"The Birkin Bag is the ultimate status symbol: wildly expensive, ridiculously hard to get and immediately identifiable. Real Housewives collect it, hip-hop artists rap about it and “Sex and the City” once devoted an episode to it.
Yet, according to Marisa Meltzer’s new biography, “It Girl: The Life and Legacy of Jane Birkin” (Atria Books, out Tuesday), the woman who inspired the pricey Hermés purse was the ultimate bohemian — and a scandalous one at that."

If her daughter Charlotte Gainsborough’s filmography is anything to go by I would question her parenting.
The song Lemon Zest that Charlotte recording with her dad is beyond creepy.
Jane Birkin is great in Evil Under the Sun though!

Interestingly, her uncle, Peter Birkin, was gay and went on trial for "gross indecency"

I'm always amazed by the French and how they make the most weaselly looking people into stars.

Jane did have one of the best entrances in film history when she came down the stairs in the black and white suit to Cole Porter's Just One of Those Things at the end of Evil Under the Sun.
