Billy Fresh are such a fan of funky, vintage and stylish shots, especially those that showcase absolutely beautiful umbrellas! Our Instagram www.instagram.com/billyfreshshop/ is filled with heaps of funky photos, but today we thought we’d share our Top 5 all-time favourite vintage shots so far:
Marilyn Monroe
This photo says it all, the red and white striped umbrella, the provocative pose, her lovely face and lips. Marilyn can be our Billy Fresh pin-up girl any day…
Slim Aarons- Pool Side
Slim Aarons has a countless number of simply amazing poolside shots. This particular photo just makes us want to travel back in time and sit by the pool under an outdoor umbrella, with a few martinis and in the light of some sunny weather. Love it!
A Beatles Classic
The Beatles were the ultimate band at the time, girls loved them and their songs made us happy and sad and simply emotional. It is no wonder a shot of them, with some of these amazing striped umbrellas made our Top 5!
Vogue it Up
A simple shot, but it made our Top 5 simply because this photo is oozing with style. The model, the umbrella and French beret... this shot is definitely a fashion statement. A lucky find from a 1950’s Vogue magazine.
Pablo Picasso’s Young Love
Finishing off our Top 5 with a love scene, this is a shot of Pablo Picasso and his young sweet heart at the time. What a gentleman protecting her under the shade of a gorgeous vintage beach umbrella. Definitely a photo to remember.
