ARIES An Arian is strong minded and a loner - optimistic and active. Arians have more energy and drive than most of us. They are always on the move, busy planning and organising something or other, or off to make new conquests. An Arian's way of thinking is delightfully direct. They face life with enthusiasm, and theirs is never dull or predictable.
CHRISTEL MAROTT Christel (Christel Marott, 1919-1992) was a concept representing a unique artist who, with her very own sense of style and elegance, was always ahead of her time. She was only seventeen when she made her debut as a self-conscious magazine illustrator and continued to illustrate both Danish and foreign weekly and fashion magazines throughout her entire life. Christel became synonymous with her provocative, long-legged girls and their exceptional, vibrant sensuality, at once both sober and rousing. This far-sighted ideal of a girl came to grace girls' books, paper dolls and fashion designs the world over, including magazines such as Vogue and Harpers Bazaar.
