I have never been to Cuba but whenever I see images of that country it seems as though everything had been put on hold when the revolution happened. It's shabby chic at its very best. These fabulous images are by the hugely talented photographer Desiree Dolron

Romanian postcard by Casa Filmului Acin, no. 120. Photo: Françoise Dorléac andbCatherine Deneuve in Les Demoiselles de Rochefort/The Young Girls of Rochefort (Jacques Demy, 1967). Chic and stylish French actress Françoise Dorléac (1942-1967) is best known as the elder sister of Catherine Deneuve with whom she sang and danced in the musical Les Demoiselles de Rochefort/The Young Girls of Rochefort (1967). Françoise was the first to become a star in the 1960s with films by François Truffaut and Roman Polanski. She seemed set for international stardom when she suddenly died in a car accident at the age of 25. Elegant Catherine Deneuve (1943) is an icon of French cinema who has graced the screen for already more than five decades. She gained recognition in the 1960s for her portrayal of cool, mysterious beauties in classic films of directors like Luis Buñuel, Roman Polanski and François Truffaut. Apart from being a great actress, she is also an archetype for Gallic Beauty. From 1985 to 1989, she succeeded Brigitte Bardot as the model for the national symbol Marianne, seen on French coins and stamps.

The name Simca is taken from the initials of the original company, Ste. Industrielle de Mecanique et Carrosserie Automobile which had its headquarters and factory at Nanterre on the Seine in Paris. In 1967, Bertone was commissioned to upgrade the body of the Simca 1000 Coupé which the then young Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone originally designed in 1962. In September 1967, the 1200S Coupé made its debut. It featured a larger engine of 1204 cc. By fitting two twin choke Solex carburettors, output was an impressive 80 bhp, giving a top speed of 109 mph. The car gained a more muscular appearance thanks to a clever restyle at the front, with the bonnet line extended over a matt black grille flanked by a pair of auxiliary driving lights. The wheels received stylish black centre caps (later to be used on other sporty Simcas) and the interior was upgraded with leather trim available as an option. Despite a price double that of the Simca 1000 Rallye, the 1200S was even more successful than the 1000 Coupé. For the 1970 model year, power was increased to 87 bhp, giving almost 112 mph. This was the fastest standard production Simca ever built. October 1970 saw the fitting of a vinyl roof, and the offering of optional alloy wheels. Production ceased in 1971 after 14,729 examples had been sold.

Manufacturer: Société des engrenages Citroën / Automobiles André Citroën SA, Paris - France Type: DS 21 Engine: 2175cc straight-4 Power: 109 bhp / 5.500 rpm Speed: 178 km/h Production time: 1966 - 1968 Production outlet: 283,325 Curb weight: 1318 kg Special: - In French "DS" is called as "déesse" which means "goddess". This is also the pet name: "goddess of the way". - The technique of DS is developed under the leadership of André Lefebvre. - For that time very spectacular carriage design was from the Italian chief designer of Citroën, Flaminio Bertoni, who also modeled the Traction Avant, the Deux Chevaux and the Ami. - It has a four-speed manual gearbox, a Weber carburettor, a 63 liter fuel tank and front wheel drive. - The DS featured intense roadholding, braking and handling, and hydropneumatic self-leving suspension system. - This model year (1967) still has the "double" headlights. 1968 was the first year of aerodynamic glass enclosing the headlamps on the DS also the first year that feature was outlawed in the US. - While the DS was popular in Europe, it didn't sell well in the United States. Only about 38,000 were sold between 1956 and 1972. It did't have the basic features that American buyers expected to find on such a vehicle: fully automatic transmission, air conditioning, power windows, and a powerful engine.
