That style is straight out of the Hurell/Gibbons/etc. era of the 20's - 40's movie stills.

Personally, it is my least favorite of the pictures that George Hurrell took of Stevie. I like these better.

According to Wikipedia, "He officially retired in 1976 but would still take photographs if he was particularly interested in the subject." That's our girl, bringing a renowned photographer out of retirement.

I don't like all that posed movie-still **** with Stevie in it. I like Stevie in a leotard & boots onstage in 1978, singing Gold Dust Woman or Blue Letter. In my mind, Stevie isn't Rita Hayworth. She's Stevie Nicks. She's a hippie rock star in a gigaband.

HEY! She did not... I think she looks nice in these pictures. Well, the second one. The first one, she looks like she's ready to burst into tears and her face looks kinda square-ish. The shot Hurrell took of just her alone is good, too.

Yeah, for me she looks alot better (and comfortable) when she's a little on the plain side - it suits her better. Not the glam shots, and not these, she looks a little stiff - so does Stevie frankly in some of them. Doesn't really go along with the mental image of what you would think either of them would be.
