“Sharon is a timeless woman, but paradoxically, she curves and turns her lithe body in the playful manner of a carefree tomboy. She comes across as an Italian without makeup, except for the black eyeliner that accentuates her large brown eyes and thick natural lashes. her high cheekbones on an oval Pre-Raphaelite face, and her blush is fresh and bright. Her usual outfit when she is not working is a huge oatmeal sweater and tight jeans ... She apparently does not care much about clothes - and why should she with such a beautiful and a healthy body?
Sharon herself once said: "Deep down, I am completely different. All my life I have been told that I am beautiful. But beauty has nothing to do with me - real me. In any case, you can remain covered up to your neck and that's it. equally sexy. I would like my image to be slightly secretive, simple and down to earth. I love the image of a little girl. "
But when Roman Polanski entered her life, he however had a different idea of her potential.
"I'm trying to make her a little meaner," he said. "She's too cute and everyone sits on her neck. She's embarrassed by her own beauty."
The interviewer discovered that she had "an aura, magic, a curious mystery ... a face of extraordinary beauty and a figure that will not change" and predicted that Sharon Tate would be with us for a long time. It was a just prophecy if twisted fate had not prevented things from going right ... "- excerpted from a CAD magazine article on Sharon, published in February 1970.
