Before Marilyn Monroe, before Madonna, before Taylor Swift there was Clara Bow®. THE ORIGINAL “IT GIRL”™.

Clara Bow® was an American actress who rose to stardom during the silent film era of the 1920s. She appeared in over 50 films and quickly become a national sex symbol. With her signature dark eyes, red lips and star shaped beauty marks she was the epitome of the roaring twenties.

Recently, Clara Bow® has found an unexpected connection to modern pop culture through todays IT GIRL, Taylor Swift. Her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, features a song named after Clara Bow® on track 16.

In true Taylor style there will be plenty of incorporated elements of Bow's style and persona into her own music, videos and performances, demonstrating the enduring influence of this pioneering film star across generations.
