life: 70 years ago this week, this image by the great Nina Leen appeared on the cover of the November 29, 1948 issue of LIFE magazine. According to LIFE, “The girl appearing on the cover of LIFE this week is named Georgia Hamilton. The dress in which she appears was named and designed by Christian Dior. It is called Abandon, a particularly appropriate title considering the shoulder treatment. The dress and also the hat (Carnegie) worn by Miss Hamilton comprise one of the new restaurant fashions, a fuller report on which appears on page 82. A fuller report on Miss. Hamilton would include facts that she is 23, married, a professional model, mother of a year-old-son, an ardent golfer and would-be actress.” (Nina Leen—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #thisweekinLIFE #LIFEmagazine #NinaLeenhttps://www.instagram.com/p/BqpYIz2giXR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=puw18zi8tnr0 -- source link
