E8 ft. Ingrid Boulting

Sighs and Whispers

This week on LADY’s After Hours, fashion and cultural historian Laura McLaws Helms meets with model, actress and yogi Ingrid Boulting. One of the most memorable models of the late 1960s and 1970s, Ingrid Boulting was raised in South Africa and England. Starting as a ballerina she fell into fashion, where she became a favorite of Richard Avedon, David Bailey and Sarah Moon, and appeared in Vogue (all international editions), Harper’s Bazaar, Seventeen and many other magazines and ad campaigns. In 1976 she starred alongside Robert DeNiro in the movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s unfinished novel, 'The Last Tycoon' in 1976. Throughout this period she studied meditation and yoga as a method of grounding herself, and later moved to Ojai, California, where she became a yoga teacher and opened her own studio. In this deep, intimate discussion, we discuss the projections placed on her due to her beauty, healing through yoga and shadow work, and, of course, her experiences in fashion and films. Behind the striking girl in the fashion photographs lies a far more interesting and complex woman.
