I have looked at magazine covers and fashion shots, as well as some short films by Andy Warhol. The earliest images I have been able to find for the socket line are from 1965: Jean Shrimpton for Glamour, Twiggy for Vogue, and Eddie Sedgwick from her Andy Wharhol "phase". Mad Men, which is a really well researched series (I admire them for their strict adherence to what is historically accurate), has not shown that socket line yet either. We have seen makeup evolving all the time in the series from the early 1960s onwards, so I think we are almost there! <br />Caroline Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13658627175377063468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8593523790085629458.post-71115940705417621872013-01-03T23:22:43.602+01:002013-01-03T23:22:43.602+01:00I've just watched the Colin Firth film, A Sing...I've just watched the Colin Firth film, A Single Man. It is supposed to be set in November 1962 but Julianne Moore is shown with a socket line over her eyes. I thought 1962 was too early for this and you seem to agree that it wasn't fashionable until later in the decade. Do you have any firm date when socket lines became part of '60s make up? middlesexmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08577526844516999955noreply@blogger.com
