Camille Clifford (June 29, 1885 – June 28, 1971) was a Belgian-born actress and model, best known as the quintessential “Gibson Girl,” a feminine ideal popularized in the late 19th and early 20th centuries through the illustrations of artist Charles Dana Gibson.
With her hourglass figure, high-piled hair, and elegant demeanor, Clifford became the living embodiment of Gibson's illustrations, symbolizing sophistication and Edwardian beauty.
Though she pursued a short career on stage, Camille Clifford’s fame primarily stemmed from her iconic look, which captured the imagination of the public and cemented her legacy as a fashion and cultural icon of her time. After marrying Captain the Hon. Henry Lyndhurst Bruce, heir to the title of Lord Aberdare, she gradually retired from the spotlight.
