A brilliant piece of fashion history in this 1960s Butterick Young Paris Designer original sewing pattern from Mia Fonssagrives and Vicky Tiel.Vicky Tiel and her partner Mia Fonssagrives launched the miniskirt and lace panty hose in Paris in 1965. Vicky went on to design such fabulous dresses as the red dress Julia Roberts wore to the opera in the movie Pretty Woman, while Mia left the design team and went on to become a practicing artist who continues to sculpt, paint and create fine jewelry.

Dear Sandmarg. I am a PETER MAX collector and uber-fan of his historic accomplishments. LAst year you had a print of the Car PANOPTICON, and now that I am writing a book on PETER, I wanted to make reference on the 1964 exhibition, so I wander if you kept some images of the print in a good resolution and relevant information on this event that I could use.
Thanks,

Hello Ed
Here's a link http://www.etsy.com/listing/64815992/1965-peter-max-panopticon-cars-and-new
The original was from the American magazine Horizon and sadly I didn't keep a copy of the image.
