The Muse

At a time where art ruled and style had boundaries, Andy Warhol and his “Superstar” created a movement of their own.

When most people think of Andy Warhol very often they solely associate him with his work in the art world. Although his art work created a movement of its own he is also known for wearing many different hats. In the 1960's Andy gathered a few friends and produced "The Factory". The Factory was a studio which Andy used for film making, photography, and as a hangout for various members of the artistic world. Not only was “The Factory” a place for all things creative, but it was also a place where a strong fashion influence could be found.

Among “The Factory” people was Edie Sedwick. Edie Sedwick was an actress and model who was coined with honorable title of Andy’s muse. Her looks were striking and her style was infectious. She was often found wearing everything from a mini dress to gray bob wig-whatever she wore she was sure to gain attention.

Although “The Factory” doors have now closed, Andy’s presence still triumphs with his formal work with Variety magazine. As we celebrate their 40 year anniversary, we also reminisce how his muse continues to influence women style.
