NYLON Magazine - September 2007 - (Page 66) 2 1 3 FOXY BRADY “Here’s the story of a lovely lady who was bringing up three very lovely girls ” Who could forget the saccharine reprise (and Hollywood Squares style grid) that opened every episode of The Brady Bunch? And perhaps most memorable was eldest sister Marcia––she of the golden, center-parted Breck-girl locks, perennially flawless skin, and consistently groovy ensembles. She was the girl you (and Jan) loved to hate. Even a set of braces and a swollen nose––cause by Peter’s poorly aimed football toss––didn’t distract from her beauty. And the teenage boys couldn’t get enough (poor Jan and her imaginary boyfriend George Glass just couldn’t compete), even though Marcia had room in her heart for only one man, Monkee Davy Jones—she was, after all, president of her high school’s DJ fan club, and even managed to book him for their prom. Though actress Maureen McCormick is better known nowadays as the winner in the VH1’s celeb battle of the bulge, we prefer to remember her as Marcia, Marcia, Marcia. 7 4 5 private icon: marcia brady 6 1. shoes by camper, $165; 2. dress by gap, $50, and top by eliza gran, $238; 3. cardigan by volcom, $68; 4. top by a.p.c, $183; 5. sheer blonde dream creme instant silkener by john frieda, $5.50; 6. jeans by 7 for all mankind, $198; 7. bag by kangol, $325. still lifes: chika kobari. marcia brady courtesy of retna.
