Twiggy<\/a> to me is that she evolves with time, and I think I\u2019ve done similar things in my life where I don\u2019t want to be or do just one thing.<\/p>\n\n“And I don\u2019t want to be told I can\u2019t do something because of my age. I don\u2019t want to be pigeonholed. You can do anything whenever you want really, if you really put your mind to it.”<\/p>\n
\nSadie relished the experience of directing the Twiggy documentary.<\/p>\n
\nShe explained: “Life is about taking risks, and Twiggy is a huge testament to that. To tell her story has been such an honour.”<\/p>\n
\nEarlier this month, Twiggy explained how her life was changed by a trip to a hair salon.<\/p>\n
\nThe 77-year-old model was initially discovered in improbable circumstances, after a fashion editor saw a photo of her in a London hair salon.<\/p>\n
\nTwiggy told People: “It was mad, really.<\/p>\n
\n“I couldn\u2019t have planned any of it. If I\u2019d gone to a modelling agency and said \u2018I\u2019d like to model,\u2019 they\u2019d have turned me away. I was too short. I was too small. I just didn\u2019t have the measurements.”<\/p>\n
\nIn 1966, Twiggy headed to a salon in preparation for a night out.<\/p>\n
\nThe iconic star said: “It was serendipity, because I went to that salon to have my hair styled, and Leonard [Lewis, the celebrity hairdresser], saw me and said, \u2018Can I cut your hair?\u2019<\/p>\n
\n“The funny thing was, I didn\u2019t want my hair cut, because I was a mod, and I liked it long and parted in the middle.<\/p>\n
\n“[But] because I was so timid and in this posh Mayfair salon, I was too shy to say no to him!”<\/p>\n
\nTwiggy ultimately walked out of the salon with her iconic pixie cut, and she now admits that the distinctive look changed her life.<\/p>\n
\nShe said: “The photographer, Barry Luttigam, that was the first shot he did of me, which is amazing really, because it became the most famous shot. He just pulled me in front of the camera and said, \u2018Look in the lens’, which is what I did.”<\/p>\n
