Edi Sedgewick

I saw the film 'Factory Girl' yesterday and i previously didnt know much at all about Edi Sedgewick but aftr watching this it sparked an intrest. I love these photographs down below mianly because of the framming and high contrast of colour.
The link below is a song which Andy Warhol wrote about Edi in his band The Velvet Underground, it describes her rise and fall from fame.




Edie Sedgwick.



Here she comes, you better watch your step
Shes going to break your heart in two, its true
Its not hard to realize
Just look into her false colored eyes
She builds you up to just put you down, what a clown
cause everybody knows (shes a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (shes a femme fatale)
Shes just a little tease (shes a femme fatale)
