or to convey something about you?
By Fashion was exciting to her and enabled her to embody a different persona in wearing the clothes. It was like an actress putting on a costume.
Birdie was very insecure and I think used fashion to hide who she really was. It made her feel like a different person than she really was.
I have always enjoyed fashion as a way to express who I am and what I’m drawn to.
Birdie loved clothes and she looked good in them all. She knew how to emphasize her legs and knew that beautiful clothes drew attention. I think most women will dress to impress other women. I know I have dressed to look professional or classy, or trendy, or rich or younger or sexy when the occasion called for it.
Fashion gave her a mask to be what she wanted to be. She gained the confidence she needed when she was decked out and in front of a camera.
