The Tartan Mini Skirt (Bardot arriving at Heathrow 3 Sept. 1966) by London Express


On arrival in London in 1966, following her honeymoon with Gunther Sachs, Bardot declared: 'It is good to have a change. Honeymoon, work, honeymoon, work.' She was coming to London to shoot her new film, Two Weeks in September where she plays a young French woman who is married to a much older Englishman but for two weeks in September finds new love in London. Torn between the stability of her husband and the adventure of her lover, the films tagline deduces Bardot has 'loved as no woman has loved before!'
