 : Crumby and Twiggy


Crumby and Twiggy

Jul. 07, 1967 - Sweden's Answer to Twiggy meets the Genuine Article.: In stockhelm 800 girls turned up for the competition to find a Mark Two Twiggy. And no sooner had the judges chosen 16-year old Kerstin Linberg than she was nicknamed Crumby and packed off to London to meet the genuine article. Yesterday the encounter took place. It was immediately clear that Crumby was a good two inches taller than Twiggy, but at 33-21-33 she seemed to have approximately the same unvital statistics. However, they posed for pictures swinging round a lamp post and one or two people loyally commented that you honestly couldn't tell them apart. There was only one surprising moment - when Crumby announced firmly. I do not want to be a model. It is nothing to live on. Twiggy looked rather taken aback.
