Introducing TWIGGY, directed by Sadie Frost, an upcoming documentary focused on the life of the greatest 'IT' girl of all time, Dame Twiggy Lawson.

The world saw her grace the covers of Vogue and Tatler by 17 and the New Yorker magazine devoted nearly 100 pages to the Twiggy "phenomenon" after her arrival in New York. Twiggy shook the world by giving women a whole new look and feel to aspire to. Twiggy brought an elfin androgyny to the forefront and helped revolutionise the accepted image of the female form, giving a voice to a whole new generation of women.
