ARCHIVAL:
Included alongside stories on Truman Capote’s zoo, Diane von Furstenberg’s “life at the top,” and upcoming fall fashions in the July 1976 edition of Vogue was an article called “Beauty: Natural Plus.” The feature described the health and beauty routines of CHARLOTTE RAMPLING, who was photographed in her St. Tropez villa by HELMUT NEWTON for the accompanying images.
