In May 1970, Patrick Lichfield photographed the celebrated Swedish actress and style icon Britt Ekland for Vogue UK. This iconic fashion shoot took place on the sprawling grounds of Lichfield’s ancestral home, Shugborough Hall in Staffordshire, England. The editorial perfectly captured the defining transition into 1970s bohemian luxury and romantic, outdoor-focused fashion imagery.
Around 1970, Ekland starred alongside Michael Caine in the British crime film Get Carter (1971) and later as Bond girl Mary Goodnight in The Man with the Golden Gun (1974). Lichfield’s portraits of Ekland, both for editorial assignments and personal portraits, captured her signature blonde bombshell aesthetic paired with 1970s fashion staples like tailored leather, knee-high boots, and velvet ensembles.
