Well on that first one Bosseh -it is definitely the outfit. It is so over the top LOL - good ole Dust, she was so theatrical, and I think that's what I love. Dusty was the whole package I think, not just the voice, but the hairstyle, the mannerisms, the hand movements, the outfits. I think she was one of the first to realise this, and everyone that came after her, learnt that from her. There was a whole heap of female singers who could never have carried that off.
I suppose her hair is really awful on that first one though, but the outfit is so outrageous that you don't notice her hair. Dust had a bad hair day that day for sure.
Carole, yes I think I do prefer her later look, all the curly perms for example, all her messy hairstyles. I liked the bouffant look at the time, as we all had it, but I'm not so keen on it now, it's too neat and tidy. And I absolutely adore her look on the Nothing Has Been Proved DVD, I think she must have pulled out all the stops to get that look, and it was superb. She could compete with anyone. But I hated her look in her thirties mostly. Her twenties, forties, fifties were better I felt.
