Brigitte Bardot was an iconic beauty who was much more than the sum of her parts. May she rest in peace.
Photographs of 12-Year-Old Brigitte Bardot taken by Boris Lipnitzki while attending Mrs. Bourgat’s ballet class on the Rue Spontini, Paris in 1946.


Brigitte Bardot made her first appearance at the 6th International Cannes Film Festival to promote the film Manina, la fille sans voiles or The Girl in the Bikini (1952). Pictured here in 1953 she’s just 19 and looks more the aspiring ballerina she once was than the mind-blowing sex symbol and icon she would become.
